I'm not sure what you want me to say here. Religious experience? Extramarital sex? No, not quite. But the things
within my relationship with Mr. intuition that swinging highlights or punctuates have been something like a religious experience, yes. It's not the sex that I'm extolling the virtues of. It's the opportunities that it affords our relationship that I love.

You talk as though you weren't a swinger. Is this the case? All I know is that FOR ME/US, I wouldn't live any other way. Anything else would simply not feel as honest or natural. You can play however you want and it's nothing to me. Just because I have an opinion about it doesn't mean you have to listen to me. And vice versa.

Depends on who you ask. If you ask me, it's about putting sex in its place and not allowing the tail to wag the dog anymore. It's about purposely de-idolizing sex and using it responsibly to improve our lives and relationships.
