There was a thread running talking about vanillas and having just read the whole thing have decided that personally I dont like the term 'vanillas' - mainly as i dont think its right to label someone boring just because they dont swing - if anyone else agrees agrees maybe we could come up with an alternative....
.....maybe 'pickets' - as in white picket fence???? - ok not very good!!

:shock: That's even worse! It gives the impression of being boring and homely
I can't think of an alternative to vanilla, but may come back to it when I've had a coffee and a think

Shame that, you don't like it, so I guess you're right, it has to change....
Hmm, what about 'vanilla'?
it expresses the feeling, is non-offensive and understood by most.

I haven't always been involved in swinging, and I have had so called 'Vanilla' relationships, and some of those women were far from boring in bed!
Just because someone isn't an exhibitionist or likes lots of other bodies, does not make them dull and predictable.
That is just my opinion
actually i agree....must be ill
all cause someone does not swing does not make them boring in bed

why whats wrong with vanilla?
no matter what word you use it will have the same meaning so why change it?
Wikipedia has an interesting bit on the meaning and use of the word Vanilla in a sexual context.
you can read it here:
although this line of text caught my eye:
Being as the word 'Vanilla' is an etymological cognate to the word "Vagina", the term could also be used to refer to vaginal intercourse
hth

But I like Vanilla!
So why equate it to boring?
i also like vanilla - but the word is unfortunately equated to boring for whatever reason -
I think few people actually think of it as meaning boring.
just someone not into the lifestyle.
I, myself, am as close to vanilla on here as you could get.
I would not consider myself as boring.

I think Vanilla is a great term - it says what it is - Vanilla can be really good - by comparison ....the real vanilla or the plastic squirty type .... but sometimes a persons tastes are a little more adventurous..... Each has its place ... I agree Vanillla for me does not been boring..... sometimes a quality vanilla is better than some flavour... you have to suck it to see.......if you find a good vanilla though not sure if you can lick it...
