二股

ふたまた [futamata] – Literally: “Double groin“. If you knew the parts of the word, you might be able to guess that it means “having relations with more than one lover.” Typically one of the relationships is illicit.

By extension, this word can also be used to describe someone who tries to satisfy two opposing sides of an issue.
