Swingers Are Happy

Swingers rate themselves happier (59% against 32% very happy) and their lives much more exciting (76% against 54% exciting) than does the rest of the population, by surprisingly large margins. There was no difference between the responses of men and women.

 The study was carried out in 2000 by a private Catholic university in the USA.

Types Of Swinging

Although swinging is generally thought of as occurring among couples, there are a number of swinging activities that may include (but are not limited to):

Exhibitionism: having sex with a partner while being watched.

Voyeurism: watching others have sex .

Soft Swinging or Soft Swap: kissing, stroking, or having oral sex with a third or fourth person. Soft swap may be in the form of a threesome, group sex, or the literal swapping of partners.

Full Swap: having penetrative sex with someone other than one's partner. Although this is the commonly understood definition of swinging, it is not necessarily the most common type.

Group Sex: An all-inclusive term for activities involving multiple partners in the same vicinity.

Spin The Bottle As Swinger Party Game

One of the things that happens at many swinger house parties is that there is inertia among the guests. No one wants to be the first to get things started. So games can be a great icebreaker for those times. This one is spin the bottle adult style.

This game is an old classic. Lots of folks played this game as kids, for kisses, or sometimes for a cheap feel.

The more “grown up” version of the game still works the same in basic mechanics. It’s usually best to have everyone playing sitting on the floor.

All players sit in a circle. After determining who goes first, that player places a bottle on it’s side in the middle of the circle, and gives it a spin. Whoever the bottle neck points to (or closest to) removes an article of clothes. In the event that player has lost all his or her clothes already, that player must perform a “favor” for the spinner.

A simple game for getting your friends naked. That’s all there is to it. Play proceeds in a clockwise manner until everyone is naked.

Game Variations

There are a few possible variations on the game. Rather than proceeding in a clockwise manner, the person who last had the bottle point to them may spin next.

This game can be combined with other classics, such as Truth or Dare, wherein the person the bottle points to is asked the question, or given a dare by the spinner.

Stakes, of course are easily modified to any preference. Spin for kisses, spin for sexual favors, use your imagination.

No Swinging In Our Town

A controversial social club that advertised on swingers web sites had its zoning application rejected by Emmaus, LeHigh County in Pennsylvania. Hundreds packed a meeting to hear the zoning hearing board's decision.


Many of the people opposed the social club because it was rumored to be a sex club for swingers. One resident said "We don't need this kind of garbage. In my opinion, it's like legalized prostitution. I don't want it in my neighborhood."

Swinging Big Business In U.S.

Matt who works as a consultant at a Washington law firm told Reuters that he spends more than $10,000 a year to attend conventions, hotels and clubs where he and his girlfriend can have sex with other partners.

"Any other hobby that I was into at 40 years old is going to cost me $10,000," he told the newspaper. "Dude, I'm addicted to it, there is no doubt about it."

Swinging has turned the lust and passion into a multimillion dollar business. Lifestyles Organization, the nation's largest swinger services company, has annual sales of about $15 million.

Rick Conner, a swinger and author of an advice book for such couples, puts the number of swingers at 100,000 in the U.S. However, others have suggested the number is in the low millions
