Well, I am back to being single and I like it. Too much drama with a man. I think that it may be best for me right now to keep it that way. I can always find a guy when I need one, like when I need a tire changed or something off the top shelf.
I have moved in with one of my girlfriends and she has been talking about going to a "swingers club" for a long time. Last night we finally went. It was not what either of us expected.
Here we were, two single girls, and all of these couples around (they don't allow single men on Saturday night). There were some other single women there but they seemed to be connected to a couple. I found out they call that "a pair and a spare". Funny way to put it.
Anyway, we had to bring our own drinks and give the bottle to a bartender as soon as we came in. We just sat at the bar for a long time drinking and we talked to a few really nice people. No one was pushy or even suggestive just normal friendly conversation.
Now my friend, I'll call her Katie, hasn't experienced as much as me when it comes to sex but she seemed eager to try something new when we had decided to go to this club. She finally got into a conversation with a woman sitting next to her at the bar, part of a couple. They were talking and laughing so I decided to just take a walk around the club to see what was going on.
There were lots of different rooms off of the main area so I picked one and went in. It was a video room. There was a big TV screen with some porn flick playing. I stood and watched for a minute but as porn movies go this was pretty predictable so I moved on to a hallway that had more rooms off to the side. In the first room the whole floor was mattresses and there were three couples in there all having sex. I watched for a while but got curious about the other rooms so I moved on to the next one off that hallway. In that room was a really young couple going at it while two couples were standing around watching. Still not a big excitement for me so I made my way back to the bar.
When I got there my friend was no where to be seen and her drink was gone. The woman she had been talking to and her husband were gone too. Wow. My first thought was that Katie had scored. I had the bartender fix me another drink and I sat there at the bar. A guy came up and asked me to join him and his wife on the dance floor but I told him I was waiting for my friend. I don't know why I was so shy. That is sure not me but I was having fun watching the people dance. I guess there is a little bit of a voyeur in me as well as the exhibitionist. I was watching women taking off their tops and dancing, couples all dancing together, couples leaving the dance floor together, it was fun so I had another drink.
Then I got a little curious about my friend so I got up and walked, I mean staggered, into the other section of the club. There was another room with lots of beds and more people in various states of undress having sex, another room with the door closed, a shower area, a room with big windows so you could look in and a lot of bondage stuff and whips. A girl was in there wearing a blindfold and tied up being whipped. That looked like fun.
The last room down that hall was a small room and it was totally dark. I went in and it took a while for my eyes to adjust. There was a couch and a chair in there and no one was around. On one wall of that room was another window and you could see into a room I that looked new to me. I had not seen that one in my travels. It was a large room with blue lights all around the edge and lots of mattresses and there were only three people in there, a man and two women one with black hair. All three were totally nude and one woman was laying on her back and the woman with the black hair was kissing her and playing with her breasts while the man was slowly stroking his penis in and out of her. I thought to myself, this is why the "pair" brings a "spare". Then the man obviously came, I couldn't hear anything through the window but he gave that "shutter" that guys do when they come ( I know that well) and then pulled out of the woman who was on her back. The one on her back started to get up but the black haired woman pushed her back down and then moved down to her crotch. Then I could see the woman on her back. It was Katie! There was no mistaking that long red hair.
Just about then a couple came in to my room. They started making out on the couch behind me. I was mesmerized watching Katie. They woman must have been doing something right because she kept laying there and started slightly moving her hips. This was a side of Katie I didn't know about.
Then the guy from the couple in my room asked me if I would like to join them on the couch. He introduced me to his wife and was very polite. They explained that they liked to come to this club about once a month just to get away from their everyday lives. I told them that I was just there to see what it was all about and thanked them for their offer but that I just wanted to watch the other room for a while. They were very polite and I turned my back on them and looked back at Katie. She was obviously cumming big time, holding the woman's head and arching her back. Then I couldn't believe it. She got up on her knees and started kissing the black haired woman and guided her down on the bed and proceeded to return the favor. I had no idea Katie was bi. I guess I wasn't the only one holding back when we talked about of sexual experience.
I couldn't stand it anymore. I turned around and started to leave. The couple in my room were having sex but I just walked around them and made my way back to the bar. I asked the bartender how to get to the room with the blue lights and he said to go across the dance floor into the room with the lockers. He said that I would have to leave my cloths in one of the lockers because no clothes were allowed in the blue light room. I finally had an excuse to get my clothes off. Yeah!
First I had to go to the restroom again and wait for the line. While I was in line there were three other women without any clothes on waiting with me so I just took off my clothes while I was peeing and then I got another drink to take with me to the blue light room and put my clothes in a locker and went in. I could see real well in the blue light room and by the time I got there Katie was back on bottom, the black haired woman was kissing her again and the may was having intercourse with her again. I just crawled over the mattresses toward them and Katie saw me. She motioned for me to come on over so I did. I started rubbing the man's back and then whispered a little proposition in his ear. If he would pull out of Katie and let me eat her He could fuck me from behind. It made a "shwoop" sound he pulled out so fast. I got on my knees and started enjoying my friend while this very thoughtful man put on a fresh condom and then slowly fucking my pussy like a pro. I was well lubricated already, in fact I was soaked from all the excitement.
The man came in me quickly but another couple had come in to the room and I looked up from Katie long enough to motion for them to come over and the guy immediately got right in position and began fucking me. Strangely, I felt his wife's hand guiding him into me. Really hot!
I made Katie cum and the guy was still fucking me so I made her cum again. Then she ate me until I thought the top of my head was going to explode while one of those guys, or maybe both of them, I don't know, I was a little distracted, fucked her and the two wives were taking turns kissing me and playing with my nipples and I was playing with all three breasts. I all became a blur. I think the men from at least two more couples fucked me but the women must have just enjoyed watching. I saw three women just standing, naked, by the door and I know that two guys I hadn't seen earlier fucked me and I saw one different guy fucking Katie. Finally I guess nobody could cum any more so we got up. There was Katie covered in sweat and both male and female cum (one of the guys pulled out and came on her breasts).
We went into the locker room and Katie started to get her clothes. Up until now we had not said a word to each other since we were sitting at the bar. I just grabbed her hand a couple of towels and led her through the bar to the shower room. We both took a shower, wrapped up in the towels and I led back to the bar. Still we had not said a word. I asked the bartender to fix us some drinks, a double for me and a triple or quadriple for my friend. He thought that was funny. We sat there and still Katie didn't say a word but she downed that drink in one gulp. I had let my towel fall off so Katie just stood up and took her towel off and put it on the bar stool and sat back down and asked for another drink.
They were closing so the music had stopped and the DJ came over to the bar next to Katie and ordered a drink. He started talking about how it looked like everyone had really enjoyed themselves and it was too bad he had to work all night because it looked like it was a really good night. BANG! Katie was kissing him then grabbed his hand and my hand and, to make a long story short, we tagged teamed to guy in the video room, got him off and was back in the shower when the manager told us we had to leave so he could lock up and go home. I whispered in Katie's ear "You want to give him a reason to stay for a while?" just kidding because I was worn out but she thought I was serious and looked at me and said the first words she had spoken for hours "No, I'm too tired. Lets just go home and go to bed." and that is what we did.
I woke up this morning, or should I say this afternoon, with Katie still asleep next to me. This is a whole new adventure in our relationship. I got up, fixed coffee and a hangover pitcher of bloody marys and tried to get my head clear to write this down while it was still fresh in my mind. Katie came in a minute ago so I closed the computer so she couldn't see what I was writing. Her hangover is really bad but the bloody mary msut have helped. She took it into the bathroom with her. She still hasn't said a word, not on the cab ride home or before we went to bed. She just followed me into my room, took all her clothes back off and climbed into bed with me last night.
I had better post this I just heard the toilet flush. I'm going o wait for her to bring up last night.

