• A ménage à trois is the French term describing a relationship or domestic arrangement in which three people, often a married couple and another lover, share a sexual relationship, although the relationship might or might not involve all three persons having sexual relations with each other. The French phrase literally translates as household of three.
    It is also used to refer to an arrangement where three people share sexual relations, and this has become the predominant definition. Some also use it to describe any sex act involving three people, otherwise known as a threesome. Ménage à trois, two women with one man, has become more common, perhaps due to its presentation in porn films. There are ménage à trois arrangements involving two men and one woman, and these are also becoming more common.
    Sometimes ménage à trois is called Hot Wives, referring to a married woman who has sex with men other than her spouse, with the husbands consent. In most cases the husbands take a vicarious pleasure in their wives enjoyment, or enjoy watching, hearing, or knowing about their wives adventures. Husbands may also take part by engaging in threesomes, or arranging dates for their wives.
