Question?

How can a single guy be a “swinger” surely he is just a player / shagger call it what you want?

I understand they have a place in the lifestyle some couples in relationships have certain fantasies of course I just don’t see them as swingers. I am probably overthinking it. Lol!

The same would apply to single women, too, wouldn’t it?

I think someone is probably best described as a swinger when they favour the idea of having multiple partners/FBs/one offs rather than finding that special someone, regardless of gender. But as with anything, I think there are many interpretations of the label.

I think a swinger is someone who prefers multiple partners. So single people can be swingers in my opinion.

I think swinging is more a lifestyle thing so, with all the singles, some are just fuckers and don't really get involved and some are swingers

I'm not sure it applies to singles as surely that's just frequent casual sex? I think there needs to be a relationship component too, so swapping couples, hotwives, hotgirlfriends, stag and vixen, cuckold, etc. Or those in poly relationships. But not cheaters. Xx

Labels and label police...

Can Real swingers only do real swinging... What happens if they slip up and just fancy a quick fuck? Is that somehow different to anyone else's quick fuck...? Mind blown...

Depends on the mindset. I have been on here as part of a swinging couple. As a general rule if we got the vibe that the guys we met would be open to swinging as a couple if not single it worked in their favour.

If we got the vibe that they'd NEVER do this if they had a partner we gave them a wide berth.

I think people should be able to describe themselves how they see themselves.

If a single male/female plays only with other males/females I doubt they see themselves as swingers.

If a single male/female gets involved in socials, parties, group sex, gangbangs etc then I don't see why they can't call themselves swingers.

At the end of the day having fun is far more important than how people see you in the scene.

I thought that swinging involved sharing your partner sexually with other couples. It's the swapping that is essentially swinging. So from that perspective single people arnt technically swingers.

I think it depends on their attitude. If they are only looking to play with single women/men, then no they aren't swingers. If they are happy playing with couples, straight or bi, understand the dynamics, that they are there as an extra, an enhancement then I would suggest they could be called a swinger.

I think we can get too wrapped up in labels. If we're going to say swingers are only couples that swap then surely we'd either have to change the site name to Fab sex people or ban all but couples looking to swap with couples? Either outcomes IMO are ridiculous. Language changes over time. Yes maybe to be true to the original origin of the word it should be only swapping couples but thats not what it means to me. As others have said its a lifestyle choice and how you participate rather than rigid couples activity.

For us it's more an attitude of 'what's yours is mine' combined with 'what's mine is mine' makes someone single just a shagger. But that's just an opinion.

There’s lots of singles male and female who have been in the scene a long time, who go to events parties clubs etc so if a swinging couple breaks up and returns as singles they aren’t swingers? Of course they are, there does seem to be a lot of singles on here who have had no joy on dating apps who come here for a bit of fun and maybe more

Oh come now. You'd think the way some people write that swingers are blessed with some kind of additional gene, some higher understanding.

Is it not all about connections and relationships and human interactions.

I'm interested in understanding if people think its genuinely a lifestyle choice or if its simply a pleasure and leisure activity like a round of golf or seeing a movie...

What shall we do tonight..? Fancy a beer and meeting up with a lovely couple and see what unfolds.? No? Let's go to the gym instead.

its Friday night... Its compulsory we meet strangers and fuck them.

The “swinging” 60’s was all about free love whether single or in a relationship so it wasn’t about ‘status’, just about free love. Swinging can be for many not the few!

The swinging 60s was about freedom from all forms of precieved oppression and social norms, free love was just one expression. Lots of people embraced the swinging 60s that didn't engage in free love.

Disagree.

Among many other definitions (including Glen Miller fans ) the Oxford dictionary defines a swinger as "a person who engages in group sex or the swapping of sexual partners"

So while a single guy may not be able to swap partners he can certainly engage in group sex.

Yes, that would be right. Lots of people outside if fab have lots of sex in different situations. I have had 3somes in my younger single days, wouldn't have seen it as swinging.

