Nope I'm a man not interested and I wouldn't do it.

I had a girlfriend who refused to tell me that she had a swinger past with her ex bf, I was really hurt when I found out, because she wanted to drag our relationship into that lifestyle, but wasn't honest enough to openly accept it, I guess she knew that when I discovered everything would be finished.

Not for me. One of my close friends is a swinger, though, and she loves it. The swinger community apparently is still thriving.

You did it- this should get good.

I admit, I have been to 3 of these clubs (actually 2 of them were clubs, the other was a private party at a mansion in a posh suburb. If only those neighbors knew what was going on LOL!).
I only watched and did not participate. I was nervous- I got so scared when I learned they served no liquor! Of course now I understand why after I thought about it.

It wasn't bad, I think at least all couples should try it once!

Or even for a fun 'girls night out'. A friend and I went to one in Atlanta. It was like a nightclub with naked people! A great way to boost self esteem- men and women chasing after you. Especially if you are only in decent shape you are way ahead of most of the patrons I might add.

Not interested. Doubt that I'll ever be.

Do you do it? You must be interested/curious about it to start a thread on it.

People are so indoctrinated by the church and its effect on society - they don't realize that jealousy is NOT love -its insecurity.

Most marriages don't work and many who stay married cheat, abuse or have little intimate contact with their spouse.

There are all sorts of swingers and one shouldn't stereotype them as a group but small minds do stereotype.

I was on Craiglist for real estate and my kids and I were looking for a rabbit but curiousity led me to casual encounters and geee there is all sorts of stuff going on. More power to them - we have all sorts of criminals and people who preech and hurt others- let them have fun - who are we to judge?

Those who feel that their spouse is a piece of chattel might not like to see their other half with anyone. Jealousy is a disease. A disease so many people are inflicted with. Why are people so jealous of eachother?

There is nothing wrong with multiple partners. Why is it so bad? This jealous thing starts early in life with envy, especially among women the worlds most jealous creatures. Normal men never look at another man. Women look at other women with envy. So and so has bigger boobs or a rounder azz then me...things like that. Later in life this envy turns to jealousy when they tie the knott. When these types of people see their chattle....oops I mean spouse looking at the opposite sex they go nuts with jealousy. Why? Are you that insecure? If the mere sight of your spouse watching another persons caboose jiggle makes you jealous then who has the problem?

Im not saying swinging is for everyone. But dont knock it until you try it.

If you want to play the religous hokus pokus crap game then blame your God. It would be he that screwed up when he made man and woman so uncompatable. No you say? Why does puberty come at different times between men and woman? Why is the female body so valuble while a mans body is virtualy worthless in the sex market as well as the dating market?

Sorry but men desire varity and women do not. Dont blame us. Maybe your God screwed up when he made us? Many swingers have some of the strongest bond relationships because of trust. I can promise you that.
