What constitutes a gangbang?

Petra confused here. I never read threads on gangbangs, I sort of just go "ehew," not my thing. I always think of fat, smelly strangers showing up in a seedy hotel room to have their way with me for endless hours. But Clair pointed out that when our poly foursome has gotten together with our swing couple, both Lora (f of the other couple) and I have made a point of it a couple of times to have all three guys (Clair and Red don't have sex, so Clair gets two guys at most) simultaneously attend to only one of us for at least a couple of hours, and cum inside. Is that a gangbang? Or does it need to involve strangers? Or need to go on for endless hours (how endless?) with many (how many?) guys and just one woman? Does having the presence of any more than one woman destroy the concept of a gangbang?

In my mind the closest thing to a real gangbang for us was when Lora and Walter visited near the end of Clair's and my pregnancies. Lora absorbed, and enjoyed, a lot of sex from three guys over a period of days because Clair and I had limited participation with none of it between our legs.

I appreciate your thoughts.

What I have seen is the girl takes on all cummers, pardon the pun, not necessarily guys known to her. In the world outside of swinging this can start relatively consensual and move off into something more like gang rape.

I don't think gangbangs inherently mean strangers. I think gangbangs could involve strangers but they could also involve men that the woman/couple already knows and trust. As for a time limit, it just depends on the woman. If she wants it to go for 12 hours, she can plan it that way with breaks here and there for food, rest, and bathroom. If she wants it for only 2 hours, then that could also be a gangbang. As for the number of men, I think it's probably a gangbang once there's more than 2 men (because 2 men and 1 woman is a threesome MFM). Obviously, there can be more than that in a gangbang. As for the number of women at a gangbang, this part I can't say for certain. I know that at some gangbangs, there is only one woman but at others, there can be "fluffers" (other women) who help to keep those men aroused who are on the sidelines waiting to partake in the woman who is the star of the show.

According to Webster (true story ) "gang bang" [noun] copulation by several persons in succession with the same passive partner.

And "several" is [adj] more than two but not very many.

Who knew Webster could be kinky

Now see, 2leos did the right thing in the answer. Definition! So, define 'gang'? Now I would think that two men would be a couple of men and three men would be a few. So, in my mind a gang would be four or more. And a 'bang', in this reference, is having intercourse with. So, my definition would be a lady allowing, and emphasis on 'allowing', four or more men to take turns having intercourse with her during the same session. I really doesn't matter if she knows them or not but I'd think it much safer if she did.

I don't think the presence of multiple women alters the criteria. If there are 4 guys and 4 women, and each guy has sex with each women, then the reality for the women is the same as if each had been the only woman and had 4 guys.

Now, in some cases the woman may WANT to be the sole woman so that she can receive each man's orgasm. I have heard more than one woman describe the idea (I don't know any that have done it) of screwing several guys to completion in succession is a big ego boost. This might be where a gangbang is planned in advance, with multiple guys knowing they are there for one woman ahead of time.

On the other hand, at a house party or club, a gangbang might happen just by chance, with a (or more than one) woman having several partners in succession.

"In succession" doesn't do it for me. My preference for a gangbang is multiple men pleasing me and being pleased all at once...not that many men in succession isn't a gangbang, just that my ideal situation is too. After all, I have two hands and a mouth and quite enjoy multitasking and the challenge of multiple men. In my limited experience, four men was a gangbang...but I think three men and one woman would qualify I have also enjoyed three men and two women with me as the sole focus. LUCKY ME!!

I think this is just one of those things that is up to each individual's interpretation. IOW, if you think it was a gangbang, it was a gangbang.

The only concept I have of "gang bang" is the episode of the serialized drama, I Claudius, on the Public Broadcasting Service when the Roman emperor's wife and a Sicilian prostitute declare a contest for the greatest number of men who can be "serviced" in one evening of debauchery. The men were lined up at the door. But then again, PBS drama cannot be confused with "real world".

In my head, the "bang" portion assumes a penetrative sex act and I had honestly not thought abut women DOING the banging... But then again, aftermarket accessories make all sorts of things possible. ;-)

In Eurpoe a Gangbang is more than 4 partners of the opposite sex. With a woman it's 5 or more men. A reverse Gangbang is the opposite, 5 or more women to a man.

