BBC triad interview: "As genuine and as significant as a couple relationship"

Yesterday BBC Radio 5 hosted a 3-hour #sextakeover "focussed on sexual behaviour, relationships and attitudes in the UK." The show is not available outside the UK as far as I can tell, but BBC News put up this nice, 3-minute video with the show's poly interviewees:



It came with this text:

Meet the 'throuple': A three-way relationship

..."As soon as you say a three-way relationship, people automatically think this must be about sex. When in reality this is something like as genuine and as significant as a couple relationship," said Cathy.

"The third person is the mediator. So they can see it from an outside perspective of whatever that situation," added Nicole.

They talk openly about how they became a throuple, parenting Thomas and Cathy's son, and their sleeping arrangements.
