Don't even try and equate this to not being stingy. What it comes down to is swingers are incapable, incapable of being with just one person. They would like others to believe that people in general can't be faithful to one person but the fact is there are many people who can be.

Swingers aren't enlightened on human nature as they try to say, they just want to believe they are instead of face up to the facts that they can't be faithful to one person.

You've posited a bunch of stark generalizations which I can't support. Swinging isn't for me and isn't for everyone and obviously is not for you. However, what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own homes and which activities harm no others should surely not promote such moral outrage as you've expressed.

I questioned the OP's assumption that anyone has a "turning point" where swinging is concerned. Save the moral outrage, lionking, for another forum and another time.

The only way I could be tempted would be through my SO, and even then, I'd argue pretty fiercely.

Not only that anyone can be tempted into the lifestyle, but the possibility of anyone by the OP and maybe her partner. That's the first flaw in the question.

I'm attracted to women based on what comes out of their mouths, not what goes in.

There would be no possibility whatsoever.

Well, for starters, there is no way in HELL my husband would ever be willing to share me with anyone else. No way in hell. I would not even bring this up to him.
For myself, I have had those type of fantasies on numerous occassions, however, when I would REALLY put some thought into it and see what it would do to my relationship with my husband, I was getting instantly turned off from the whole idea. It's just not worth it!

Good for him. The marriage bed has been too easily disrespected, pillaged, and soiled in modern times. Let husbands prize their wives and wives prize their husbands.

Who says I want to interfere with what people do in their private lives? You'll never see me supporting banning swinging.

However she came across as "I share my ice cream" or whatever which implies she is more giving and less greedy or less controling than someone who doesn't give their wife or husband to others.

I don't care for swinging when people have exchanged vows, I am expressing my opinion. Those that don't agree with can well...just not agree with me.

I think that's why they have those swingers clubs. Those who are into the idea can meet with others who also obviously are.
