Starting a group on a certain website geting interest in a school reunion. Set it up a few hrs ago, 17 members and awaiting reply from 61 members! OMG I only asked about 25 people!! :bounce: :bounce: people have recommended it! :bounce: :bounce:
I'm so happy!!!!
Yeah, once you'd found the button.
Glad it's working for you
I'm told that Redtube has an entire Anime category. So it must be a pretty big draw to some (do you see what I did there?)
Anime is now covered in Art at secondary school- quite in depth seemingly...and it's being taught to a generation who grew up with "Pokemon" 24/7, so I guess that factors too.
In Porn, I think the appeal is that (I'm guessing) you can "make" the participants do stuff you couldn't get away with with real people legally. Real boundary pushing stuff- coz it's just a drawing, innit?

Oh someone I'm sure will be along and say "remember when Tea was brewed in a pot!" "Warmed at that"
lol i still brew my tea in a pot, and drink it out of a china cup, its the only way!
Do you know that now you can get kettles that plug into the wall too !
what are these plug things of which you speak lol
Ask Stormy.
Gawd knows. Apart from the practicalities, perhaps there's an element of highly charged emotions making people not want to have any regrets. 
Must admit, that I think I'd only do it if there was a pressing practical reason. I'm far too pragmatic and would be thinking "we were never bothered before, why does that change just coz I'm popping me clogs?"

All the employers I have discussed this with (not many granted) are very clear. Anything less than a C is a fail.
What we need is a way of differentiating the 20% of kids all squashed into A and A*. A few more questions on teh paper - harder ones - wuld do it, you may need to extend the exams - but it's better than facing an employer or college with hundreds of kids with effectively the same result.
In at least one company I have worked for, grade was the first filter, handwriting was the next and spelling/grammar was the next. Not because it was critical to the job, but it was the only way to get through the hordes of applicants before they all gave up waiting and found jobs elsewhere. And could be done without really reading the content of the applications. They knew they were missing out on potentially excellent employees - and getting a good grade and having nice handwriting and good English does not relate to being a good employee.
I screwed up my exams at school. I was part of the first year to take G.C.S.E's- and the best grade I got was an E (I think.) However, it wasn't a lack of ability, just apathy. Five years ago, I took a modular Maths course which I could do at my own pace, and a G.C.S.E in English. My English tutor tried her best to get me to go onto an English degree as she reckoned I was already better than her third years. I left that course with double A*.
I don't think the G.C.S.E was any easier the second time than when I took it in it's inaugral year. There is more coursework, granted, and that makes it easier to cheat...but the work was at a similar level.
The thing that struck me about your post Foxy was the handwriting element. My handwriting has never been nice, or neat and tidy- despite my teachers best efforts. However, after a car accident a few years ago which knackered my right arm, it's now atrocious. I can't draw anymore either. :cry: Being judged on my handwriting would be a nightmare for me. Perhaps I should train as a G.P...

There was a thread on here not so long ago that had as its title something like "Straight guys who suck cock", surely that's an Oxymoron if ever there was one? How can one, by definition, do the other?
To me that's a bit like saying I'm a vegetarian, but I eat Chicken and Bacon and the occasional beefburger.
But do you suck cock?

Get on the back of mine, and you can experience.
But I would probably be too fast for ya, and we don't want you leaning too far to the right on it.....do we?
If your riding is as rapier as your wit I am sure that your speed will hold no surprises...... and I never ride pillion.
Not even with me? :rascal:

From 'what is a munch':
'A munch is a purely social event held in a totally neutral environment'
So by that definition, Goldsmith's dinners in an hotel could, I suppose, be classed as a munch, as long as they are open to all members with no restrictions on types of member, ie. single males. You can't have a munch and say 'couples only', for example.
Exactly my point, at my event, everyone was welcome, we had singles, couples, CD's etc there and all were sh members, and it wasnt a playing environment, but it was deemed not to be classed as a munch, which would have been nice as it could have been stickied. I did wonder why at the time, but was told that it wasnt so.
I feel much better now its clearer. Thanks xx

can I also chime in for two seconds as well.... just as i have looked at what you propsed for your socials... I would also consider then socials for a few reasons....
maybe it is me... but organising a munch is a huge task (trust me... been there, done it, not really keen to do it again also i keep being asked!! lol )
a few things i would consider... your last social only gave people 10 days notice, and when you put up the original list there were already pre-ordained names on it....
another is cost... your socials are much more expensive than munches are
when you see the likes of leeds (which had 150 people there... and wigan (which already has 170 names of people wanting to go) this things are organised months in advance.... giving people time to arrange things like travel, hotels, childcare ect ect....... and are always first come first serve...
people will come from all across the country to support a munch..... a few of the southern ones have been hijacked by northerners all coming down... lol
not knocking what you do at all... and i encourage that you keep doing it, one of my biggest sh regrets is that i missed a medieval social banquet they had a few years ago.. and that is probably the closest i can relate yours too...
I wish you would put your name down for one of those see how the rest of us live so to speak... maybe then you would have more people put your name down for yours....

