To me there is alot of difference - we have had a fantasy of where I pick a guy up in a bar and take him somewhere and do the deed, but in reality it was very unfair I felt as I knew why I was doing it (under hand and sneeky...) and he thought that it was cause I liked him none the less he got what he wanted and so did we... lol

Is it swinging if couples have individual profiles and swing alone? Is it swinging if you're a MM couple? Is it swinging if you only play with your own partner? Is it swinging if you're gay? Is it swinging if you're Domme? Is it swinging if you're sub? Is it swinging if you don't go to clubs.

Being a very busy professional and with children who won't leave home my leisure time is limited. Therefore I tend to spend my time with eager men buried between my legs to question what swinging is, what people have on their profiles etc!

But hey ho...each to their own!

Yup i thinks so deff

Before the Internet when it was contact mags and chance meetings etc and the word swinging was being introduced instead of wife swapper

Single males and fems used ta go ta the parties and all were classed as swingers then lol xx

Surely its down to what is expected?

If a single man/woman is here because they enjoy sex with other multiples of people then its swinging.

If they are here because they are looking for a regular partner to have sex with, but not have a true relationship with that person, that is not swinging. Its having your cake and eating it!

They want their physical needs taken care of without the excess baggage of calling someone their partner.

And unfortunately there are lots of people on here looking for just that. Using the site as a free version of a dating site, which as we know charge a fortune.

Having said that, see more fem profiles that make me suspect that they are looking for a relationship than I do male ones.

The way the profile is written and seeing jealousies in chat or at socials can make me think this.

Personally, I do not consider myself as a true swinger, as I only play with gents that are genuinely single.

However, I meet such gents via communities, events and venues cater for swingers, such as this site, pubs where socials are held, and swingers clubs such as Chameleons.

By meeting gents this way, I know I would meet like-minded peeps with similar expectations.

This means I do not have to explain myself what I am after, my likes and dislikes, without causing offence.

In addition, meeting peeps off FAB means I can vet them thoroughly before actually meeting them face to face.

I can find out if we click, have similar values, compatible in anyway, and above all, whether we have the elusive chemistry between us.

It is rare nowadays for me not to know what a gent's body or cock looks like, not just the face, prior to meeting him face to face.

Not something I can do by trawling vanilla bars and clubs.

Just because I am not after a relationship does not mean I would play with any Tom, Dick or Harry.

And places like FAB and Chams make it easier for me to meet and play with like-minded gents, without being judged and considered as someone with dubious moral standards!

Swinging is just a word. In all walks of life there are people who need labels and defined interpretations of those labels. Many of the labels mean different things to different people and change with the passage of time.

If you consider yourself a swinger then you are, simples. The truth is there's very little difference between the swinging scene and the active 'vanilla scene' when it comes to singles.

"If your looking just for sex and no ties with diffrent people its swinging in my eyes....."

So every single person that sleeps around then is a swinger by your defination. Erm, don't think that's quite right now, is it?

To us, a swinger is either a person that is attached that chooses to play with other attached or single people.. or a single person that chooses to play with other attached people. Someone that is single, that chooses to play with other single people is NOT a swinger, even though there are a lot of them on here. That's just someone that likes sex with many partners.

Now, not saying they shouldn't be as welcome as anyone else on here, after all, the swinging scene is about accepting others as much as it is sex, but sorry, you're not really a swinger. You're a serial dater, with the emphasis on sex. Anyone else see it that way?

I like swinging parties. I like sex with couples. I prefer group sex to one on one sex. It's just not practical to go out to a bar to meet couples or a group of people to have a night of fun with, also, it's tedious being chatted up constantly because people assume you're on the pull when you're out. If I go out to the pub, it's for a drink and a laugh. I don't go out to the pub to pull. This site works for me because there are people on here looking for what I'm looking for and vice versa. No hassle, just fun! And I love it

Who mentioned cake?!

If that's how it is then that's why I'm here. I don't want a relationship, nor do I want to date. I want to fuck. But I don't want to fuck a string of randoms. I'd like to fuck one or two or maybe even three or four regular people. I like sex with people I like. I think sex gets better the more you know someone.

I just don't want 24/7 and I don't want to go out for dinner every Saturday night.

I don't believe it's swinging. Perhaps if I see a couple then maybe at a push I'm swinging but apparently, in that situation, according to some I've spoken to over the years, I'm a facilitator.

I don't want to facilitate, hence I don't meet couples.

I'm just me. And I want cake!

I disagree - possibly because I'm biased being a single male

The dictionary has 2 definitions of swingers (in this context - obviously it has more than just this).

-------------

Swinger –noun

Slang

a) a person who indulges in promiscuous sex.

b) a person who engages in the exchanging of spouses for sexual activities.

-------------

So, whilst I don't dispute that swinging refers to what used to be known as wife swapping and has the emphasis on couples swapping partners with other couples, I believe it also refers to those who have casual, recreational sex regardless of whether they're in a couple or not. That covers couples who play with singles as well as singles who meet other singles.

That's just my interpretation. Feel free to disagree with it.

if your single no i dont think its classed as swinging, i did look it up from a friend of mine google ya call him so of you might know him here is what he had to say

Terminology As a general rule, swinging COUPLES engage in conventional sexual activities, but with other partners. Penetrative sex by a swinging partner is referred to as a full swap; while non-penetrative sex, such as oral sex, is referred to as a soft swap. New swinging couples often choose a soft swap before they are comfortable with a full swap, although many couples stay "soft swap" for personal or safety related reasons.[3] Soft swinging occurs when the couple engage in sexual activities while two or more other couples perform sex acts in the immediate vicinity.

Do it all but no cake on a diet lol. It fits around my lifestyle I am a single parent and no time for full on relationship married to my kids and when I get to swing I get to be me and free and I love that saying that now my eyes have been opened wide. I could never go back to a straight monogomous relationship as love the freedom of swinging too much to stop it. So would need an open one as I dont cheat.

Well we never meet couples together as "swapping" is something we just would not be interested in...

We much prefer me to have 2 or more single guys either with Master there or not.. ( Master always watches)

Hope to get some women for Master to enjoy at some point too..

Are we swingers, erm. dont know, dont care.. but we have a lot of fun. :D

It's really just down to how you define swinging isn't it really?

We still see swinging as swapping partners. On the other hand though, if you consider "no strings" sex with others as swinging, then yes, singles do swing.
