Omg! I have a garden gnome too :eek-2:

The garden gnome is hilarious because I know several elderly people with them in their yard. Pretty sure they are not hip to this lifestyle. But maybe they are? :eek-2:

How can someone be swinger-ish? Isn't it like being pregnant? LOL

Swinger-ish bc one of my birthday parties the husband was begging a friend of mine to come home with him and his wife. She didn't. Then I heard that on the train ride home the husband tried to solicit a random passenger on the train as well!!! I'm not sure if it was the alcohol or if this is the norm, hence the "ish"
 
This thread is hysterical. One of the men I worked with years was a swinger. Supposedly him and his wife belonged to some club. This man was not attractive at all by any stretch of the imagination. One of the girls I worked with started LOL when we found out and said imagine opening the door and seeing him standing there. Yuck!
 
This thread is totally hilarious!! I haven't ever known any, probably because I scream "good conservative Southern girl" and my DH is very handsome but is truly kind of a nerd, lol!!!! Wow, @StephanieLynn, I wouldn't even know what to do/say! :shock:

Singer!!!!

Which reminds me... when you look up furniture companies, you look up Kincaid.com, pulaski.com but DO NOT look up Hooker.com :lol: made that mistake.

Oh and if you are looking for a flag and pole for your RV and for a little fun present for DH, don't look up flagpole.com :lol: (I just checked it... new owner lol) And (OMG that was an eye opener...)
NSFW

Wife-swapping is what they call it here more than swingers

I've heard black rings on right hand and also pineapple door knockers.
We had neighbors 30 years ago who were into it and the wife tried to hint around with me. I ignored it and was not real interested in socializing with them---they were into drinking like frat boys.
And yes they were medical professionals.
I think folks that are into this, much like those who have affairs, somehow sniff like people out. Like a radar.

:shock: I swear my house CAME with the pineapple door knocker!!!! :lol-2:

Are you kidding me? I've heard senior homes are full of sex crazed seniors!!!!:lol:
 
Y'all are funny!!!

Stephanie, you have my email address. If you ever actually have any questions you don't feel comfortable asking here, feel free to email me.

For the rest of you, my first husband wanted me to swing. In Chicago. We went to a nudist "club" a bit south of Chicago over in Indiana once. Boy that was a trip. I wasn't really a willing participant but he said if I didn't go with him he'd go by himself. Curiosity got the best of me, anyway. I say, go to those places when your skin still fits. And that's all I have to say about it, really.

I was angry with my first ex for a long time for trying to involve me in the things that turned him on. I look at it a bit differently now. We just weren't sexually compatible. There is a lid for every pot, you know? He wasn't nice about it, and that was the actual problem. He tried to bully me into it, and that just doesn't work in healthy relationships. I learned a LOT (more than I ever wanted to) about the lifestyle, and it is so much more prevalent than many of you would think. Like, I felt like it was EVERYWHERE when I first started actually being somewhat receptive to listening to him justify it.

It still seems to be everywhere, even though I no longer live in a big city. Here, it's the upper middle-to-upper class set who are involved in it. Drugs, sex, very expensive lifestyles, cars/boats/homes. In little old small town Indiana. LOL

People like what they like. I don't judge anymore. I was very naive and young when presented with the option to swing, originally, and didn't really understand it. I am still uninterested, but I can see the appeal it might hold for some. Good for them. I hope everyone in life finds what satisfies them or even exceeds their expectations!
 
God help me - now I can't say the words "swing sets" and "play ground" without breaking into a fit of giggles!:lol::lol-2:
 
Oh I like that "lid for every pot" saying. So true and thanks for offering to get me up to speed on this lifestyle Monarch. We did actually discuss this a little more in depth and I basically told her that I am a one person kind of girl, even if I wasn't married I wouldn't get involved with her because this is a physical thing not a love thing (at least in her case). Yes I have only had relations with people I loved in my life so this casual hobby lifestyle they have is just not for me. We are cool, I actually talked to her today and there's no weirdness or anything so we will just keep it moving that way.

Tekate, the way you worded that post was just too funny, I know you might not have meant for it to come off that way but I got a good chuckle out of it.

I have learned a lot from posting this thread, like I might need to seriously reconsider my choice in garden decor. Also no pineapple door knockers and just to be safe I will never bring a pineapple to someone's house. Just playing it safe.
 
I am not getting rid of my garden frog statues.
 
I've never heard the pineapple thing and it's probably bullshit. Just saying.

Maybe I missed something in the Swingers' Manual? My best friend from college had pineapples all over her house (a sign of "welcome" not "will come") she is devout Catholic and NOT a swinger. Back in the early oughts I brought home a pineapple plaque thingie that we nailed to the front brick facade of the Chicago house. No swingers ever came a' knockin' on our door. Apparently it's a very carefully orchestrated thing to arrange a "get together." Ok, once we went to meet a couple out in the far 'burbs and I wore this royal blue wrap dress. When we were greeted at their door of their cute little cookie cutter house, the hostess (lol) said "ohhhh Devil in a Blue Dress!" with delight. I made sure to get us out of there as quickly as possible and threw that dress away when we got home. My ex was so pissed because he had worked so hard for weeks cajoling me into even meeting them. To this day he has no idea how fortunate he is that I stayed as long as I did and never physically assaulted him in his sleep.

Send me the manual in pdf and I'll add the pineapple reference to the appendix and errata pages
 
^ You got it. Should we make this available in an app? Let me know; I'll get my people on it.
 
Proves the saying, "You just never know." I have a friend in the more affluent burbs in the bay area, and she tells me there is a large number of her neighbors that swing. Ehhh. Not for me. But hey, whatev. They like to swing. I like looking at bling. :P2
 
Wow, and I thought Tinder etc replaced swingers long ago......
 
At my age it doesn't swing anymore...:(sad. I'd have crystal pineapples in my curio does that count?....:lol:
