Who Swings?

Swinging couples come in all shapes and sizes, personalities and preferences. To define the average swinger would grossly underestimate the dynamic personalities in the lifestyle.

However, swingers do have one thing, if not many, in common, They are all open minded!

Swingers can be professionals, doctors, politicians, firemen, chefs, sales managers, truck drivers, waitresses, day care workers, policemen or women, teachers, nurses, house wives or husbands. As more people access the Internet, exploration into this somewhat underground lifestyle has exploded. Many curious couples are seeking information and a safe way to get started.

Swingers are not weird or immoral. They are curious, open-minded, friendly people. The couples in the lifestyle are generally good at socialising and enjoy meeting people. While there are those couples that prefer to get down to business quickly, that is the exception. Most couples are normal, loving and caring people looking to share friendship and sexual experiences with others. By no means are swingers sexual deviants. When people don't understanding what the lifestyle is all about, they misconstrued what couples do in the lifestyle.

Simply put, the lifestyle is about sharing with your partner sexual exploration and friendship.
If you can relate to the days when you were single and shared your experiences with a buddy or close friend, you can relate to the communication experienced while swinging. Except that buddy is now your partner or spouse. How special it is to share it with someone you love. It is not uncommon for new couples, after their first swinging experience to talk through the night, rekindling a spark they haven't felt in ages.

The real question is, do you both want, and are you prepared to swing? If you are curious, a few things need to be kept in mind:

1. Are both partners equally excited about the possibilities in the lifestyle? If not, one partner can become anxious or resent the other partner.
2. Are you in a healthy, content relationship? The lifestyle is not for the tender hearted or jealous partner. You need to know that you are both secure in your relationship. Exploring the lifestyle will not revive a weak or toxic relationship. The issues that surface can bring you closer together if there is a strong foundation building. The issues will tear you apart if communication is not solid and continual.
3. Are you socially secure enough to go and meet other like-minded couples? Shyness, while accepted, is a barrier. Be proud of yourself and your mate. Swingers are less likely to judge you for superficial reasons. Personality, over most other things, is definitely a plus in the lifestyle.
