Unicorn Hunter
A Unicorn Hunter is an established couple looking for a bisexual woman for a sexual relationship.
The Unicorn is the bisexual woman who is interested in engaging with this dynamic, because they are rare and highly sought after. Unicorns can also be men and can be named a different magical creature like a Dragon.
Unicorn hunting can be done ethically, but there are many pitfalls to the approach. and are frequently tied to unicorn hunting.
Unethical unicorn hunting looks like:
- A couple treating themselves as a single unit. "You only have sex with both of us"
- The unicorn is an addition to the existing relationship and can be cut out at any moment
- The unicorn has no say in the overall relationship or has less power than the established couple
Ethical unicorn hunting looks like:
- The unicorn is fully aware of the agreements, rules, and boundaries of the established couple
- The unicorn chooses who to engage with on their own terms. "I choose to have a threesome with both of you" or "Today I'd rather play with Gemma alone"
- The unicorn is welcomed into conversations about the relationship and has an equal voice in the dynamic
Unicorn Hunters is usually a pejorative label and is widely disapproved in polyamorous and queer communities.
Ethical unicorn hunters might be better served to search for partners separately and allow triads to form organically if there is a fit.