Interesting about the Eskimos. I guess I should say "Welcome to the GB club" if that is not too crass. I'd like to know how things have gone with your husband's friends since then. Please let us know.

24fun: I just read your blog. According to your numbers there were 17 plus the manager and another guy and your "hubby" 3 times. That looks like 22 to me. we're tied if you haven't done more since then. I just went to my first swingers club but there weren't any single guys around. I guess you went to a club that had a lot of single guys. I want to try that sometime. When there are a bunch of single guys around has your husband ever had to step in and stop somebody from doing something you didn't want? I am really curious about that because I won't be taking a guy along to keep things from getting out of hand. Yes I did need to pee really bad. I peed the bed but it didn't seem to bother the guys. The worst part was getting so thirsty I asked for water a couple of times. I even drank one glass while a guy was pounding me from behind. That probably looked funny and it was not an easy thing to do. | | ---------------------------------------From: CouCou On: 03-07-2010 To CouCou Re: "Special Valentine Gift from BF: Breaking my record"
smarty: Yes it was a real turn on but make sure your guy is in to it. Maybe drop some hints and see if he likes the idea. | | ---------------------------------------From: CouCou On: 03-07-2010 To CouCou Re: "BF out. GF in and first swingers club 4 me"
OK I'll make this quick. Drama queen Katie didn't say hardly anything for a long time tonight. She just moped around complaining about her hangover. I'm not that way. I at least wanted to like "wasn't that fun?" or "that third guy really had a big one." something. So I broke he ice after she had her 3rd bloody mary. I said well did you have as much fun as I did last night? And she said she enjoyed it. A real short answer and no eye contact. So I started telling her about wha I had seen walking around the club. She jsut nodded her head and still wound't even look at me. Then I told her I didn't want this to screw up our relationship and I hoped we were still friends. Then she started talking and it was the old Katie. Normally you can't shut her up. She stared talking about how she had fooled around with a girl in college a little but she wasn't really into women only and really liked guys.
Big sigh of relief! I said me too that I enjoy both but "I need some dick around to make it fun." She just laughed and said me too. I didn't tell her that what I liked was putting on a show for the guys. So we are agreed. We like each other and didn't rule out the ocational back rub but we both like men too. Good thing now we'll see how it goes. I think I'm going to suggest that if we go back to the swingers club we go on Friday when they have single guys there along with the couples. I wonder how she would react to that? (I wonder what she would think of me if I told her about my "record"?) Maybe I'll just go by myself. Naw, even I am not that wild but if she ever mentions it again I'll sugest Friday I really like nameless, nsa, sex. I've had enough of relationships for a while.

