i'm in a bit of a reflective mood lately, so possibly an odd question, i don't know???
in the time i've been here, i've seen a good few regs leave the site for what i call "swinging issues". possibly they dipped their toes, and decided it wasn't for them, or never had any intention of swinging, but just felt at home here, then perhaps began to feel a bit fraudulent, or the threat of discovery on the site was an issue for them personally, or could be for their friends and family.
i know a lot of regs here have yet to take the plunge, sooooo, i just wondered, how many members of Swinging Heaven are not yer "actual" swingers, do you think it matters in the slightest, and if you should discover swinging's not for you, would you feel your continued membership was kinda fraudulent, or misrepresentative of your intentions at all?

Errr well id like to think im a genuine bonifide swinger,would anybody disagree with this ?
I can testify for Tonguey being genuine! hump
But Neil, what you have to consider is that people do have different degrees of swinging.
Some (like good ol' Tonguey and myself) go the whole banana. Some just like 'soft swinging' - wanking, kissing... that sort of thing. Some just want to watch and some only like to flirt with the idea. (Like our Easy among others).
Any and all angles are valid, and the title of 'Swinger' has such a lose interpretation anyway. The one thing one should not do is push oneself into a situation one is not happy with for the sake of wishing to appear one of the lads... Did I just sound like the Queen then?
But Neil... this sounds like something of a intellectual malaise you are going through. Care to come done this way and I'll rub your angst ridden torso down with some baby oil..? biggrin

I thought that was a given, Tonguey. :D
Here's a senario for you...
WBB and Me on a plastic mat with a bottle of Johnson's best botty glosser... How long would it be before you pounced? (Hosty would last all of seconds! :twisted: )

Corrie,

(Like our Easy among others).

Hey.....I'm Heathers easy... :mrgreen: :bounce:
Yeah, like most blokes, the idea of a threesome really appeals to my male ego, but as
Mrs easy is unkean (slight understatement) to see me with another woman I doubt that it will ever happen. Which is kinda cool actually, because then it stays a fantasy and fantasies are always perfect. So I'm not that bothered.
The reason I stay here is because of the interesting people and subjects that are raised. We were talking in bed last night after having a quick (2 hours rolleyes ) scan of the site and Mrs easy commented on the adult content of the site. Not the sex, but how "grown-up" and level headed everyone is. This came after reading the "help me cum" thread. She liked bluethunders honesty and the way all the site members reacted with honesty and and a genuine attempt to help.
I don't consider us to be swingers, but after all it's just one lable and most people can think of at least 100 other labels that could fit them (father, mother, worker, workmate, brother etc) so why get hung up over one that may possibly be frowned on by some narrow-minded, repressed parts of society.
I feel sorry for the people that have felt they've had to leave because of the fear of discovery by others, but I can see their reasons why and I must admit it saddens me to see how little we've moved on since Victorian times. :cry:

I am in more of navel contimplation mood at the moment but I am not a swinger and after being here since Feb on and off I think thats gonna be how I stay. So why am I here? Because I like the people on here who are or who are not swingers. I join in posts that I enjoy, I like the piss taking and banter and thats okay.
I left because I felt a fraud being here and not swinging even though I have been to munches. I am not a watcher, I am not a sad old bird who cant get a life I am an independent thinker who wont be told what and where I can go!!
What is great about this community is its acceptance of people but also I feel safe as there is intolerance of people who are abusive etc.

:cheers: and it's lovely to have you back Corrie. :rose: :wave2:
A couple of trips to Rios with the same guy is my total experience so far rolleyes hardly swinging, in fact, not gonna win many awards at all with that effort! lol
Curiosity brought me to this site as well as a couple of others ...... but the people and their outlook kept me on this site, when I had long tired of the others. I don't feel pressure to launch into anything, I don't feel that talking privately to others or attending munches is leading people on. I've found a bunch of wonderful friends with whom I can share a lot of things with, and who know a whole different side to me that people closest to me have no clue of.
I mean, how many swinging sites would I have found a partner to read Stephen Hawking 'A Brief History of Time' with :lol2:
Having said all that, I am still very keen on the swinging concept - to what degree I don't know ........ but bluddy looking forward to finding out :twisted:

I presume you are also putting a long distance sprint, for Hosty to reach you, into that equation

I'm not a swinger (though I tried...), I just have nowhere else to go.
Mars and I have yet to swing, but plan to. I sincerely feel that we have had the desire and discussed the matter enough for swinging to be a reality for us in the near future, and in the event we back out of an encounter I feel that it would likely be due to a incompatability issue with the couple rather than simply swinging not being for us. Of course, we don`t plan to let an encounter get that far if this was to be the case, but having never done it before, I do worry that an unforseen circumstance would end up with us inadvertantly being seen as timewasters.
However, just for the sake of argument, we were to find swinging wasn`t for us, we wouldn`t leave the site, nor would we feel obliged to. This site is about being a sexually liberated adult, and having interaction with likeminded friends. I would still feel that we fall into that catagory, discovering that swinging is not our sexual preference would not take us out of that catagory, it`s just a matter of preference, and preferences here are nothing if not diverse!
Personally I think there is alot to be said about the ability of SH to help people along in their sexual explorations, and we are both throroughly enjoying this, and I don`t think many here would have it any other way, regardless of how those explorations turn out. smile

