Sorry, Chicup, I've gotta chime in on this too. Just exactly how MUCH research exists on this topic? Not much, I'd warrant. I also struggle with your use of non-quantifiable terms like "rarely", "long term", "just isn't", and "unusual".

You know, of course, that our triad/blended family is well into it's 4th year. We're doing pretty good, I'd say. I wouldn't say we're all that "unusual" either, but then, that's a YMMV thing. Certainly we don't present "weird", but who knows what freaky things are under the surface?

Oh, and for the record, my guys are decidedly NOT bisexual! (They would want to make sure I emphasize that!)
