Guardian columnist says threesomes can work

In last Thursday’s Guardian, Pamela Stephenson Connolly responds to a man whose male lover says he is interested in involving another man in their life and who is afraid it could cause problems in their relationship. I’m quite impressed with the column (here).

She says: “Threesomes (whether purely sexual or otherwise) can work, but the setting up of any new situation must be very carefully negotiated between all parties to avoid conflicts, jealousies, resentments and the many other problems that can arise.” I’d agree with all this.

Nice to see that there are newspaper agony aunts who are open to the idea that good relationships don’t have to be monogamous. Although she does slip up in assuming that a man with a male partner is gay…