I'm a swinger born and bred (well, maybe not "bred" :shock: ), I have been for a long time and will be for a long time to come. Monogamy equals misery to me. One day I WILL be the oldest swinger in town, pulling young lad's pants down and spanking their fresh young asses with my wrinkly old hands cool ...... ahem.........
*Pull yourself together, Blue*
:twisted:
Anyways, I'm a swinger but I like to talk crap too, that's why I'm still here lol :lol: :lol:
I did swing but now I don't and that suits me.
I like the social side - the Forum, chatroom - and the hotel munch was great fun.
Can I stay? confused
Yeah, I think we can still squeeze you into the member list, Marya lol
Ah, I'm not swinging tonight and I've got withdrawal already....
:eeek: :eeek: :eeek:
Does anyone think I've got an addiction problem?
:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

My gratitude is eternal - but I suspect you get enough satisfaction from squeezing members! :lol:
I found this site via a Google search based on something my brother-in-law said in passing conversation.
I make no secret of coming here (the site) looking for an easy lay without the usual emotional requirements. Sex for sex's sake you could say.
When I found and joined in the Café, I found something other. That I didn't even realise I was looking for. I found a group of pretty much like minded people, who are by and large open, frank and adult in their view not only of sex but many other aspects of life.
The help and support I've had from the people here, when I've been feeling sorry for myself AND when I've been 'on top of the world' has really opened my eyes about the people here.
I didn't find my 'easy lay' and to be honest, I'm no longer 'chomping at the bit' to find it. I've enjoyed my time here and while ever I do, and feel welcome; I will stay. I really do enjoy the 'crack' of the place. I went to the Motel Mini Munch for research (lol) and will be going to the NW Munch for the social event. As I keep hearing throughout the site, if anything else happens; that will be a bonus.
So, no Neil; I don't consider myself a Swinger by any of the definitions I've read, but nor do I consider myself to be a fraud by being here. I come in here for the social interaction that is so readily available. I suppose the Café is one long virtual Munch for me. I've even managed a couple of visits to the chatroom, msn and messenger. None of which I would have done without being here AND getting help from people here.
As for people with "issues" don't you think that 90% of people in general have "issues" and "baggage" that they carry around with them? I know I do. Some going back as far as the late 70's. Why should people here be any different? Is it not "all part of life's rich tapestry" I believe so. And that everything that ever happens to us contributes to making us who we are.
<dambuster stands by for jokes about laying Easy>
Me and mrs davej have a dabble now and again when we feel like it, through visits to clubs and through contacts via this site generated by our advert. Why anyone would feel fraudulent about being a site member but not a swinger, is difficult to understand but then we are all complex in our own ways. Swingers or not, it matters not a jot to us, what does matter is that the threads and posts within them, are in the most part filled with comments that make us smile and comment that contain a smile.
Banter and piss taking, in the nicest possible way, is what keeps us posting. In a nutshell we just enjoy being here and enjoy reading your posts.
thanks guys, that's pretty much what i thought you'd all have to say. and yes heather i have been wrestling a bit of late ((( though sadly not in any way where baby oil n stuff might become involved! lol )))

2) Have one for general banter and let's see where it goes.

Well, what happened to the poor old General then, did he get too militant for the mods?
Mike.
Don't think I'm speeking out of turn when i speek for my partner and I, but even tho we don't actively meet and seek people to swing with, we would stil consider a spontanious opertunity if the time and mood was right. (hope i'm not wrong).
Similarly to VenusnMars, we haven't yet swung, but have discussed it and whilst not "actively chasing" the first time, we are ready and when we meet the right person will embrace the opportunity. We've been to a club and we're off there again next weekend, and whilst it will be great to participate, we love the sexual freedom more than anything. If we pick up a few friends on the way then we'll be blessed, if we share some experiences then we'll be doubly blessed.
I was chatting to a cafe regular on messenger the other night and said the best thing that I've found in this place is the honesty, you can be as open as you like and it's accepted (assuming you aren't a twat). That to me is so refreshing, to come into the Cafe, find like minded, honest individuals and enjoy adult banter without having to worry about boundaries (although I do accept general convention boundaries).
That reminds me I haven't been on my msn messenger in eons confused
Will have to include it on here for all the females to say hello, realise I have a wicked sense of humour & never speak to me again hump
You're all now part of the furniture of my life

Furniture? We`re furniture?! Gee thanks!
So long as we know where we stand! wink
