Well I think its really up to the individual whether they want to risk going bareback, those who would never even consider it should have nothing to worry about if they are using suitable protection themselves, you’ll probably find the vast majority of people on here have had unprotected sex at some point in there lives and not necessary in the swinging circle but at some point in the past, I know I have and I’m not afraid to admit it, although I wouldn’t consider it in this day and age and wouldn’t recommend going bareback to anyone, its really there choice if they want to take the risks involved, condemning them would just be double standards on my behalf, although it does seem by reading some of the replies on here it’s a big no-no which i suppose is also understandable, then there’s people saying they would never knowingly swing with someone who’s been / goes bareback?? Sorry but how would you know if they didn’t tell you? At the end of the day swinging is risky and the only person you can really trust is yourself, so with that in mind and some of the replies I’ve read on this thread some people should seriously consider this lifestyle…
I hate condoms, they dont feel right and they spoil the moment BUT if i have sex with anyone other than my LTR i ALWAYS wear a condom.
I never seaces to amaze me the number of doggers who come and play with us and dont have a condom. Needless to say they dont get anything.
I play out as a dogger too (with my GF permission, of course) and I always carry and wear condoms.
Some time ago we met a single guy and two couples in a hotel. We arrived with one couple and the other couple and the single were already playing...without condoms. My partner and I just looked at each other, we became a bit weary. When i (the male) was offered a play with the ladies i automatically put a condom on and not a word was said. My girlfriend came and joined in with the other males, one went to shag her without a condom, Dee asked him to put one on and you should have seen the look on his face, you would have thought she had just slapped him. For the rest of the night she was shunned by the males of the party, this was upsetting and quite insulting to us. We felt very uncomfortable, made our excuses and left leaving them to play with each other still without condoms.
There is also a couple that Paul has met a few times dogging, they enjoy gangbangs. On these occasions there has been single guys that fuck her without condoms and with condoms. They never batter an eye lid either way.
Most occasions when we have met couples condoms have been expected to be worn but on one or two occasions it has been suggested that they are not needed. Needless to say we insist in them anyway.
Yes we make our own choices but other people dont always agree with them but you should still be repectful of them.
Just thought I'd chip in here....an issue which might add to the discussion is that many infections aren't instantly recognisable. Chlamydia, in many cases, don't give the male host any indication that he has the infection. No red lights flash, no alarms go off.
GUM clinics are reporting that they are experiencing a lage increase in middle-aged women with quite serious STD's. Far from the 19 year olds returning from Costa Del Crab, disease is far more reaching within the swinging community.
As such we need to be as aware as possible. To those that choose bareback, kudos to you, but it only takes one of you in a group to lie, or have been lied to, and you're all in danger.