Well thanks for that! I am so glad you put me right on how to organise events. You might be interested to know that part of our work is event promotion and organisation (that's festivals, concerts, tours, carnivals, weddings etc) from start to finish, and I do realise how much work goes into any event.
The ‘pre-ordained’ list was the list that had been put together by me from people who had actually asked me when the next social was going to be and could they please come. The social wasn’t planned months in advance, and it was put onto the forum as soon as the date was agreed with the hotel.
As to 'how the rest of you live' do you think I live on the moon? I have been to other socials/munches and that is why I tend to organise my own (read into that what you wish).
I know there are some really nice socials and munches organised, and the main reason we don’t go to them is because we are usually working as most of our work is done at the weekends.
With regard to the cost of my socials making it not a munch - what the hell difference does it make - this event at the hotel was a four course meal for - which I think is a very good deal - you get what you pay for mostly in this life. If people want something a little special, then it has to be paid for. I will stress that not one penny profit was made from any of my socials, the hotel charged £15 for the meal per head, which is what people paid. There was also entertainment, which I covered, and there was also a lot of time, effort and cost to the event, which I covered.
I think we have already established the difference between a munch and a social, and my hotel event was certainly within the guidelines of a munch even though it was a bit more expensive - a car is a car whether it’s a BMW or a mini.

I had to butt in. I'm like that. Goldsmith, I'm not sure that just because your "do" differed from the usual munch scenario it shouldn't be called a munch- at least not if that's the only reason. If it fits the stated criteria, but just doesn't sit right with admin, then perhaps admin should rewrite the guidelines.
However, I am sure that you just recieved some sound advice from someone trying to help- and doing so as politely and encouragingly as possible- and in return were bloody rude.

Im here for the banter in the forums....and i have made some cyber friends whom I miss when im not here. Witchy hit the nail on the head (for me) when she said
I'm here because I have friends here I can talk to in an open minded manner. Friends who dont get when I tell an anecdote about being chucked out of a motel with three other people at 1am..etc etc. Friends- and other forumites- I can discuss complicated sexual issues with without being judged.
at the minute, i am pregnant, snd dont wanna swing with others, but im still shagging for england off site.
Hubs however still wants to participate, so he does if the opportunity arises.
swinging is a fluid thing....doesnt stay the same....., moods change, attitudes, needs and wants change...thats the nature of the beast.
does it really matter a flying fig why anyones here, as long as its not to hurt, deceive or cause trouble??
You were in that motel too? :shock:
Quote by Dlep
I've been away from the site for about 2 years (with the exception of a spuratic post here and there), and whilst I haven't done that much swinging when I was, I'd like to think of myself who has the appropriate/correct attitude when at a Munch/Social/Club/Private party.
However, if the opinion of some was to be implemented, I think I'd best be off now :shock:
(Don't think for one moment I'm leaving so soon though.... :twisted: )

I've had recreational sex with more people than inhabit Easter Island. And that includes the statues.
Many of these *ahem* cultural exchanges have been in classic "wife swapping" situations. It's been, on and off, a big part of my life- of my growing up- and of the making of who I am.
I currently don't swing. That's predominantly because as well as my non 'nilla husband- I have an utterly 'nilla lover who I've been "with" for quite a few years now- and he finds the concept difficult enough as it is. I respect his feelings- and as I was jaded with the whole thing anyway, decided to see how this "triangle" works out.

One day, I might change my mind and shag everything/everybody in sight. I might chuck in the towel completely and be *monogamous for the rest of my days.
There are half a dozen reasons I might leave this site. However, your not having the patience to skip to the next profile is not, and will never be, one of them.
*Excuse my language.

When you've spent a few days camping...you've not showered, your feet are an "interesting" colour...you could lose a small orangutang in the hair where your legs used to be...there are countries using satelites to eye new oil fields who are homing in on your hair...
you get home- and have a steaming hot bath.
Heaven.
