Does anyone have any experience with this group? What kinds of events are held? Is there a privacy contract?

Had to google this one...never heard of the group.......

The Bon Vivant Social Club of Tampa was created 1) To create real-life social gatherings for people of alternative lifestyles to socialize in a judgment-free group; 2) to maintain a safe and comfortable space online for communication; and 3) to support the local alt communities and to give something back.

You'll find people from all walks of life here - polyamory, non-monogamy, foreign ex-pats, naturist, child-free, BDSM, hedonist, GLBT, swingers, trans, CD - and we all have one thing in common: we all live some form of "alternative lifestyle" and have often had to measure carefully what we say and do when socializing amongst the general populace.

Our events run the spectrum from mild (wine tasting, movie nights) to wild (nudist resorts, fetish clubs) and everything in-between (holiday dinners, live theatre, and educational seminars.) The key difference is the very accepting and positive attitude of our members, and knowing that you can speak freely of your chosen lifestyle without fear of being judged. ***We are a social group, NOT a dating nor "play" group.*** All are welcome; all that's required is a positive, tolerant, and respectful attitude towards all.

If you want to meet real people who have a lust for life, open minds, quick wits, and active social lives, this is the group for you! Let's make some great friendships where we don't have to measure our words for fear of shocking anyone, drinking is not verboten, and if you want to bring your girlfriend and your boyfriend to events with you, you can!

Thanks BucFan, got that from the Meetup site also. Without actually joining as a member and having my pic out there, I was wondering if anyone had any first-hand experience? As a member of other Meetup groups, I seem to be meeting quite a few people in the area who are members of this group also and they seem to be rather hushed about it. Don't want to judge, just curious about this "secret society". Also curious why "foreign ex-pats and child-free" would be included in this group - LOL - doesn't seem to fit?! If I'm crossing a line someone please tell me!
