"That they don’t want people to know.
I think that a lot of folks read a lot into it though "
I agree. Like most things on here people often put two and two together and get five. I know several couples who use it and they just don’t want people to know what they get upto - simple as that. |

“Cheater, cheater, pumpkin eater" is a playful, teasing rhyme used to call someone out for cheating or breaking a promise, not literally meaning someone eats pumpkins. It's a modern shout-out based on the older nursery rhyme, "Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater". “ |

Surprisingly some of these comments.
We are discreet because we have young children and wouldn’t want them finding out or our private lives discussed.
Discreet for single males we do tend to think they may be cheating, but again, potentially in high powered jobs.
Interesting listening to other peoples perspective on the subject though |

It’s for people who want this part of their life secret, ,from their families, work etc etc
Or, a married person who’s obviously cheating and wants anonymity. The same as a “straight” man or woman who loves the opposite sex, but feels uncomfortable about it being public. |

It means things need to be done clandestinely and on the down low.
That immediately changes the "dynamic", because it means the other party (if they accept) are now complicit too.
That complicitly may harm another person in the joint deception.
.
Perhaps there is no other "partner". And the individual seeking discretion has another reason. That needs some serious jaw-jaw and discussion.
.
Bottom line is that when agreeing to "discretion", the person agreeing needs to be fully cognisant of the reason(s) why, because their complicitly might have the potential to harm another, and as such they need to be in possession of the full facts involved.
.
It's easier to adopt a "Sounds like too much shady shit and drama to me" and move on.

But on a serious note it could be
Religion
Relationship
Confidence
Famous
Work
Minimising stalker risks
Plus many others
Unfortunately one of those reasons takes the majority on here but I think it’s important not to assume.
Personally I’d like to hold hands in public

Surely if you're on a swinging site discretion should be expected and automatically assumed. Anyone feeling the need to specifically mention the fact they are discreet is usually hiding something and giving you the heads up that if you blab you will be revealing something that will harm the people they love because of they actions- ie if it's mentioned then 90% of the time they're cheaters, 10% in the closet. Possibly both. |

It's the need to state it that highlights something more I think.
People around me know about my lifestyle, but they don't know who I fuck, because I have basic respect for the people I engage with and their right to privacy. This isn't being discreet, it's just being a reasonably decent human.
I don't consider myself modest, but I don't walk down the street with my tits and flaps out. Just adhering to standard social norms shouldn't need to be specified 💜 |

Back when i started, it was the default and discretion was highly valued across the scene.
Somewhere, it morphed in to you requiring to have the sexual history of anyone you've had any attraction to, signed by the head of MI5 and displayed on Fab with your address and a picture of your ringpiece  |

To me it can mean one of two things...
Either they're cheating or that they don't want it broadcasted.
I have had situations where I've been out with non swinger friends and people have recognised me and have talked swinger. I had to cut the chat off and tell them to nicely go away as it's not the place. Luckily my friends didn't catch on as it was a crowded bar |

I'm surprised how many people here assume it is because someone is married &/or cheating
For me, discretion means that whatever happens between two people stays between those people and isn't blabbed to friends (swinging friends or otherwise)
Discretion is also part of the reason I never publically show a verification
Any veri I give is never sexual - more a confirmation that the person is real, was good natured and I was happy we met
It is no one else's business who I meet, under what circumstances and what went down
I am open that I am not single, but even when I was here genuinely single, the same rules applied
Discretion, for me, has more to do with the wish to keep my private life as private as I am comfortable with

I certainly don't want anyone to be the opposite of discreet so it's not a word that concerns me.
But agree it should be a given, and not something you need to advertise as if it's a selling point. |

In the case of couples I get it. Swinging is frowned upon and no one wants their business being gossiped about at the school gate.
When I see discrete written on a guys profile I assume it means they are cheating or are willing to fuck you but not be seen with you.
I'm not sure I've ever seen it on a single woman's profile.

Discretion is usually expected in the swinging world, and most other situations. If someone feels the need to point out they are discreet its a red flag for me.
If you need more discretion than you would normally expect from anyone invited to share something intimate then you are hiding something.
Most of the time it's a partner but I do accept there are other reasons, it's not actually for me to judge.
However, it is a prerequisite for me that a social happens in a public space. If your need for discretion means not being seen having a coffee with another human being in Costa then I will not be partaking in a conversation.
I need discretion for several reasons but I still get put off by someone claiming they are discrete on their profile. |

Makes no sense, discretion has nothing to do with being seen in public.
If I didn't want to be seen in public with you, I'd ask to be secretive.
Also you are saying that you want discretion, but, you don't want people to say they're discreet. 😂
When I say discreet, it's because depending on the person I'd meet, they may not want to be approached in the street, or they won't necessarily want to talk about Fab or swinging in public.
And as for myself I don't want my face plastered about on the internet, and because of my previous above.

I've never understood the assumption that the unlikely scenario of being outed as a swinger will somehow make you a pariah.
If you're that risk averse, then don't do it.
If you signed a morality clause for your job, then don't do it.

I think you're missing the point. Certain attributes are surely taken for granted and don't need highlighting as some sort of amazing USP or self pat on the back.
"No drama" - That's a pity. I genuinely choose drama if it's available
"Fun" - just in case you prefer dour and joyless partners
"Clean" - you old romantic, you
"No pressure" - my personal favorite because most people buzz on being pressured.
Discreet is always code for "FFS don't let my wife find out" |

Some of us have family who would take a lot of flak if other family members, their partners or friends found out where even on a websites with swingers in the title.
It could cause a lot of trouble for them, which can be avoided by being discreet.

You didn't show your face in any picture. So you are being discreet...
Does this mean that you are "cheating" on your partner ?
Presumably you have other reasons for being discreet too.

yes I agree - I initially think 'attached' but it's easy enough to ask and sometimes it is about jobs... if someone takes the time to explain that in a profile then all good. If its a dick pic profile and the blurb just says 'seeing what's out there' or 'daytimes good' then I'm offski. |

To me it means they don't want to make their private activities obvious.
Maybe they're cheating on a partner, sure.
But maybe they have a sensitive job, or perhaps they would prefer their families, vanilla friends, or neighbours don't know?
I'm discreet, even though I'm widowed and single, and theoretically can do wtf I like. But I'm not out to family, and I sure as hell don't need my neighbours knowing - for one thing there are three families with kids ranging from 5 to 13 nearby, and I can just imagine the potential for unpleasantness if they were aware I dressed.
So no, discreet can have all sorts of motivations.
Oh, and "discrete" means having the quality of being able to be divided into individually identifiable, cohesive units. Like packets of data, or quantised energy levels, or teabags.
(Pet peeve).

Ohh 100% it’s about explaining it or asking about it. If it’s a concern for you, it’s an easy one right? I see you need discretion, do you mind telling me why? But then again fab and nuanced conversation don’t always go together haha! |
