"No idea why it should make any difference, but guess they have their reasons." Yes, the reason is most likely a financial one. See, if you charge £50 per single man, £10 per single lady and £25 per couple its the difference between £60 revenue and £25. | |||

"Clubs we have been that allow singles to "team up" have rules set so that they arrive, leave and only play as a couple. No single allowed to roam or play in the club on their own." So what if a married couple, into separate room fun, go to a club and play separately. Legitimate couple, sexual preference for separate play. What if only the man plays and the lady likes to watch? Then what? | |||

Then what?" We know couples who do this.. But in the club they stay, roam and socialise together or with their "new" partner for the night. It's just simply to avoid for example the woman sitting at the bar all night, and their guy goes off to play wherever or with whoever he can. | |||

"Ok as a single lady I sometimes have gentleman accompany me to a club. I don't have a boyfriend so I am not part of a 'real' couple. I arrive and leave with them. Both parties are free to play with others if they wish. One club has refused admission to singles going together as they are not 'real' couples. What are your thoughts? " People are going to couples nights to play with couples and if you're going with a single guy and "split up" or "play alone" then its pretty much a single guy in a club on a couples night. I have seen it in previous clubs and its not something im a big fan of (On couples nights!) | |||

"happend to me went to a g/girl party with a female from here and was told was not a real couple, as i had been before as a single." That's laughable.. both myself and my partner in perversion hold singles accounts for most places. And I've always taken a different guy with me till recently to greedy girl nights... Never had a problem.. The club's I've been to have never been like that. In fact I picked up a guy outside once too... Had to ask him name once in lol | |||

And this the issue - we have nothing against teaming up but then usually the guys wander off trying to crash in on couples...reason why some clubs wont accept that | |||

I do like to sit back and watch Lee play with others but I'm always there... Same as he likes to sit back and watch me sometimes.. we do like to play as a couple too x | |||

And if it's a singles night I can understand a club being pissed off if "couples" benefit from a cheaper admission and then do there own thing as soon as thry've paid their admission. | |||

That's a tough one to police against though, my wife can be quite a greedy girl when in a club so I often find myself at a loose end so sometimes I do take a wander around. Is it a little wrong singles going as couples....Yes as far as the clubs are concerned but we all do things during our normal day to day life to save money so why should it be any different when comes to this lifestyle | |||

"I have a singles membership at a club, it's a private members club. I can't take a guest unless he is a) a Single member or b) has a couples membership with me. I've only done it once. I think it's unfortunate that they don't have a 'guest' category for women like me. Just means I won't go ad often as I might otherwise." Or in fact a 'guest' category for either sex - or in fact couples!! It is often the case that friends from far afield would love to visit a club with members - and would be unable to do so regularly, hence little point in paying membership fees! The club would benefit from the one off entry fee, bar takings (soft or licensed) and the additional presence of other visitors! It's a win/win for all concerned!! Never understood why existing club members can't bring a 'guest' or several for a one off visit? | |||

"This happened last night. A male friend of mine had been to this club with me on occasion and several other ladies. So they knew he was not in a relationship with anyone in particular. It was a greedy girl night. I didn't understand their reasoning. He never plays with anyone other than the woman he goes with. As said above plenty of married men act as is they are single. " I do think that is a bit odd.. As I used to go to greedy girls nights and often take a chaperone with me.. he was also free to play with the other greedy girls if he wanted too.. guess they saw it as a loss in money. I know most greedy girls nights have free or heavily reduced entry for the couples with girls that are playing. | |||

I was going to say, yes, but as mentioned further up there is the lost door revenue to consider. However, with my business head on I'd turn a blind eye, as in reality there arnt going to be enough women to pair up with all the single guys, so you'll still make money, and if it encourages more females to attend then great! You end up with a club with 5 guys who payed a bit less but 5 more females.... Next time there will be more higher paying singles because there is a good rep about having lots of single females. ta-fah! D | |||

" I think the main reason clubs don't like swinging couples who go their own way going is because its just a way for single guys to get in cheap, if they go in with you then bugger off and play alone they are a single guy and as such should pay as one, many clubs limit the amount of single men that go, how can they monitor the amount going in if some are seen as a couple when going in? | |||

I think on a couples night it could be considered to be fluanting the spirit of the intended night it they then seperate and go off doing their own things.... | |||

"Aren't couples nights loss leaders in most clubs? They want them to come back other nights as well? So I understand that they want to maximise revenue and not discourage other couples from coming back. However I learnt more about the reason he was refused. He rang and asked them. Apparently because he plays in a private room with the lady that accompanies him only they thought he was just using it as a "knocking shop". Their words. I have heard this from another couple at a different club, they were banned as they didn't play with anyone else as well. They used the excuse that he was not part of a real couple to put him off. Fair enough it's their club so their rules. But that kinda takes away from the "no pressure to play" doesn't it? A club with no one playing with each other would indeed be no fun. I love watching others play myself. It's a balancing act, isn't it?" Was that from the owners or just a member of staff ? I do find that a very strange thing for a club to do. it does go against everything a swinging club goes for . The cynic in me suggests there has to be more to the story for that to have been said. | |||

I know of a couple (two married people but not to each other) who use the club as a cheap alternative to a hotel as they meet when they can get away... have sex, leave and I am sure we have seen couples meet couples in clubs who stay in their own little bubble not saying hello to anyone else and run off to private rooms... then leave | |||

Agrees with Fabio - Sorry we have been on couple and single girl nights and "teams" have been there. She stayed at the bar all night getting slowly d*unk and he started following couples around even went into the "couples only room"... This is the issue on the whole ..not that singles team up but that then one remains alone fully dressed and the other "hounds" the other couples... | |||
