"Might get shot down for this, but imho it’s very simple. If you’re single, you’re not a swinger. That doesn’t mean there’s no place for singles on here, some couples want to involve a single. I think a problem arises from singles with unrealistic expectations of the site." I disagree. While there are some singles on here who are just using it as a hook up site in the way they would use tinder, I do think it is possible to be single and a swinger. Especially if you are looking to meet couples or attached people. Some singles also have the intention to continue swinging with a partner if they meet one. | |||

They know how to have fun, and give fun! And certainly the club scene wouldn't be the same without them! I salute them! ![]() | |||

It's annoying as fuck imo. | |||

Well I’m a swinger and have been for over seven years, but because I’m currently not in a couple does that mean you’d not class me as a swinger?!!! What a load of old tosh!!! | |||

Don’t really agree because we know some fantastic singles as friends who are very much in the lifestyle (party animals etc). The last part (unrealistic expectations) is of course true, about single men anyway. | |||

"I really dislike the single/ couple divide. I'm a reasonable person, apparently attractive, considerate, etc. I'm a bisexual woman. "Singles are awful, dreadful, blah blah blah... Why can't we meet a unicorn?" Some singles are bad. Some couples are bad! " Well said | |||

Especially if you are looking to meet couples or attached people. Some singles also have the intention to continue swinging with a partner if they meet one." The term “swinger” was first used to describe a couple who chose a non monogamous relationship, I.e, they have sex with others. By definition, you can’t be single and be a swinger. It requires a partner. Over time, singles looking for nsa sex have adopted the term swinger, that doesn’t mean they are swingers in the true sense. | |||

However not every couple wants to meet another couple, Many want a single male or female & without the singles, It wouldn`t be quite the same. Technically singles are not swingers but are a vital part of the scene. | |||

" While for some people they have parts of their lives when they swing and parts of their lives they don't, I think others see it as part of their identity whether they are in a relationship at the time or not. The same way that a bisexual person is still bisexual even if in a heterosexual, monogamous relationship. In a similar way, I would still call myself polyamorous even if I was single. | |||

Nothing entitled about us, merely explaining what the term “swinger “ means. We have no problem with singles, they are an integral part of the scene.

You’re welcome Happy swinging ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I think the swinging scene has evolved and so the definition of swinging should also change. To be honest, there are quite a few couples like you who seem to think that singles are just people you've invited into the scene as an accessory to your sex life. I go to swingers clubs and if I ever chose to enter into a relationship it would be with a fellow swinger and I would continue swinging, I think swinging is more about your attitude to sex than your relationship status. | |||

Really think some people here need to use google, Wikipedia has a very informative page, “swinging (sexual practice), it explains all. You’re welcome Happy swinging ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If you tell people that they are wrong in how they identify themselves and basically say " I'll let you call yourself that if it makes you happy but you're still wrong" then that is not only a bit rude but it implies that you have superior knowledge and everyone else is less knowledgeable. Directing people to Wikipedia followed by "your welcome" is also rude as it is the first result you get when you Google anything and anyone who manages to use this site I would assume is perfectly capable of finding that themselves. Wikipedia is also an incredibly unreliable source of information as you can edit if yourself. I could edit the Wikipedia page to say that swinging is rubbing two coconuts together. The Oxford dictionary definition is "a person who engages in group sex or the swapping of sexual partners". The Merriam Webster dictionary definition simply says "one who engages freely in sex". The Macmillan dictionary definition is "someone who exchanges sexual partners with others". None of those specify that you have to be in a relationship. Other definitions do mention couples. The Collins dictionary specifies married couples. I'm sure many on here would disagree that you have to be married to swing. All the various definitions prove is that there isn't a rigid definition so nobody can claim to know it. These things evolve over time anyway. Relationships don't work the way they did a few decades ago when people got married younger and had fewer relationships before marriage. A lot of my generation are choosing not to even getting married at all. As relationships change, what is considered swinging will change. There will also always be grey areas as life is rarely black and white. It's interesting really. | |||
