I hate to disappoint you, but I doubt that you will ever convince him to give up the desire. If it hasn't already happend, then he probably never will. I have always had a rule, the person with the most restrictive rules is in charge. If my wife didn't want to swing we wouldn't. She tells me I can go by myself, and I won't do it. It is either us together or we stay home. Now we will occasionally "play" seperatly, but that is never the intention it just happens, with mutual consent.
People rarely change. If your goal is to change someone you are going to beat your head against a stone wall with more sucess. Not all people are compatable and you have to accept that and make a decision of what you can live with.
