We made the mainstream press.

Pretty accurate actually.

Seen far worse articles on it.

"the amount of dick pics on a profile is usually inverse to the amount of reviews, meaning that – no matter how pretty you think your cock is – photographing it from ten different angles predictably diminishes your chances of getting laid."

Pretty astute observation

Just read the article and I would say it’s a very fair and balanced piece .

The worrying part for me is the bit about breeding which seems to be more and more commonplace on fab now . I’ve said on numerous occasions that this practice is not what swinging should be about , but the media willl always run with it . So this is the bit where I say to those who say I’m too judgemental , I told you so !

.

This article is brilliant -

:Another common preference on here is that women want men to be "gym fit", which is fair enough in an economy of flesh, but not exactly a look most women on Fab Swingers have themselves."

Thank you Vice for making me practise my kegels as I snort coffee from my nose.

(An aside of sorts but I've really not seen this sudden increase in young women joining the site with daddy issues. I guess it will attract more users though).

Is that mainstream? I've never heard of vice.com but then I am not a 20-30 something it claims that fab is aimed at ..

Now we know why people want new users to verify by pic, unless he got around that by using a Photoshopped pic of a girl to get around it.

If he has asked me about the site, he would have gotten a different insight to the 23 year old.

He seems to have picked up on all the negative aspects, but it's fairly accurate.

That might be because you look for websites like vice. I doubt most people would.

Aye, they talk about all the negetives of it but don't focus on the community, the groups that form not just for casual sex, the relationships that spring up..

Maybe they didn't hear about that because they only focused on such a small section of the site?

No talk about the webcam chats or the forums either.. Just all the dick pics and barrage of messages..

Yep. But don't forget....99% of site users don't use either.

The article should increase the number of people signing up on Fabswingers, I'd say

I would agree with you .

And they have a tv channel too available on sky so no doubt this will make its way into that too at some point .

Fab Swingers is mainly great. Would not join a dating site as have no intention of cheating only swinging and chatting about swinging and now and again BDSM.