Interesting. Do you have a citation for this number?

I tend to think anything more than a threesome, especially with the balance of numbers favoring one sex (usually male) is a gangbang.

It's just a conventional number. As others have said, it's a matter for conjecture. That is how they are seen in Europe.

Three of anything is a collection (so if you have three of anything, you are now a collector of that). The same can be said (IOHO) here: three or more men (or women) constitute a 'gang'. If there are three women and three men and all of the men have sex with all of the women, then all three women had a gangbang (and all of the men had Viagra or qualify as 'super' men).

What we think is a better question is how did Couplers get in this situation and how can we do the same?

Hey, we looked it up and while not all definitions actually give a number (they merely say 'a group'), the National Institute of Justice defines a 'gang' as:

Federal definition. The federal definition of gang as used by the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), is:

An association of three or more individuals

State definition. A number of states use the following definition of gang, often with minor modifications (this definition was originally devised by the California legislature):

'criminal street gang' means any ongoing organization, association or group of three or more persons

If it's good enough for the DOJ and Homeland Security, it works for us (at least).

Actually, that's a true story about Messalina.

Yea, that's the woman. That is the story, in any case, as it was told by Tacitus. He was 100 years younger than Messalina so I doubt he was there with "the gang".

In Eurpoe a Gangbang is more than 4 partners of the opposite sex.

OK, so now I got it. Even though we were fucked by the same three guys in both places, Lora and I have been gangbanged in the US, but not in Europe.

It reminds me of the question in 10 Things I hate About You.

"Chastity: I know you can be overwhelmed, and you can be underwhelmed, but can you ever just be whelmed?

Bianca: I think you can in Europe."

It's all arbitrary of course. Generally less than five is just called 3some, 4some etc.

Most European clubs have a gangbang night usually monthly or every 6 weeks or so. They can be a lot of fun! I have attended a few and they can be up to 10 women and up to 70 men (a ratio of 7 to 1). Not all men participate in the general sense, some are just willy-whackers.

It's curious how so many English lifestyle words have become mainstream in the other languages. Mention the word 'Swing' and the people know that you are not talking of a children's playground!

I've always thought that anything less than three guys working on one girl is not a gangbang. Also, one at a time is a train, not a gangbang.

I would say, that the male participants do not have to be "strangers", matter of fact, if you know them, there is at least a level of trust and familiarity.

I would say more than five people since fivesomes isn't in the dictionary yet lol

In summary; a Gangbang means whatever you want it to mean.

It's interesting in Europe too, each country has a different definition of "Gangbang". In France it's any banging where there are multiple partners, in Germany it only applies to 5 or more people of the opposite sex. The same throughout Central Europe. In Russia it means whatever you want. Spain and Italy have different definitions again. Confusing!

Hey kellimc, not sure if your still online since we can not send a private message to you. I was curious from a old topic which is close now. You said in your first gangbang that it was with 12 guys and it was with another girl in it.

If it ok to ask, did you know the another women and how old were you at the time. Either way it would be nice to hear from you again in the site.

I would say a gangbang is anything more than 4 guys and a women.

By the way my wife loves gangbangs.

In my opinion a gangbang is when more than two men focus on one woman. Two men is more of an intimate encounter like your husband and another guy. Three or more men is more of a kinky sexual experience for the married (or unmarried) couple but I think it is still focused on a group of men on one woman.

A related question, are guys who participate in gangbangs actually swingers, part of the lifestyle?

I have always defined a gang bang as three dicks or more.  Two dicks is a threesome so since it already has a name I do not include it.  I have participated in a couple but it is also not my thing.  I like a connection, I don't care for being treated like a hole.  Ewww.

I have always considered more than 4 a gangbang especially when we are lined up & waiting for a pop.  But I wouldn’t consider a woman having 4 or more men at a party a gang bang if it was spread out over the playtime. 
 

I sure like sliding into a woman after she has taken 3-4 men’s loads, after too many loads a guy can’t feel her pussy gripping.
