"The GG night, should be for Gg to play, not for couples to sit chatting, that is all I am saying I was at a GG night there, and there was maybe 30 mins of playing between 9 and 1. Not really enough when a lot of guys are standing around waiting. Of course it is the right of every girl to not want to play at any time, but is a GG night the place for you if you dont want to play a lot" Good point well made. And im sure you still had to pay the full entry fee. You are better just going to organised gangbangs. Cost of fuel/taxi is all you usually have to pay for. Theres no point in these so called swingers clubs asking for payment for facilities if there is no women there willing to use them. | |||

"That kind of post will put most woman off going to the club, where does it say that any guy who pays the entrance fee is guaranteed to play? The only way that would happen is if the club brought in girls so you could and then it would be a brothel in the eyes of the law!! So pay your money in the hope the some day females will turn up that are willing to even look in your direction. Fly (male half) " good post mate As I said I don't understand the point of GG nites but everybody to their own guys But if I go to a gay nite out and say I am not gay does that make me wrong If the lady not relax it will never work guys | |||

"Thanks for that! it is a great venue, but not worth 40 quid to sit about in for a few hours waiting on girls to play or maybe not to play. If girls go, then they should expect - after some chat to get to know the guys - to proceed to the bedrooms and start the fun, otherwise the club will die. " No, they shouldn't. They should expect to make their own minds up whether or not they want to play with any of the guys in the club. | |||

"Ffs, heard it all now...... You choose to go to a club and know there is an entrance fee. There is no guarantee of any play at any club. Women often go to clubs for the social side and, belueve it or not, also have a choice and say in who they play with!!! If you want to guarantee yourself a shag, then book an escort!!!! " At Cjs there was never an issue with girls attending and not playing. I am just trying to make the point that if you go to a GG or GB night, the expectation is that you play (in fact, I think Caroline may actually have said that to girls when they booked, I may be wrong) | |||

"I think a club night should be different from a greedy girl night, a new couple may be better suited on a club night if they want to take it slowly and both want to swop.... depends what you both want. if just multiple cocks, greedy girl night might be ideal... a new couple going may want to take it slow, more experienced should really play with multiple partners if there are guys they are attracted to. If couples get in at a lot lower price and are just going to chat knowing guys have paid £40, that says more about them than anything else." I think a swingers/couples nights would be the way forward for you. A GG night (at CJs) was exactly that, girls playing continually. on your second point regarding couples going to chat knowing there are pissed off guys, great point | |||

"I have been to many Gg nights at cj's and never once was there any hint of expectation that I should play " My apologies then, When I have been to GG nights there was always one or two girls playing, One night there was no girls playing and caroline herself played constantly for 2 hours! trooper | |||

"greedy girl nights are usually one of the most profitable nights for a club as it attracts multiple guys paying a lot of money..... that usually adds to the bottom line of a club and subsidises the maybe quieter club nights..... everyone who goes does not need to play, everyone has choice..... the point is if people go on a greedy girl night for a social chat, they risk damage to the club and the guys won't go back... I agree people do go for socials but it is after all a sex club, the sex really should be high up the list of priorities, if not wanting to play and socials, meet your mates in a pub. Most clubs are bring your own, so no profit margins there either... " Put much better than I ever could! | |||

"Guys still think you are missing the point Use not wonder why they are not playing Use putting them off guys I am listen and use are putting me off. " I am not saying that I expect to play, but if I go to a GG night, I expect the girls to play with someone, so at least I can watch :D When I was there last time there were periods of hours with no playing at all! | |||

No thanks, if girls want social meets, or whatever, then do not come to a GG night! Why go to a GG night unless you want sex? | |||

If guys go to clubs week after week, paying 40 quid to get in, and no one plays, and there is no one to watch, the single guys will soon stop going, clubs live and die on their reputation, and one where it is safe for couples to go and mingle is fine, but as was said above by another, the single guys pay the extra to subsidise couples | |||

"So correct me if I'm wrong Anyone paying admittance to the club should only be there for sex?

You can see why a GG night will not work if there are girls there not playing and guys bored and upset. If I want to go to a club and not have sex with a girl there are loads of nightclubs | |||

"As you say, that is my right. I choose who I play with not the club and certainly not any guy who thinks it's his right to fuck me just because he's paid £40 to get into a club. " I agree, thats why GG nights are a bit different (or I thought they were) | |||

" It is a nice club. It is friendly, not cliquey, offers GG nights, and swingers nights for couples. As far as I was aware there are different nights for different reasons. A GG night was very much a free for all. I was obviously mistaken, a GG night appears to be a swingers night where single guys are welcome, and the girls will take their pic of the guys and then the fun will commence. | |||

"Just my thoughts But I think it's wrong and somewhat rude to go to a GG night and just expect to get your end away, after all it is a greedy girl night and if the girls aren't, well, feeling that greedy then that's their choice. If the guys that show up aren't to their taste who says that because it a GG night they should just throw their standards out the window and fuck them because it's what they paid to expect Again just my thoughts " At last, someone gets it. | |||

"I was thinking of going along myself but after the attitude of some I will certainly be rethinking. I go to clubs for my own enjoyment and certainly not to fulfil an expectation to perform just to justify someone's entry fee. " The attitude is of the minority from what I've read, maybe the thread will also serve the purpose of reminding those who do attend that the entrance fee is not a gaurantee of play or sex. | |||

"There are NO locked rooms at GG nights at fox street, that is a rule they have (for GG nights) There was no playing at all for a good 2-3 hours. the 2 girls who were there were sitting chatting " Yes, and what they were probably saying to each other is 'theres no way im fucking all these guys'Can,t believe the stuff i read on here,do you think that every guy that paid expected to get a fuck? Because if thats the case, they don't seem very intelligent,as many have said on here already if you want to pay for a fuck then pay for one,going to any club,sex club or not ,does not guarantee anything,and with these type of _iews its easy to see why you don't get fucked | |||

The ratio of single guys to fems is stupid and we could always do with losing a few dicks especially if they think they are due a shag no matter who she is. Sexual attraction helps and that starts by makng the person feel good not a piece of meat (with some exceptions ie D/s) trust and friendship heighten the enjoyment and makes things go with a bigger bang. Anyone can have a wank but to live out a fantasy wether privately or at a club is an amazing feeling xx Bee | |||
