Swinging with style

Because swinging is a lifestyle choice, you would expect there to be some etiquette that should be followed when enjoying your activities.  You are right and if you are new to the swinging scene you want make sure you do it in style.  Here is some swinging etiquette tips that will help you avoid some seriously awkward moments from happening.  The last thing you want is for your potential partnering couple to run away before you even get to know them.

  1. If you and your partner arrive to a swinging event as a couple, try to make sure you leave that way.  By following this rule of etiquette, you can be assured that you get to also leave with another couple to enjoy some quiet time.
  2. Always make sure you arrive at your swinging event on time.  Showing up fashionably late does not work well with this lifestyle, especially since group sex is common and everyone will want to get to know everyone else before the fun starts.
  3. Be polite and friendly. If you are experienced in swinging, your smile and thoughtfulness will make those who are new to the lifestyle feel more comfortable.
  4. If you can’t make it to a party that you’ve been invited to, always make sure you RSVP.  It’s rude to not let the host know that you will not be able to attend as they may have to order in food or beverages for their swinging social.  If are attending the party, ask your host if there is anything you can bring.  Even if they say ‘no’, bring a little something anyway as a token of thanks.
  5. Go to the party well groomed.  Take a shower, brush your teeth, put on deodorant.  Freshen up a bit before you escape for a little private tete a tete.  Bring a comfortable change of clothing with you as well – a negligee and boxer shorts are appropriate – and try to leave your valuables at home.  If you know you will be staying the night bring clothing, a pillow, and sleeping bag.  Don’t forget the condoms, gentlemen.
  6. Always remember that you have the right to say ‘no’ and if you find yourself in a situation that is not your cup of tea during this swinging event, you can say ‘no’ and walk away without an explanation, ill feelings, or embarrassment.  If you are the one who is said ‘no’ to, respect the other’s person’s wishes and thank them allowing them to move on as they see fit.  The idea is to have fun and do only what is fun for you.
  7. Make sure you practice safe sex while swinging.  The use of condoms is a must, not a maybe.  This is not an indication that anyone in the group is dirty.  It’s the way to protect everyone there.  If someone does not wish to use a condom, then they could be viewed as irresponsible unless everyone in the group that is participating agrees on a no condom rule.

 

Respect everyone else’s privacy, enjoy yourself, and make sure you thank your swinging host for an excellent time.