Just look up any dictionary definition of swinging and most include swapping spouses, which in my mind is swinging at it's core.

That's a very interesting point Bobbitupper (Hope you're keeping well btw ) Swinging is a lifestyle for singles and couples. Wife swapping is a totally different thing. All those couples that don't think it's for single males or females.We have known people split up from a couple and still swing as a single. Both the males and the females. We both were singles on fab before we got together so don't see it as any different in our humble opinion.

You’d think so, wouldn’t you? But it’s almost always single men who are told they aren’t swingers, and single women are unicorns everyone wants so no-one complains about us.

Yes, there are a lot of single men who don’t have a clue and aren’t swingers, and the only reason they want to meet couples is because they think it’s an easier way to get to a woman. And I wouldn’t have called myself a swinger when I first joined - I just wanted to get laid lol. But now I think I can reasonably call myself a swinger, and I don’t see why single men can’t be as well.

I think if someone is into threesomes (or more) that goes beyond casual sex as it’s not something that’s the norm in the vanilla world, and where else should you look for those things if not the swinging scene? But yes, if you only want to have 1-on-1 sex then I’d say you’re not a swinger.

Also, maybe it’s because I’m just a godforsaken solo (apparently non-)swinger, but the traditional “two couples swapping” sounds incredibly boring and limiting to me. Even on my couple profile I don’t want to be limited to that, I want the FFMs, MMFs, foursomes, groups etc. So much more fun.

Traditionally swingers are couples. Although some swinger do like a single.

I think I came to Fab because I was exhausted by trying to interpret what was required from more mainstream sites such as POF and knowing that whoever I hooked up with on Fab would be completely open minded about sex and what they did or did not like, enjoy or want to experiment with. I have met some lovely adults and some quite strange ones too over the various times I have been a fabber and I use it less in the sense of being a traditional swinger and more to find similar minded partners. I guess that means I am not actually a swinger but I feel it does give me an understanding and empathy towards what it means to be a swinger?

I think that's unfair to call every guy a player or shagger.

I have been into the lifestyle as a single guy for years.

I can honestly tell you I can get more sex outside the community and a lot easier.

But I love the lifestyle love the encounters I have had I would live to have a partner who I could share his with.But be honest how many women out there would do this.

And if your going to label all single men why cant single women be viewed as negatively?I would say 60% of women are after money.

However I have faith some are genuinely swingers.

That's a very good question to be honest, the same could be applied to a lady as well. I guess in terms of like sharing someone's significant other might make it a bit like swinging for guys and ladies, as most guys and ladies wouldn't just share someone's spouse/partner just like that.

I completely agree with this. I was sick of males either not entertaining u if u didnt sleep with them or blocking u after they slept with you. That's why I came to Fab to know where I stand. I love sex and on here the people are like minded. I think I am probably a fabber not a swinger then seeing as I am a single x

Some on a single profile are in a couple but swinging. I agree that it is more about what you are looking for that makes you a swinger whatever that really means.

I'm single but have attended clubs/parties/meets both alone and with guys or couples I know. I wasn't in a relationship with any of them but just enjoyed getting together and sharing experiences with each other.

I'd certainly class myself as a swinger. I've made some amazing friends on here over the years. And there are a few couple's who've welcomed me to join them on a regular basis at clubs or their homes. One friend of mine even sends her husband over to play with me. I get off it massively as I know they're both genuinely into sharing.

I think you can most definitely swing as a single

You say call it what you want but you refuse to accept the name many people call it swinging!

A swinger is someone into sex with different partners, that may be someone else's husband or wife, it may be two or more women at the same time or men at the same time it may be as part of a gangbang or even as part of an orgy.

Swinging is liberated sex, it may include a social side but it does not have to.

Hello guys,

For me to be a "swinger" you should have the ability to share the person you love with others.

If you haven't experienced the initial jealousy while watching your girlfriend/wife enjoining herself with one after another, I am sorry but you are not a real swinger! And of course, exactly the same applies to females!

