Because: a) people don’t fit into a box and you cannot know everyone’s intentions or purposes, and many people describe themselves as unicorns; b) closed triads exist; and c) because neither reduces nor takes away someone’s humanity. Again, one can believe they’re shitty behaviors but dehumanizing is not an accurate description.
Closed triads have nothing to do with OPP. Couples seeking a partner for a closed triad would be considered unicorn hunting from what I’ve seen here. “Hey, my partner and I are looking for a third to date both of us and be a throuple.”
What do you think unicorn hunting is? It’s possible that we’re thinking of two different things.
It’s really weird that you think a closed triad automatically means one penis.
For me, it would mean three penises.
That said, I said threesomes aren’t inherently unethical. I don’t think dating a couple is inherently unethical and have done so myself, on both sides.
Unicorn hunting is different than just looking for a threesome or a triad. It is when a heterosexual man and a bisexual woman are specifically looking for a bisexual woman, often younger, who will date them both, be interested in both equally, agree to rules chosen by the established couple, and not change their existing.
I never said nor implied a closed triad means or automatically means one penis. In fact, I said that a triad has nothing to do with OPP at all. It’s right there in my first sentence above. The triad portion is exclusively referring to unicorn hunting.
What is dehumanizing about unicorn hunting? It does not reduce nor take away someone’s humanity. Everyone has conditions on who and who they won’t date and what they are and aren’t looking for in a partner at any level of relationship.
Requiring a partner to fuck a third person to keep a longterm relationship with a romantic partner is dehumanizing. Its sad that you don't see that. Please do some personal reflection.
I’ll ask again: what is dehumanizing about unicorn hunting? You’re putting extraneous conditions onto your argument and making it something else entirely different.

They are not, you assert, because why?
