I think it is basically that yes. I've been to porn conventions and I've been to many swinger events. They are two very different groups of people. So yes while swingers may enjoy porn and can have a great time at a porn convention.... a porn convention is not a swinger convention. The fact that the event in question is primarily sponsored and hosted by the porn industry invites & attracts a different group of people than what a true swinger convention attracts.

I will be very interested to hear overall how the event turns out. As I posted in the other thread my issues with the event were many and the porn aspect was really the least of it. You've got non-swingers who have never hosted ANY swinger event suddenly deciding they want to put on the largest "swinger convention" ever... or at least claiming to do so. There will be a turnout simply because enough people will read the marketing material and believe it and sign up, but it won't be the turnout they claim to have. I have a feeling that a large percentage of those that do turn out will be those we've been discussing in other recent threads that have turned our clubs into zoos.
