Mojo has lost her mojo. I don’t know where it went but just like Austin Powers’, it has gone and is sorely missed. Perhaps it’s gone because my last Freshers' fortnight is over. I can hardly use my debut line “Debauched? But I’m a fresher!” for much longer and second year (presumably) will involve a lot more work and a lot less play. Add to that the alcohol ban on the rowing and rugby teams, and you see why my love life is taking a beating.

I always say the best way to remedy not getting enough sex is to get too much. I’d never experienced a threesome and now seemed like the perfect opportunity. I found a girlfriend with similar frustrations and together we went out to find the best lover we could get.

I had initially hoped that the Lancastrian teams would be ideal candidates. Surely they would jump at the chance to get with two Yorker girls. However, their bleached hair reminded me of a bunch of Smurfs, and their losing streak at Roses proved to my friend and I that York sportsmen are undoubtedly superior.

Having the alcohol ban in place actually proved to be a saving grace. We found a sober rugby player to do the job, which he did, performing much better in his conscious state. I’d always been sceptical about the logistics of a threesome; sharing isn’t exactly my forte. Turns out my preconceptions were entirely unfounded.

Rather than fighting between ourselves over the guy, he found himself bidding for our attention as things between the two of us heated up. I was kissing a girl (and I liked it) whilst being pleasured by a boy. Jealous anyone?

Naughty descriptions aside, a threesome is such a liberating experience. It certainly made that rugby guy think twice about his personal sex appeal, while I could allow myself to experiment with a girl without questioning my sexuality.

There is certainly a right and a wrong way to handle threesomes. Websites warn of how easy it is to revert to a twosome which unsurprisingly would make the third lover a real third wheel. Also, if word gets out about the perpetrators, there is still a huge taboo and a whole pile of judgement associated with such behaviour.

I am pretty sure that most of you reading this haven’t experienced a threesome, either out of fear or because no opportunity has presented itself. Hopefully this article will spread awareness on the delights of having two simultaneous lovers.

And if it is lack of opportunity, let me know. Perhaps the mojo can help you restore your mojo too.

"I am pretty sure that most of you reading this haven’t experienced a threesome, either out of fear or because no opportunity has presented itself"

I haven't experienced a threesome because I don't want to. The opportunity presented itself and I passed it by. Because, you know, sex is better than "find some rugby player and sleep with him and in five years I'll be so insecure about myself that I have to have lots of plastic surgery to try and stay young and end up prostituting myself just to get that affection that I have always craved but have never found despite the number of men that I have slept with and for some reason I could never cope with having one person for a long period of time and kept sabotaging relationships because of my own mental instabilities that had been brought on by an unloving childhood and large quantities of anonymous sex at university."

Not all will suffer from it but a ridiculously high number of people who act like Mademoiselle will end up in that situation and will regret it. And there's a solid reason that isn't just about morality; and I hope you take my advice and stop slutting yourself out to everyone.

Most of these articles are utter bollocks anyway. The Rugby lads pass girls about between them so if this one girl has slept with so many she would be well known to all of campus by now!

Is this an attempt to sexually liberate the female? A stab at feminism? Also - why is your tone consistently presumptuous or arrogant or sometimes even both? "I'm pretty sure that most of you reading this haven't experienced a threesome." Right. Well now you've liberated me from my cave of inexperience and rot - I'll induldge in some frivolity.
