Can you prepare yourself for group sex?

Group sex involves three or more participants. If more than four members engage in sex and it becomes an orgy, then sex choices such as what you do become blurred through peer pressure. Always remember to assert your right not to take part in activities that make you feel uncomfortable.

Group sex can take many forms. A classic example is where no one knows each other … usually at a sex party or cruising area etc. It can also come from a partnership where two of the participants know each other intimately and the other participant(s) are less known. There are also engagements where all parties know each other intimately, or very rarely where all parties know each other equally. These combinations heavily test relationship trust and strength. Group sex is likely to have the least emotional harm on individuals where all parties are unknown and fully understand the consequences of their actions. Most people don’t. Group sex also carries it’s own health risks, primarily an increased chance of transmitting STDs. Participants should ensure extra condoms are available to decrease this risk. Other risks include drug taking, either mild drugs like “poppers” amyl nitrite or alcohol or heavier drugs like cocaine. Taking drugs makes individuals less responsible to themselves and others, and even more susceptible to risk.

Threesomes are most successful when there are two actives and one bottom. Two or three bottoms could lead to a “milder” less active engagement. This is fine in some situations, particularly those where “straight” men engage in a circle jerk or mutual masturbation … which strangely somehow further boosts their assertion of male masculinity. The situation with two actives and one bottom allows for two very clear and singular personalities: both actives taking turns to pleasure the bottom or even trying double penetration (which will need practice and building up to but can be extremely pleasurable). Light S&M whipping and smacking the bottom by the inactive top (often whilst receiving oral sex) can give greater awareness and sensations all-round.

Foursomes can involve one couple and two lesser-known participants, two couples or all unknown participants. The last two groupings are more favourable from an emotional p.o.v because there’s less tension and less likelihood of individuals feeling inadequate or jealous. These groups usually start as two parings engaging in separate sex alongside each other … progressing to all four engaged with each other. Be aware to have plenty on condoms and lube available. An enjoyable but soft version of group sex is the daisy chain where the group forms a circle and performs oral on one person while another performs oral on him and this forms a closed chain. An all-anal intercourse form is the train fuck where all people make a line and penetrate the person in front. The person at the front is being stimulated by the anus only, the two behind by anal and penis stimulation and the last by penis stimulation only. This form while quite a fantasy is in reality only successfully seen in porn films – the motions of bodies are often too great for this position to last long. Foursomes are far more effective when there’s three actively engaging in a combination of anal and oral sex and a fourth participant being quite passive, caressing sensitive areas, sometimes engaging in oral sex. The participants should change positions as it will be more enjoyable for all, though must be aware to use and change condoms regularly to reduce likelihood of cross-contamination. The art of bukkake, ejaculating on another’s face (usually the most passive member) is common in porn films, but much less likely to happen in real group sex.

Group sex is a high risk activity both for spreading STDs and for testing emotions as well as the strength of relationships. It can be enjoyed immensely but needs consideration.
