Why can unicorn hunting be dangerous?
Being used as a fantasy slave
The Unicorn hunters eye unicorns as fantasy slave and objectifies them or any target they choose to hunt to fulfill their fetish, secret desires which is itself derogatory to any person. The unicorn doesn’t enjoy the same privilege as the primary partner and is looked upon as a secondary. The only tag attached to the unicorn is that they are acquired as a slave to satisfy their unusual needs or selfish urges.
Male-triggered initiative
Unicorn hunting is most of the time seen as a male-triggered initiative and too many are eyed as a tactic applied by men to sleep with other women without having to share their women with other men. It screams dishonesty and infidelity in a relationship and the relationship becomes vulnerable to a probable relationship breakup.
Breaking forbidden social barriers
In our conventional society everyone desires and aspires to a strong relationship with their partner, Many can’t even imagine a third or another someone in the life of their partner, but many are of the view that being a unicorn hunter breaks all social values and insults the traditions in the name of freedom, trying new things and all nonsense excuses to being in a unicorn relationship.
Supports misogyny and sexism
Though exciting or adventurous unicorn hunting sounds at some point in time it supports misogyny and sexism which is an unfair treatment and bad practice to follow. Loyalty and exclusivity can never be replaced in true love and relationship with unicorn hunting.
Hypersexuality fanatism
The urge to involve a third partner in a relationship indicates either any one or both partners are not happy with each other intimacy or one of them is hyper-sexually active which drives the couple to fulfill it by unicorn hunting, Hyper sexuality is just an excuse used by some to hide their weakness and urges to infidelity.
Non-emotional agreement
Unicorns have no emotional connection with the unicorn hunting couple, they are refused equal rights and seen only as an agreement with rules they should follow, they are barred from having any romantic, sexual, or emotional connection outside the unicorn relationship and don’t even validate or accept the unicorns emotional presence in their relationship.
Threatens current relationship
A Throuple relationship or unicorn hunting may sound exciting and exotic but dangerous to follow it puts the current relationship into jeopardy as one of the partners starts doubting their compatibility and chemistry with their partner and insecurities sink in and as one partner may be giving more importance to the unicorn and ignoring your efforts. Unhealthy power dynamics can ruin relationships.
The bottom line
Having a unicorn relationship can be a great experience for some but being in a unicorn relationship or unicorn hunting itself is a sign of turbulence in a relationship which is hidden by the idea of spicing up the relationship. It’s like agreeing honestly on dishonesty. In today’s, world traditional societies and even modern societies don’t approve of such unicorn hunting as it points towards unfair social practices. Many see it as a last effort to save relationships but Unicorn hunting is a dangerous expedition in which sometimes the hunter becomes the hunted.
