Is Swinging becoming tacky ?

Jump to: Newest in thread

 

By *orseydave OP   Man  over a year ago

Norwich NR5

There was a time when having friends one swung with, was much the same as any other friendship, only instead of sharing a love of golf,gardening,trainspotting and sailing, we had a common interest in the freedom of love/sex etc.

Just this week I received an invite to meet a couple. "Just walk in, bedrooms on your left handside, the wife will be naked and on bed, just fuck her and leave" were my instructions !!!!

These sort of people are in my mind just fantacists, and have no respect for either themselves, the visitor nor worse than that, their partner/wife.

My friend Ellena calls them "Shell Suit Swingers".

So my question is "Is Swinging becoming Tacky"

There are many 'definitions' of swinging dependant on who you ask.

So whether it is becoming 'tacky' is subjective to your own perception.

To me? No. It isn't.

No you didn't.

"These sort of people are in my mind just fantacists, and have no respect for either themselves, the visitor nor worse than that, their partner/wife."

That's not a question and is judgemental.

I think its OK to judge why not? ffs its your life/body etc,etc, etc......

and can you truly have respect when you let anyone walk in do the deed and walk out? ok if thats your bag but not sure any respect can be involved...

I think the OP was right in asking this....... but some folks here think I can be very snobby anyway so its all good..

valid point to ask, why can't people who swing not judge others? its the world we live in that makes us this way......

I don't think anyone has said that people cannot form judgements. That is a matter for them, but surely there is equally no reason why others should not point out that they are being judgemental.

I make judgements on things I see daily.

I just don't always see the need for my personal views to be shared with anyone else. After all - their mine.

Yes people judge. But some also respect the choices of others even if it doesn't fit with their own views.

Of course we all judge. For one thing, we make judgements when deciding who to meet. We don't all feel the need to start threads criticising others and the way they meet and calling it tacky and using terms like "shell suit swinging".

Our way is better than your way, ner ner ner ner ner!?

The OP seems to think he's better than some others because his way of swinging is better, (according to him).

And he feels the need to comment on other people having no respect of others?! Brilliant

"No but it seems to have become snobbish"

This is an interesting thread.

Why has Swinging become Snobbish?

Our take on this is that with the

invention of the Internet, there are more potential playmates on show, therefore, people can be more selective. This can be deemed as snobby?

It's not they won't admit it. It's that they move on to something more to their liking without feeling the need to tell everyone else about it and be insulting.

being selective isn't snobbery but looking down on someone for their perceived class or behaviour is, either above or below your own perception of yourself.

Hi. We agree that there is more choice out there and people can be selective of who they do or don't meet, their choice and totally fine by us. The snobbery comment is people have differing views of swinging, almost elitist, and if your version of swinging doesn't match theirs then you are looked down upon as some sort of freak who is ruining swinging. We all have differing needs and wants out of swinging, this should be respected as our choice and not frowned upon by what we would term elitist swinging snobs,

I couldn't agree more but some people relish putting others down for what ever reason only known unto themselves.

I think part of swinging for a lot of orople is being able to act out fantasies, wether it be gang bangs, dogging, orgies, being watched or having a guy over to fuck the lady then leave it doesn't matter. None of those are my cuppa tea but if that's what people want then fair play to them for going after it. Don't see why it makes it tacky!

There are almost as many facets to swinging as there are swingers.

Some I like,

Some I am intrigued by but probably wouldn't do,

Some I have no interest in,

and

Some that frankly horrify me.

but it makes life interesting, and there are plenty in the categories I do like, so all is fine and dandy

To each their own. Agree with most posters. Just because something is different from what you do, doesnt make it a bad thing.

We did the thing of "Mrs will be on the bed, blindfolded and in nothing but knickers and heels"

And we don't even own a shellsuit!

But in all seriousness...

Communication is so important. They should have asked if what they asked was OK with you if it was their fantasy.

Talking about something and being judgemental and insulting are two different things though.Most people are fine with their preferences and fantasies. If you want to improve yourself, that's fine, but the definition of improvement is individually defined and subjective.

Swinging isn't 'becoming' anything! People like different things, like anything in life. What turns some people on, others may not like, or may even find disgusting.

We are not prudes by any means, but the things some people enjoy we find repulsive. Each to their own. If you don't like what someone else wants, simply look elsewhere. It's not difficult to find on here.
