Does anyone else feel this way and what can we do to ease the tensions before this site loses many of the members we have. We are talking about sex here but it seems more like poltical postering to me.

Let's try to be courteous and stick to subject at hand on these topics not change topic to suit your own personal needs just to be heard. If I anger anybody I'm sorry but these are things that need to addressed before everyone pays a price this is a great site let's not ruin it with bickering.<hr /></blockquote>This board is not for just talking about sex. Sex outside of our partners is a very small percentage of what we do in our everyday lives. There are some I am sure that live and breathe daily for sex, but I would say the majority do not, as they have jobs, children, non-swinging friends and other issues just like everyone else in this world which rasies outside issues.

Probably one of the most "heated" debates on this board was "Fathers Rights". It was one the affects each and every person differently and deeply. But if you will notice not only in that topic but many others too, that when the topic does tend to stray near the end, it is almost like "shaking hands" via the net and saying (not really in these words) "I agree to disagree, but hey I like you anyway." Therefore the topic will becomes light hearted and everyone cools down with a respect of each other and their opinions.

For the majority of the members of this board, when we are wrong or misunderstood, we come back, say so, apologize or rephrase ourselves. This happens in our everyday lives not just in our sexual ones. This board is not just about sex, but about people and their opinions, preferences and beliefs. When we stop expressing those then we become boring. Why bother posting anything then? Or for that matter even dropping in.
