The Double Standard

"We are comfortable with the double standard."

As many of you probably have noticed, some have commented on and yet others have inquired about by way of e-mail, Ally did and does continue to state this about our HW relationship. Sometime back in October, occasional reader and commentator Merlin asked how Ally feels about me with another woman. I just reread my response and thought it relevant to the "double standard" issue. That is a good question. Ally has responded to that question a number of different ways. I have heard that 1) I can have sex with who ever I want, 2) nobody and 3) a pre agreed and identified person(s) that we already know. I guess I can, but it really doesn't matter. I have little interest in being with other women sexually. Sure I look. I even talk. Hell, I even dance and flirt. But, in my first marriage, I behaved very poorly, and probably slept with nearly as many women after I was married than I had before I was married. That is not the case this time. Frankly, Ally is all the woman I can handle at the moment. ;) Of course, should we get together with a cute couple that wants to play, that is a different story. I liked Merlin's response to my answer.
A good answer--if your pleasure comes from watching her enjoy sex with others, her policy toward your outside activities is irrelevant.

Bacon really doesn't seem all that interested at playing either. Unless it is with another cute couple...hmmm!! I see a common thread here!! ;-)

Interesting to see you've given this a bit more thought . . . and I appreciate that my comments have been thought-provoking.

While most of our play has been together as a swinging couple; it is hot to watch SW getting fucked. While I am not a "creame pie" man, the after taste is a turn on. We have had a few MFM threesomes and I have enjoyed those as much as our FMF threesomes.
