Lee noticed what I did, your final question.
Even I, as a swinger, thought you were serious with that question, so I imagine other non-swingers might see the same.
What I don't care for with any swingers post in a non-swinger forum is when a swinger takes the approach that their life is perfect and they make it sound like swinging is what has made it so. To me, your post came across like that. It sounded like you were bragging and see yourself as better than those who don't swing.
Through reading your posts here, I can see that isn't the case, but I wanted to point out how I took that Yahoo thread you started.
The concern I have with starting a thread like yours on Yahoo - or any other forum not swinger oriented - is that those who have no knowledge of swinging are likely to either be open to considering swinging because you make it sound like it is
the answer to a better life, or those who are closed to the idea will only post their contempt; no further dialogue on swinging is of interest to them because their mind is set against swinging. The thread therefore is not an "open" discussion, rather, just two opposing stands on the subject.
I think the best way to get correct information out on swinging would be to not push the idea of swinging. If someone brings it up, help them with their inquiry, but lead them to the Swingers Board.
