Looking for a word....

[samvara]

Is there a word that means 'multiple bed partners' that doesn't leave room to assume sex happened at different times? Threesome and foursome are very specific, I just want a word that means more than two at once.

Orgy?

I'm thinking maybe 3some_plus or some other tag, orgy doesn't quite convey what I'm trying to come up with here - it's for tagging on delicious. I've a new project!

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

In fact on that note - do you use delicious and do you use the drill down function?

It makes sense in my head but maybe only there ;-(

Lucky

Ah see you say that, but there's an increased risk of elbows :p

[mynxii.livejournal.com]

When you find one, let me know - I could use it!

Also, as far as that goes, generally what I do now is refer to sharing the bed with someone as opposed to sleeping with them...

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

Oh I specifically mean for sex!

[mynxii.livejournal.com]

Ah well then :P Obviously for once my mind was above the gutter :P

Moresome is always fun :)

moresome is an awesome word!! *steals*

[mynxii.livejournal.com]

*grins* as long as someone else likes it :)

orgy?

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

Orgy kinda implies semi organised debauchery, I just want a sort of group sex designation dammit!

[wolflullaby.livejournal.com]

spontaneous + orgy = sporgy?

Eww... that sounds kinda sticky!

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

Eww!

[scotsnow.livejournal.com]

Bachannal?

Although that can also imply carousing, drinking, etc.

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

Too many implications!

[chaosmanor.livejournal.com]

Co-sleepers? Cuddle buddies? Fellow blanket pals?

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

It has to specifically mean for the purpose of sex!

Menage et Many.

entanglement

Its a linguistic niche that needs to be filled, I agree, but I don't have a good suggestion. As you point out, words like orgy have connotations. And 'moresome' is too cute.

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

The best so far is 'group sex' which doesn't exactly support 'threesome' in my head.

[mynxii.livejournal.com]

hah! I'll give you cute :P

[strangedave.livejournal.com]

You'll give me cute, where a 'moresome' is cute? I'm hoping this is a roundabout way of promising me a group sexual encounter ;-)

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

Or diabetes :p

[mynxii.livejournal.com]

*blush*

meep! :) i'm not making absolute statements atm, save to say that threesome and moresome are high on my list of things to do.

This is probably a bit late to join this conversation, but polyamory? Doesn't quite say what you want it to say, but is *kind* of there.... :)

[black-samvara.livejournal.com]

That would totally work if I was trying to describe a relationship - I'm more looking for a word that covers casual sex though.

A linguistic void just waiting to be filled!
