"Is it just wide-spread sexual tension?  "No, just different personalities rubbing against each other. I generally find that these are nicer and kinder than most though, there are some lovely people knocking around if you can see past the judgement and gossiping. | |||

"It does kill the mood sometimes though, you forget you are on a sex site "And *that* is where people go wrong - they see "sex site" and think it somehow means people have to act differently and lose site of the fact that members are in fact just normal people who have normal lives and just like real life will have those they are drawn to and those that rub them up the wrong way or that they disagree with. So for me, this place is no different from real life and I expect the petty squabbles and disagreements just as much as the flirting and sex talk - it's just normal behaviour | |||

"Is it just wide-spread sexual tension? "More like sexual frustration for some. I don't take the forums to seriously, not the centre of my swinging experience
But it's the internet, it always gives room for faceless people to insult others. | |||

Swingers site my lovely. Swingers site "And what do swingers do, play dominos? It's a sex site, in my opinion. You can dress it up, or dress it down but the majority of people here are here for actual sex or to perve. Only a minority of members use the forums. Nothing wrong with dominos by the way... | |||

"I'm not sure the distinction between sex site and swinging site is clear. The main "sex site" pushback seems to be, for me, "you expect respect and friendliness? This is a sex site!" If I had to live like that I'd leave, but fortunately (due to me being in demand or whatever else), I don't have to. " I’m guessing that when the site first started it WAS for the swinging community but the lines have been blurred over time. I agree wholeheartedly with you, self entitled people who think they can join and get instant sexual gratification are confusing it with any other sex site We’re all on here for our reasons.

This! "For me, it’s when people say ‘after all, it’s just a sex site’ that bugs me. I go to lots of group social events and always have guys I talk to beforehand asking if I played. I get fed up with trying to explain it’s just a social gathering. They then respond with ‘well, it is a sex site, what do you expect’ Drives me mad with that attitude and I won’t meet guys that think like that. | |||
