Hello,
Just a topic for discussion really! Given the seemingly endless amount of single guys wanting quick sex with single girls (in the ad section in particular), does this count as "Swinging"?
Surely the point of swinging is for couples to extend there sex lives, with either another couple, or single guys and girls.
But single blokes meeting single girls (or other single blokes for that matter!) is just, well, sex isn't it?

So if a couple swing what does the single invited to the 'marital' bedroom do?

I covered that - see above!
I don't mean people who have fun with other couples - i just mean people who have fun with other singles!
For example, an ad that says "guy wants c*ck sucked by fem tonight" or "girl wants seeing to by sexy man".
I just can't see how that type of ad fits into a swinging category!
A single invited by a couple for a threesome is quite obviously swinging of course!!!

lol i'm sure people just read what they wanna read!!! lol
Is the bedtime story "Goldilocks" cuz thats my fave!!! biggrin
I'm not a swinger either then because I only advertise for single men.
However, if I met a single man from my advert we might go and meet people together.... so then I'd actually be a swinger instead of just looking for a quick shag and that'd be ok rolleyes
Why does swinging have to be a number game? After what number does it become an orgy? If you sleep with two people on seperate nights are you a swinger? No. If you live the life style and have a different partner every 6 months is that swinging?
I think it is more down to an attitude of sex and what its about. Its taken from the closed door bedroom senario to a openness and honesty, away from the dirty to the fun...
Unless you like it that way lol :lol: :lol:

Ah i see! Then you found an exception! If it was a crime it'd be "possession with the intent to swing" lol.
Still i think the term "Adult Dating" applies more than "Swinging" if theres no intent to swing with the partner you initially met throught "Adult Dating"....
Ultimately though, who cares, i just wanted to see what other people thought!!!
Viva single men and women everywhere - you bring pleasure were it is needed! biggrin

I think "Swinging" in the original sense of the term IS a number game because it implies "wife swapping".
However, the modern etymology of "Swinging" could be to include "events involving those who are sexually liberal".
But surely every human on the planet with very few exceptions would like to have sex with other people, so by extending the term "swingers" to include people who just like to have sex with other single people would mean that absolutely everyone on the planet is a "swinger"!
Again, i'll stress that i'm not criticising in any way - i just think myself that it shouldn't be deemed "swinging"; but should be more along the lines of "NSA Sex between singles".
There should be a new term for it - "Singling"!!!!
I think your probably right, single meets single = casual sex , well thats how i see it, not that theres anything wrong in that of course, but i think swinging means different things to different people,wether it be couples meeting singles, couples meeting couples, or singles meeting singles, as long as we`re non judgemental about how different people see it , and want out of the lifestyle, then all should be fine.
Unfortunately, too many people are a bit too quick to judge others, if it isnt their" thing" confused
Totally understand where you are coming from biggrin
Sometimes it is easier for singles to meet others in this way, maybe they are shy or unable to trawl the town centre pubs, due to lack of funding etc. Whichever way people meet and however it is perceived, either "swinging" or "tarting" or just getting a shag, who cares as long as they are safe and not hurting others

10/10 answer! :D
And "Tarting" is a WAY better term than "Singling"!
All Tarters and Swingers should live in harmony! Be free! Flower Power!!!
Ohh man i'm so high... lol!
To be honest.... I think this comment.....
"Surely the point of swinging is for couples to extend there sex lives, with either another couple, or single guys and girls"......... Is a pretty shitty thing to say!!!!
Why should cpls.... who quite possibly are "looking for a quick sex" be treated any different from Single's who maybe be looking for the same??? I've seen many cpl in chatrooms advertising and looking for cpls or single's for the same day...
Is that not "quick sex"???

