    Just wondering, This made it to court,, but there must be other unreported robberies. Can you imagine a married man who fell for this.. Do you think he would go to the Guards?

    He deserves to be robbed if he is such a gobshyte. Is there not already a thread on this in AH?

    Wasn't there something like this in Oblivion?:D

    Maybe it's some new fetish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    It's a pretty ingenious scheme in a way. The embarrassing nature of the circumstances might cause men to be reluctant to report the crime. That said, bringing them back to your house isn't too smart for when one does go to the cops.

    This is my biggest fear.

    In a way, it's brilliant. Most men aren't going to come forward and say that they've been conned and they'll just let it slide.

    But, really, what the hell were the men thinking (particularly the 55-year old)? The younger man maybe just thought he was going back to someone's house for a bit of fun, but did the elder man seriously think that he was (1) genuinely going to get a threesome, and (2) with two women half his age?! That stinks, and he should have known better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,041 ✭✭✭who the fug


    Was the 55 year old local ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 494 ✭✭eco2live


    He was robbed twice. The money and the experience. Don't know what is worse. If they had robbed him the next morning then he probably would have been happy enough and not reported it. :)

    Huh? I don't see anything that makes either of these guys a gobshite.

    Surely a 55-year-okd man believing 2 young girls would just randomly offer him a threesome is a sign of a gobshíte?

    Naive maybe, but not necessarily a gobshite. Don't forget there are 2 victims, the other being 22 also.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,770 ✭✭✭Bottle_of_Smoke


    Given this was armed robbery, they should expect a sentence of around 5-7years.

    Would bet any money they get suspended sentences

    That's like saying a guy who gets raped deserves it if he was drunk.

    Has the threesome even reached Ireland yet?

    That would have been my first sign of alarm!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    why did he have €920 on him?

    Seriously though, what kind of an absolute and utter fúckwit falls for something like this?!?!?

    Two young wans hardly out of school, asking an auld boy in his mid 50's for a threesome, ffs, where does he think he is, Thailand or somewhere?!?

    And the other guy, that was 22?

    I really don't get why you are choosing to attack 1 of the victims.

    Because it's easier. It's easy to say a 50 year old had no right to think two young women would want his sex at the same time and therefore he must be stupid/deluded. Not so much so for a (possibly?) handsome and athletic looking twentysomething.

    I think if you fall for this kind of thing then you deserve to be robbed! I never heard of two girls even approaching a handsome and athletic twentysomething year old guy and suggesting a threesome, yet alone a 55 year old fart!

    Well, as I said earlier that would make him naive, more so than a gobshite.

    Well then clearly you are not a handsome and athletic twentysomething year old guy. Although I recon a reference to that demographic is irrelevant as I don't recall the article linked in the OP showing any pictures of either of the 2 reported victims.

    I don't find the method for reeling in the victims odd. Many men and women are regularly engaged in casual sex and an age difference doesn't nessecarily have to come into account. I wouldn't consider it normal, but I wouldn't think it is too far fetched either. Other then the pretence of a threesome, nothing further was disclosed about how these crimes were set up or the build up of attackers propositioning the victims, let alone picking them out. There would have been a lot more to it than just going up to some bloke and saying "Fancy a threesome with my slutty girlfriend at my place?"

    No, I'm handsome and athletic 30 something year old, maybe the girls of my age are a bit more reserved, but I've never heard of guys in their 20's or their 30's being offered threesomes, regardless of their condition!

    I can't say I know that many lads in their early 20's, but from what I hear, it's common for girls leaving school these days to be with girls as much as guys, and this defo wasn't the case when I was leaving school and on into my 20's, so maybe girls in their 20's now are a different type of chracter altogether than the girls I know who are my own age...

    Either way though, say I was offered threesome by two girls in their twenties, I reckon I'd be mature enough to laugh at them and send them on their way! Jesus how rediculous can people be??? Seriously, would guys on here actually take up such an offer, as in sex with two total strangers, they could be junkies or cokeheads, (or just plain thieves as is the case here!)???

    Maybe I'm just risk averse, actually I know that I am, a lot moreso than most lads, but only down to experience (and sometimes that can be the experience/hassle/shyte that others that I observe around me get into, and not my own experience per sé), but I wouldn't dream of running with something like this if it was put to me, I wouldn't give a fiddlers how good looking they were or whatever...

