Until you 'know' the new partner you will be doing casual.
The definition is simpler than you think.
Its not about having a list of the people you had sex with.
Its knowing who they were with before you have sex with them. Knowing that there is a sequence of partners who are as clean and safe as you.
That is why you have a group of knowing and consenting adults. Otherwise you let in someone who presents a risk.
The point is that when you know about the sequence of activity of a partner you are swinging. If you don't know who they last had sex with, you go back to doing casual.
Its quite simple.
OK - my back is up now.
WHY THE FUCK IS EVERYONE FOCUSSING ON THE NAMES ISSUE?
One person ONE PERSON - gave their own interpretation of what the term swinger means, - knowing about each others previous partners - an interpretation which they are quite entitled to and did not in any way ask anyone else to ascribe to- and suddenly, everyone who disagrees with this one statement starts an hysterical assasination of the thread because of this.
There are only two types of people that have so far had their backs put up by this. Me, and those who think the discussion should not be taking place.
It is too easy to sit there on your comfy little fence picking holes in other peoples opinions, without having the courage to stand up and say I THINK THIS.
Well I am going to take my negative thoughts and fuck off out of this thread, and I strongly believe that the second type of people I mentioned should follow my example.
A very very very pissed off Kat
MQ buggers off to make a badge with a wipe clean surface so she can write on the name of the last person she had sex with.......
The seemingly pointless need to label, categorise, define and even stereotype all relate back to a combination of our sociological and psychological need to create our self-identity and the need for sense of belonging or ‘community’ with others (whether consciously or subconsciously). I would happily explain this statement in more detail, along with referenced writings on the subject – but I would rather find-out where the sex is at and get shagged!
:twisted:
Its what I think makes the difference in the definition of the two words. And that is all I have talked about.
Looks like we are getting a few laughs out of this now.