At the same time you don't need to be a swinger to take part in swinging activities. When we do MMF or gang bang I don't care if the Ms are "swingers" or not. As long as my partner approves them and they know how to play the game I am fine.

People have different reasons to get into swinging:

- minimising the risk of cheating;

- spicing of their sexual life;

- fulfilling sexual fantasies;

- exploring new horizons etc.

As long as you are not selfish and respect each other's boundaries all is good and everybody should be happy!

Have fun!

Yes I think so.

Seen many a single male and single female fully emersed into the swinging community fulfilling their single status mainly for couples might I add for years on end, full swingers in our book. Not accepting old school thoughts that it's for the couples only who swap wives, especially those who've been in it 5 minutes over the singles by old school virtue. This 'community' has changed, evolved and become more innovative from the 'keys in the bowl days'. Thank God!

Of course single people be it male or female can be swingers.

If they are attending parties and meeting & playing with others then yes they are swingers .

Lots of responses and not read them all but here is our two pence worth...

Single guys absolutely can describe themselves as swingers in the condition that they are open to Different partner combos.

If they like threesomes, moresomes, orgies, gangbangs then yep that is all part of swinging.

However, if they only really want to meet one person at a time (female or male) then they are just shaggers/players because that can also be achieved in vanilla life.

So if what they seek to experience sexually is not vanilla then they are swingers.

Without doubt some single guys on this site only meet couples to gain access to the female. It is not actually the idea of a threesome (straight or bi) that excites them, it is fucking another woman and they would actually prefer the hubby/bf was not there. They are not swingers.

Should add the same applies to single women and TV/TS.

If what you seek is possible in vanilla world (ie predominantly non kinky 1-2-1 sex) then that isn’t swinging.

Fetish based 1-2-1 sex blurs that distinction but again, something you wouldn’t list on a vanilla dating app!

Another thing that this question always brings up for me is “wife swapping”. So many couples (and some singles) immediately jump to “no singles aren’t swingers, you have to have a partner to swap”. For me, “wife swapping” sounds horrible, as if the husband makes the decisions and the wife has no agency. Even worse is the “car keys in a bowl” scenario/stereotype. Equating the women with property and questionable in terms of consent? It’s somewhere between tacky and gross.

And before you all jump on me with your “swinging isn’t like that anymore”s and your “times have changed”s, stop and think because that is EXACTLY the point we’re making! It’s changed from that narrow and boring definition, and is now an exciting mix of people and combinations and possibilities. If couple to couple partner swapping is all you want, more power to you. But please stop telling everyone else we’re wrong for how we do it.

Single people in the swinging community offer people choice. How you define what a “swinger” is will be based upon your ideology however consider the most basic description of swinging:

slang the practice of swapping sexual partners in a group, esp habitually.

One could define fab as a “group”. There is no qualifier for “partner”. “Sexual partner” could have the same definition as “dance partner” or chess partner” in that you might meet someone for an activity and whilst engaged in that activity (that takes two or more), they are your partner.

So considering fab as a group of friends where people partner up for a limited time to engage in sexual activity the definition:

the practice of swapping sexual partners in a group, esp habitually.

Means that all those on fab have identified as swingers and as per the simplest description are.

I really think that the couples who insist Swinging is only for couples, have bad guilt about what they are doing. They need to call it something 'elite' to take that guilt away.

If they admitted to themselves that they're just shagging around and breaking the vows they made in church they would probably spontaneously combust.

For some maybe but I can’t really agree with this. There are plenty if couples (we are one) who enjoy group sex (ie three or more people involved). We don’t feel the remotest bit guilty about it.

Now because of how judgemental society is we don’t tell our vanilla friends and family about it but that doesn’t mean we are ashamed, just pragmatic.

As we said above, singles (men, women, TV/TS) can all be swingers but in our view labelling someone as such is dependent on what they are predominantly trying to find is non vanilla sex.

If what you are looking for sexually cannot be listed on a normal dating app/site then it means you are probably a bit “kinky”. Swingers are by definition (and viewed by society) as kinky and not the “norm”.

