With a few minor exceptions, all the people we've met have been respectful, friendly, and not pushy. I've seen less drama, jealousy, and cheating with the people in this group than from "vanilla" friends.
Well said. I know somebody brought up the experience of how a woman ran off with another persons husband, but, that happens all the time in the no swinger life!!!!

Did you know that they also remove the rocks from the yard when their partner/s show up at the house?

Hence the origin of the phrase "getting your rocks off".

From the people I know, It appears the divorce rate for people in most Alternative Lifestyles seems to be much lower then non-Lifestyle couples.

Great Post Phil, I've always wondered where that term originated. I thought it had something to do with Prison chain gangs working at the quarry.

Recently was at a gathering in my smalltown and someone brought up the fact that our town is known for having a large swingers group!!! Who knew!!!!

Then I remembered hanging out a neighborhood couple when the conversation took a weird turn as far as topic-wise. The woman began talking about hanging at bars amd friends having breast implants and how these women were coming on to her husband, who at that point, had a more that creepy smile on his face....suddenly, they both were staring at us kinda odd like so we fumbled a reason to head home.....

Later, hubbie and I agreed it was leading somewhere that was more than a little interesting.....

Hey, to each his own....I'm just a status quo kinda girl Got a new hobby, tho, i'm going to be on the outlook for white rocks in front yards...LOL

When I was 10 years old I told my teacher that my Uncle traded wives. The teacher looked at me funny because as a kid I thought that was normal. What happened was, a group of their friends got together, put their keys in a cup and then drew them out. Whomever keys you got, you went home with. The interesting part was, after a few years, everyone within the group got married and remarried within the group. In my Uncle's case, a guy named Richard, he was wed to Carol. Carola and Richard got divorced, as did Dot and Skip. Carol married skip, and Dot Married Richard...a literal wife swap!!

Myself, some friends asked me to join in their 3some. Her fantasy was to be having sex with her husband as I hid in the closet. Then I would come out and pork her in the bum while she rode her hubby. Interesting fantasy, and my wife at the time said I could do it, but I ultimately opted out as the whole idea was to surprise her husband. Having a friend suddenly come out of the closet and pork your wife might incite some people to do great bodily harm to the one stepping out of the closet. Oh and they were both BBP's...big beautiful people at 400 pounds. Anyway I opted out.

This is an urban legend, and not true. Since this rumor became well-known, however, a very few swingers (and non-swingers, too!) did put big white rocks in their yard just for fun.

In swinger couples, how could "cheating" really matter? Having sex behind the spouses back with someone else but forgetting to tell them? Since swingers want and accept cheating, it's not cheating.

I would imagine there's no jealousy, not much passion between spouses that enjoy watching them go off with others while they go off with others. To swingers having some other guy doing his wife is a turn on, not something that provokes jealousy.
