FabSwingers.com forum: Swingers clubs/gay clubs or saunas

I haven’t been to a huge amount of clubs, saunas or other venues but I have noticed that in gay orientated venues, there’s always plenty of condoms and lube everywhere. Some also have a visit from sexual health professionals to hold clinics.

Yet I’ve never seen anything in swingers clubs. Why the difference?

The AIDS crisis led the gay community to take action to look after itself, and it got ingrained in gay culture.

It’s funny isn’t it? Also from the same era, and you might have experienced this as well, that we’re seen as a health risk, or dirty, by some yet I’ve seen more condoms used in the gay clubs than any swinging venue.

I can’t comment on straight clubs, but it’s of course entirely normal to get free condone and lube even in gay pubs and bars.