If what you are looking for sexually cannot be listed on a normal dating app/site then it means you are probably a bit “kinky”. Swingers are by definition (and viewed by society) as kinky and not the “norm”. "

I don't mean all couples.

"Question?

How can a single guy be a “swinger” surely he is just a player / shagger call it what you want?

I understand they have a place in the lifestyle some couples in relationships have certain fantasies of course I just don’t see them as swingers. I am probably overthinking it. Lol!

We have asked this question to ourselves alot, we don't see them as swingers, in our opinion, swingers are people who have sex, party's etc with other swingers, which is usually couples??

And yet, your profile says you’re looking for single men and women, so what do you call those singles that you meet?"

There is a whiff of hypocrisy in their statement to be honest I totally agree if you hold single men in such contempt why put younwant to meet them?

"I think that's unfair to call every guy a player or shagger.

I have been into the lifestyle as a single guy for years.

I can honestly tell you I can get more sex outside the community and a lot easier.

But I love the lifestyle love the encounters I have had I would live to have a partner who I could share his with.But be honest how many women out there would do this.

And if your going to label all single men why cant single women be viewed as negatively?I would say 60% of women are after money.

However I have faith some are genuinely swingers."

No disrespect intended and apologies if it came across that way

But I’m your opening sentence you singled out men and not all singles?

Not sure why the sex of a single person is relevant..

IMHO what makes the difference between a solo swinger and a player (male of female) is who they meet with.

I considered myself a player when I used to meet single women but now believe I'm a swinger as I play mostly with couples.

Lot's of comments, and the general feels seems to be that it's an attitude and approach that makes someone a swinger.

Which I would agree with. I would also add that the scene would be smaller and probably less interesting/fun if it were strictly couples only.

As has been said many times on FAB, actually you make your own rules and play how you wish. As long as no-one tries to force their way of thinking into being the only way, then all is good.

Wifeswappers have always said this, the swingers have a much more welcoming attitude.

That's a very interesting point Bobbitupper (Hope you're keeping well btw ) Swinging is a lifestyle for singles and couples. Wife swapping is a totally different thing. All those couples that don't think it's for single males or females.We have known people split up from a couple and still swing as a single. Both the males and the females. We both were singles on fab before we got together so don't see it as any different in our humble opinion.

Hi Mr and Miss Nice, I am very well thank you for asking. I'm swingling along nicely.

Looking forward to seeing you at the next Leeds social once all the panic is over. "

We love the Leeds social. Always a pleasure to chat with you

I do think it's very unfortunate that the majority of people who swing are single men. Must be something in that? I suppose it shows females simply have different preferences. However I guess there's always the need for a single person of either sex, when a swinging couple want to try something new.

"Lots of responses and not read them all but here is our two pence worth...

Single guys absolutely can describe themselves as swingers in the condition that they are open to Different partner combos.

If they like threesomes, moresomes, orgies, gangbangs then yep that is all part of swinging.

However, if they only really want to meet one person at a time (female or male) then they are just shaggers/players because that can also be achieved in vanilla life.

So if what they seek to experience sexually is not vanilla then they are swingers.

Without doubt some single guys on this site only meet couples to gain access to the female. It is not actually the idea of a threesome (straight or bi) that excites them, it is fucking another woman and they would actually prefer the hubby/bf was not there. They are not swingers."

I disagree. There's plenty of single men on here who are just using the site as a way to get laid but there's also single guys on here I've met or would meet one on one that I would definitely count as swingers and participate in the scene. The openess about having multiple sexual partners is a big part of it for me. None of the unspoken secretiveness you get with dating sites.

This so much!

I may have a wife and 2 girlfriends but I still come on here to get some action on the side.

Not clear on what you disagree with? We seem to be saying same thing?

To be clear in our opinion “swinging” is defined by sexual activity that is not available (or easily requested) through vanilla dating channels.

That will include kinky fetishes (that could be 1-2-1) and any form of group sex.

The part I disagree with is that you're not a swinger if you only meet one on one.
