Swing FAQ's
What sort of people are Swingers?
Swingers are interested in sexual adventure. Since the desire for sexual
gratification is inherent to the human race, Swingers come from all walks of
life, in all shapes, sizes and ages. She may be that attractive blond on the
beach, or he may be your doctor, or they may be the couple next door.
How do I approach my partner about Swinging?
There are two ways to go. The first is frank discussion - if your partner is
able to verbalize his or her sexual desires, then talking and finding out the
facts together may lead you to the decision that is best for your overall
happiness. If it is difficult to find out exactly what your partner thinks, a
less subtle approach may be better. Try exposing your partner to the idea of
Swinging through verbal fantasizing during lovemaking, viewing pornographic
movies and magazines that portray multiples, becoming platonic friends with
Swingers, etc. By contacting local Swingers Clubs, you will be able to find out
about discos and hotel lounges that are meeting places for couples interested in
Swinging. A visit for dinner and drinks may lead to contacts and discussions
that may spark your partner's interest in a new form of sexual adventure!
I think I am interested in a Swinging experience, but am not 100% sure.
This makes me a little uncomfortable, what should I do?
Research the topic more in depth. Once all the facts are in front of you, the
decision will be a little easier. Like anything else in life, the first time may
be a little uncomfortable because you have not participated in the activity
before and do not know what to do. This is perfectly normal. Contact a local
Swingers Club and explain your interests. You will more than likely be speaking
with someone who knows exactly where you are coming from because he (she) was in
your position at one time. They should be able to offer advice, contacts to
speak with or meet, and places where you can go to socialize with Swingers on a
platonic basis. This should give you exposure to the Swing Scene without any
sexual involvement on your part.
I want to be very discreet in my activities. What are the different ways
to make contacts with other individuals / couples interested in Swinging?
Established Swingers Clubs are very professional and
discreet in their conduct. Otherwise, they would not exist for more than a week.
Other alternatives are Swinger publications and contact magazines / newsletters,
internet newsgroups, websites such as this one, introduction services,
conventions and special events, travel agencies and resorts that cater to the
sexually adventurous, and telephone contact organizations that offer voice mail
advertisement and responses as well as chat lines.
How can I maintain my privacy while corresponding with other Swingers?
You should be able to maintain a P.O. Box at a local post office for a nominal
fee. Email is growing in popularity these days as well as websites, like this
one, who's personal ads will act as an intermediary until you decide
to give out your email address. In this way, you can remain anonymous at your
leisure. Swinging activities can take place at third party locations: Swingers
Clubs, hotels, resorts, private homes, etc.
