"Ideally, I'd love to go to more local socials, but I'm worried about coming across someone I know, or work with (hence why I go further away). How do you deal with this? Not everyone buys into the discrete mantra." Happened on my first one. Walked in to find my aunt's ex partner there. We don't like each other so we sat on opposite sides of the room | |||

"Ideally, I'd love to go to more local socials, but I'm worried about coming across someone I know, or work with (hence why I go further away). How do you deal with this? Not everyone buys into the discrete mantra." Part of me understands this but the bigger part of me really doesn't. I don't know why it would matter. They would be there for the same reasons and its a social, so no playing. They more than likely wouldn't bat an eyelid either. | |||

"Ideally, I'd love to go to more local socials, but I'm worried about coming across someone I know, or work with (hence why I go further away). How do you deal with this? Not everyone buys into the discrete mantra." I would either run screaming from the place or totally brass neck it and just go right up to them with the patter. Probably the latter then have a double vodka to calm the nerves  | |||

"How do you deal with this? Not everyone buys into the discrete mantra." Wait. Are they there for a different reason that we don't know about? Take ownership and be you. | |||

""hey guys, you'll never guess who I saw at the swinging club last night" Said no-one ever! " I'll use they when I'm in work next... Much prefer to hide in plain sight. If I meet someone I know I'd see how they reacted (if I get blanked then so be it) and just go with the flow. Ultimately we are all there for our own reasons, who's to know if I'm there for my first visit or I'm a regular without asking? Same for them, let the dialogue flow! As to meeting work colleagues there, I'd only be miffed if they went to play with anyone I had my eye on while it was a strike out night for me. FOMO at its best. | |||

"Not always as straight forward as being there for the same reason A few years ago a customer messaged me, thankfully he had a face pic on so I politely declined to chat which he politely accepted. At work this guy hates me so could quite easily make trouble for me. This doesn’t stop me going to socials but I don’t think I would risk going to a club in case he was there If I met a friend/neighbour/colleague that wouldn’t scare me I would just have a laugh with them about it " What is the difference for you between a large social and going to club? Either one is going to be the same for them. | |||

"Interesting discussion. Generally, I'll go to clubs, socials or meets well away from the Edinburgh/Fife area. In my job, being recognised could cause immense issues for me, so, it's interesting to hear other people's views. Not everyone is discreet, I know, to my cost "The crux of the matter though is that in order to out you at work, they would have to out themselves also. No one will torpedo themselves willingly. | |||

"We’re fortunate that we’ve only ever attended socials away from our local area. Doubt very much that we’d go to a local one in case of being recognized " Wish we had more local ones. Rare for Dundee | |||

It's the same for many. All in the same boat. It's sad that society has folk feeling like this. It's nothing to be ashamed of. | |||

You have to take this side of life with a slice of humour and playfulness. We are all sexual beings, it’s 2023 and people are fully empowered to explore.
I’d have my money on that Mark I was in Maths with. He had a pierced nipple at 13, kinky bugger! | |||

"It's a social. They won't have to witness you shagging someone or parading around in the nude. I don't see why it'd be a problem x" Although you might all be there for the same reasons some folk don't care who knows their business and others do. You don't need to be shagging, I wouldn't want people to know I'm on this site. Let's face it, according to society, it's more acceptable to have an affair than to watch your partner have sex with others. Swinging is frowned upon and also an interesting topic for folks not on the site to talk about. I like my private life to remain private, every one of us know that even verified users blab, having attended a large social year's ago I witnessed quite a few folks there tell others outside the function room why we were all there. Then mobile phones came out and people were being filmed going in and out. I'd never attend one again. | |||

If you manage other people and meet a person you manage then you get into a strange power dynamic. People could manipulate that in a ‘Now I know your secret I was wondering about asking for a promotion’ way. | |||

"If someone did reveal that you were on here, had been to a party or parties or went to a club and tried to use it against you would that be considered to be bl@ckmai1. As mentioned above taking photos or videos could be the same as sharing nude photos without consent and get them on the register. I suppose some people don't think much further than their next cup of coffee. " If you took a picture of someone fully clothed at a social event for swingers and then shared on social media with a ‘Some pictures from the swinger event I attended’ comment would that really be considered breaking the law in a revenge porn way? If so what’s the difference between that and posting pictures at a gig of some of the crowd ? | |||