    And yes, I'm 200% straight...

    I don't know about the handsome part, but a threesome was offered to me when I was about 20 (over a dozen years ago). The women were about the same age. It was back when Peigs was open on Kildare street. I was too gobsmacked at the time to consider it, coupled with the thought that they were taking the p***. Maybe that was a good thing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,555 ✭✭✭Kinski


    Maybe the 55 year old guy thought "There is a 99% probability that I am being set up and will be beaten and robbed, but there is a 1% chance that if I say no I will have passed up my last ever opportunity to have sex with two young women at the same time." Maybe that 1% doubt would have niggled at him to the grave, and he thought it was worth getting robbed to avoid it.

    They were most probably trying to take the píss out of you, hoping you'd fall for it! If these kind of events happen, (and I accept that they do!), I imagine it happens at the very edge of a circle of friends or something, where it happens at or after a party or some such event and then there's a big effort to hush it up and then someone starts bragging about it down the pub with drink some night and the rumours start...

    I don't accept for a second that a guy thinks he is going to end up in a threesome on the basis of two completely random strangers coming up to him and asking for it, where this happens, it's very obviously someone who is highly immature trying to take the absolute píss out of you, or else there is some other angle to it, like a pair of girls who are using you to pay for the taxi home or like someone trying to rob you!!!

    I've seen a similar type of situation happening recently in a nightclub, two girls start going off with each other, next thing everyone is looking at them, then they have a gang of guys around them buying them drinks all night, some guys just can't see the wood from the trees I think!

    Seriously, any guy who falls for this is watching waaaaaay too much porn!

    I was asked for a 3some before when I was working on doors by two women in their late 20's. It does happen. Didn't take them up on their offer cos I had a girl in bed waiting for me. Gutted I was.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,219 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Yeah I was robbed by them on Tuesday, and the Saturday before that, and the Thursday before that.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,912 ✭✭✭HellFireClub


    Another thing that I would say is a factor in all of these so called offers is girls full of coke and coming out with any auld shyte when they are coked off their faces.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,289 ✭✭✭parker kent


    Naive maybe, but not necessarily a gobshite. Don't forget there are 2 victims, the other being 22 also.

    You say toma-to, I say tomat-o. You say naive, I say gobshíte. The gobshíte debate is just semantics. I think everybody can agree he was foolish/silly/naive/insert term here.

    Same logic applies to most men in that specific situation. Threesomes don't just happen that way and especially if you are a 55-year-old man being propositioned by young girls. Unless I'm mistaken and it is actually common for young girls to offer threesomes to 55-year-old men.

    I had a couple of threesomes this way, you end up with a lass in a nightclub, then you meet her mate...turns out it's the kind of thing they like to do and off ya go.

    Great fun.

    Whatever floats your boat, but definitely wouldn't be my gig! My mates don't get this at all, saying I'm mad. I just go for a certain type of girl in terms of attitude and class, and the kind of girl who would be up for a threesome just wouldn't interest me in the slightest.

    While I would not be up for a threesome myself it is for entirely different reasons as I do not think threesomes has anything to do with "class" at all and would never judge someone negatively for it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,425 ✭✭✭gargleblaster


    It could come about in any number of ways, but in the vast majority of these situations the man propositioned is either going to be very good looking or very wealthy (as money vastly improves men's looks of course ;)). So if the man in question is an average looking 55-year-old, then yeah, I'd think he might have been more skeptical.

    I wouldn't say that I do either. Just not for me though, there's loads of lads out there who would appreciate that, I'm just not one of them. What I look for in a girl is depth of character, a strong sense of self and a degree of class. A girl who doesn't know if she is into her own gender or the opposite, or who is up for whatever you are having yourself, just wouldn't tick the boxes that I need to be ticked for compatibility, but I fully accept could make some other lad (or girl) very happy....

    you do realise that bisexual is real and people can be into both right?

    To be honest, i would take from the fact that you keep making mention of "class" that you are making some kind of judgement.

    I am unsure how someones sexual orientation has anything to do with "class".
