Meaning
What does Devil’s Threesome mean?
Devil’s Threesome is the preferred phrase, by which hardcore Christians and conservatives are referring to a ménage a trois, performed by two men and one woman.
Possibly because the rate of men to women makes the scale dip slightly toward homosexuality, or because it is two tempters taking an innocent woman to sin.
Nobody knows, since people condemning the practice as such probably never really tried it, so they don’t really know, what they are advocating against.
Origin
What's the origin of Devil’s Threesome?
The origin of the phrase is hard to trace back, as it had been a part of the English language for quite some time.
It most likely comes from the medieval era, when religion still had a strong grip on the superstitious minds and advocated against such “primal impulsions”.
Spread & Usage
How did Devil’s Threesome spread?
Threesomes had been a part of the human experience for millennia, despite the attempts at suppressing it.
Ever since the love generation alienated themselves from the binds of Christian dogmas and our western culture became more relaxed and malleable, threesomes as well as other sexual kinks started to be accepted, as well as spread, thanks to the internet and the wide array of data and recorded footage available to the average internet dweller.
The Devil’s Threesome is still a living expression, with several Urban Dictionary entries explaining the meaning of it since 2007.
