OK so I know ita an oldie but its a goodie biggrin
How do people feel about this? I personally believe that swinging is about more than 2 having/sharing sex.
A single can be brought into a couples, or a couple of peoples or mores, sex lives and he/she would be swinging. If a single has sex with another single then thats just scoring :D isn't it?
I'm single and if I meet another single on here, I still class it as swinging and why not? dunno
I bloody hope so :-(
definitely can and do. I am in a couple but I swing as both a single and as a couple.
In my now vast experience lol I truly believe that swinging is a state of mind rather than a physical act. Some people can a lot more can't.
i would hope its not as a swingle here myself and as i meet other single people on here i still class it as swinging
also when 2 singles meet to couple up to go swinging together there also still single just mutual fun
i would state scoreing with a single more of a term for the vannila side
my opinion is that if singles get together for play its generally perceived that its a 1 night stand and is treated as such even if its a regular thing (no emotional involvement) this in a vanilla world is frowned upon and the female is called all sorts of unpleasant names. in a swinging environment then it is warmly welcomed and encouraged.
as a couple we have played with both couples and singles with no expectation other than to have fun be it physical or just social. swinging is a lifestyle choice and can be enjoyed by anyone who has the right frame of mind and has the respect that goes along with it.
i couldn't swing with my partner if i didn't fully trust that they had a similar outlook and perception of how i see swinging.
another question
can a married/attached person be classed as a swinger when their partner does not know they swing ..... in my opinion they are cheats not swingers. i sympathise that they do not have a partner that sees swinging as acceptable but is it still classed as swinging or cheating
If they meet couples and groups then yes, if they just meet 1-2-1 and have no intension of ever meeting couples or groups we'd say thats just casual sex, just our opinion mind.
why still use the tile "swinger" when it has so many old and outmoded attachments in society? ... and apparently so many rules and opinions as to what is correct when there are so many posibilities?
why not just be "liberated" and do what you choose within your own perametres?

I've thought aout this a fair bit and I think there is a difference between a single person in the swinging scene and a single person having one night stands with (often) strangers.
And it's all to do with attitude. I think a swinger generally has a much more relaxed attittude to sex as a pass-time. Not going out 'hunting' for sex, but making arrangements and thinking about it on a more (dare I say?) adult level. And not going out on the town pretending to be clubbing with mates when they are actually looking for a random shag. Even in Chams etc, they are there for the purpose of sex (usually) and are quite open about it.
I think the difference between a single that is in the life and a swinging couple if far smaller than between them and a one-night-stander.
Oh, and I reckon us swingers are generally and darned sight fussier about who we shag too.

' Can singles be swingers? '

I guess it easier to think of singles as animated sex toys rather than other swingers is that right do you think? biggrin

Of course we can... us single blokes are good at swingin our knobs! :twisted:
I've come to the conclusion that you have to be half of a couple to be a swinger.
Also, that you're not a swinger if you're the only one sleeping with other people.

I guess you could say that although as long as you don't mind if that is how they see you both, I guess thats fine. :P
I personally would not want to be seen as a sex toy, but maybe that is how I am seen. I would like to think I am seen as a human with passion, excitement and fun to be around and with, as that is how I have seen the men we have met. wink

Not sure I agree with either of those statements. I'm single and I consider myself to be a swinger as opposed to someone just sleeping with different people.
I know couples where only one partner plays so I don't see them as any less of a swinger than if they were both involved.
I would say those who only play with one person and no one else can't call themselves swingers. That to me is just friends with benefits

Depends on who you talk to really.
If a single mingles with a swinger does swinging whilst mingling with swingers make the single a mingling swinger or a swinger mingling as a single or would they be a single mingling swinger?
