It’s okay when it's in a three-way —(3-Way) The Lonely Island

 |
Plaid shirt and muscle levels maxed out...
Threesomes with two girls are hot. Threesomes with two guys are manly. Note this is not gay, and no heterosexual male will see it as such even if a guy penetrates another guy. If the two guys are related, it's also not incestuous.
If there are more than two guys, the threesome becomes especially manly. Both double penetration and the lucky Perre position take this trope Up to Eleven.
Examples of A Threesome Is Manly include:
