It seems (to me, at least) that anyone who asks about same-sex topics, threesomes (MMF or MFF), etc. are typically greeted with condemnations and cat-calls from the answers peanut gallery.
If the activity in question doesn't affect them, why the need to strike out at those who engage in them?

Too many people these days are quick to criticize what they don't understand or don't believe in. Our society seems to be accepting of this now and I find that to be a shame. I try to accept people for who they are. If we are different, this is a good thing!
I may learn something from you as you may from me. If you do something that I don't do, I won't judge you. I hope that people won't judge me for things I do that they may not. I make it a point to not listen to what others may say about me in a negative way.
Especially on forums such as this.
Good question!

Because so many like to impose their own version of morality on others. By doing so it gives them a feeling of superiority. They feel better about themselves by putting others down, or artificially elevating themselves above others.
Instead of just saying "It's not right for me", they say "what you do is wrong!" This makes them feel morally superior and thus better about themselves. It really is neurotic insecurity. Nothing less.
Those that are secure in themselves don't have to do so. They are not threatened by what others do that does not concern them. They are not threatened by those that are different then them, or live differently then them.
Those that aren't secure in themselves use this as a crutch to appease their insecurities. Because they will only be comfortable when everyone lives and thinks exactly same way they do.

Psychology. If someone views something that another person does as something they would not like to do, they condemn/judge/look down on them. By doing this, they can excuse some of their own behaviors and characteristics.
Example: "I may be a bad person for doing ____, but at least I am not a ____."

I know, huh! It's like I have no business in answering Mathematics questions because I have absolutely now interest in it whatsoever!

Most of the people I see posting those questions are straight couples trying to use this like it was a 1970's swingers bar...it isn't.

they're just pathetic bigots. and passing judgment on others makes their miserable lives feel somehow superior. if they can find fault with someone else, it makes their sinful behavior seem less sinful, perhaps (sorry, just makes you a bigger sinner!)

If you are straight you don`t have to worry about being judged because it is normal.

Because they're frightened little boys and girls, most with faith-based agendas, who cannot accept either reality or equality.

Simply because people tend to fear those that are different from themselves.