It does kinda imply that you see singles looking for sex here as being in the wrong place though. I choose not to meet couples from my ad because there are too many permutations to consider. Will I fancy her, will I fancy him, will either or both of them fancy me? I prefer to decide who I want to swing with (couples wise) from meeting people at social events. Furthermore, most of the single males I meet, although I insist on a social first, I usually end up going to swinging clubs with. I still fail to see how this makes me any less of a swinger than you just because I don't have a regular partner.
And quite frankly, it pisses me off when I'm made to feel like a second class citizen of the site when couples infer that I shouldn't be here if I'm only looking to meet other singles evil
I'm enjoying the discussion - especially as at the moment, we're still working through what exactly it is we're looking for in all this (and why).
Lots of strong feelings...I recognise in me that I feel uncomfortable talking about what Mick and me are seeking as 'swinging' - what's that about then? Images of Cynthia Payne and suburban sex parties...but then, why not?

Of course it's quick sex - but its also "quick swinging"!
So i stick with what i think "Swinging" is because it IS, in the strictest sense of the word, involving couples!
But seriously - and please read this - i'm not saying that singles aren't welcome on the site or are "second class"; on the contrary! The site is obviously a sexual forum for those who enjoy sex, no matter whether single or with partners, young and old, married or sweethearts!
All I am saying is that those who are single seeking single people aren't "swingers" if you were to put things into categories - it's just quick sexy fun!
I am in absolutely no way at all having a go at the singles on the site at all!!!
Swinging is predominately relationship based. In that a couple who have an existing long term relationship introduce extra-relationship sexual encounters, with either singles or other couples.
Otherwise its no different from multiple partnering either sequentially or consecutively.
Forgive me if I ramble on, but (theres always a but) I rememebr not very well, there are something like four stages of humanity. Evolution of the human kind. First stage is living together as in towns and villages actually working together. The nesx is procreation so you name and bloodline carry on. an imortallity type of thing. This is where most anthropologists think we are now.
Stage three is sex not just to procreate but for fun. Are we the next evolution of the species? Is it just that the rest of the world havnt caught on?
Oh and it was never looked on as a critisism but an interesting debate on life or at least our lives... lol
I have to agree with angel.... coz it pisses me off too...
From what i see your trying to say 3suminpreston is that you think "swinging" or "adult dating" as u called it is only ok for Cpls.... But as soon as you want a single to join you... then its ok..

Wow... That is astonishingly well put!
That pretty much sums it up for me! :shock:

No not at all! I can't see were you get that from!!!
All i'm saying is that those singles who have fun with singles (and by all means thats great and more than welcome on the site) are not "Swingers", but just people who are meeting for mutual sex, or social meets of course.
I don't see the site as "For Swingers Only" - to quote what i said earlier, i see it as a forum for those who are sexually liberated.
I said "IF" you were to categorise, what would constitute a "Swinger"?!
I haven't said anything negative at all!!!
Well personally we don't give a kippers dick what it's called, or who does it............ just get on and enjoy it :grin:

Bollocks!!!!
If i want "just quick sexy fun".... then i would just go out in blackpool which ever time I may want it and "pick" somebody up!!!!
But no.... i don't... I spend time getting to know people... Via the chatroom and go out of my way, when i can to attend munches.
The term "Swinging" apply's to anybody in my eyes... whether your single or a cpl smile
Just my view

Grrrrrrr not only are you contradicting yourself, you're digging a :censored: hole. Why put the post up in the first place when you yourself have said that you'll play with a single male. Is he not a swinger? Or is he classed as a swinger, despite being single, because he'll be playing with a couple?
And what the :censored: is wrong with quick sexy fun anyway? ffs this is meant to be an open minded site for people who enjoy (and I quote from here ) "Recreational sex between consenting adults"
Stop making such a big deal about who's worthy of the "swinger" label and who isn't and go and have a shag mad :x :x
Angel.....WE'RE single.... WE arn't swingers rolleyes
Ooops thanks for the reminder Lilmiss. So what about that thing we have arranged in a couple of weeks with that single bloke? Oh yeah, I remember, thats just "quick sexy fun" rolleyes :roll:
So a single person when meeting another single person is not a swinger unless they are going with more than one person.
Therefore, me being married and meeting a single person, with my wifes permission, is not swinging either.