News: Duncanville files countersuit over swingers club Saturday, January 19 @ 04:00:00 EST by Editor (1156 reads) | Duncanville files countersuit over swingers club Dallas News, TX By ELIZABETH LANGTON / The Dallas Morning News elangton@dallasnews.com
| The city of Duncanville wants a judge to declare the Cherry Pit swingers club a public nuisance and close it down.
Jim Trulock, who runs the club in his home, sued the city Dec. 12 over a new ordinance that bans sex clubs. Duncanville filed its answer Monday and countersued Mr. Trulock.

Duncanville files countersuit over swingers club |
On weekends, the 59-year-old and his partner, 29-year-old Julie M. Norris, turn their home near Cedar Ridge Drive and Interstate 20 into the Cherry Pit, where guests can mingle, dance and have sex.
The City Council unanimously adopted the ordinance in November. City officials say they were acting in response to complaints about the Cherry Pit.
The ordinance classifies sex clubs as a public nuisance. City officials also contend that the Cherry Pit is an unlicensed sexually oriented business operating in a residential area. Mr. Trulock denies that the club is a business; he has said he accepted donations but didn't have a cover charge.
Mr. Trulock's "use of the premises as a sex club is detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the city of Duncanville," the city's filing says. Mr. Trulock "does not have any policy or measures in place to safeguard against the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, and thus the activities at the premises pose a risk to the public health."
Mr. Trulock's attorney, Ed Klein, said the city is trying to regulate private acts in a private home. The ordinance violates his client's privacy and due process rights, he said.
Mr. Klein also contends that the ordinance is so broad and vague that it could criminalize the sexual behavior of almost everyone in Duncanville. The city's countersuit asks that the court order the Cherry Pit to ...

News: We're not swingers ... but you can watch Thursday, January 17 @ 05:11:03 EST by Editor (1387 reads) | We're not swingers ... but you can watch Brisbane Times, Australia By Georgia Waters
WOOLLOONGABBA: The owners of an "adult nightclub" at Woolloongabba have hit back at news reports referring to them as a "swingers' club". Owners Bryan and Leesa Horn have submitted an application with the Brisbane City Council to operate their sex-on-premises club, Couples International.
|
Photo: Quest News |
"We're very happy with our relationship with the council; and it was council who decided to use the word 'nightclub' for the venue," Mr Horn said.
Mr Horn said the couple was working to dissolve the "mythical stereotype" that surrounded the idea of a sex-on-premises club.
The club is designed like a regular nightclub, with a dance floor and bar, but with separate rooms that couples can use to participate in sex, he said.
It is housed in a converted tile showroom, not a garage, as has been reported.
Strict rules apply to all visitors to the club, he said, with any rule-breakers removed immediately and not allowed to return.
"The focus of the club is somewhere adults can go to be adult," Mr Horn said.
"Of the people that come, 15-20 per cent do 'play' (have sex) there - most of our visitors come and have a look and have a chat and go home," he said.
Mr Horn described some of the club's visitors as "small-s swingers".
Couples can invite another visitor to join them, or swap partners, but only when one party issues an invitation and the ...

Swingers: sex fiends or liberated lovers? Thursday, May 31 @ 12:26:44 EDT by Editor (1581 reads) | Swingers: sex fiends or liberated lovers? Brisbane Times, AU By Katherine "CityKat" Feeney
Voyeurism, exhibitionism, 'the lifestyle' and the good ol' gang-bang |
| Welcome to the wonderful world of Brisbane Swingers; a community of broadminded, sexually secure and very sociable folk, happily flourishing between the sheets of Brisbanetown.
But how happy are we as a city to play host to such raunchy house parties? And more to the point, are swingers really satisfied?
|  Photo: Brisbane Times As a part-time fashion model and a weekend hostess and promotions assistant for one of Brisbane's swanky riverside bars, Katherine "CityKat" Feeney knows what what works - and what doesn't - when it comes to attracting the opposite sex. Whether it's finding out what a woman really wants from her man; or showcasing the best spots for the perfect date, Kate's blog will tell you everything you need to know about Brisbane's dating scene. |
Well, the swinging phenomenon is hardly new. From the orgytastic ancient Romans to the polygamous shenanigans indulged in by the playmates at the House that Heffner built, seems we've been keen to bed partners other than our own for centuries.
Many folk who enjoy the swinging life claim the indulgence stimulates their couple time and enhances their relationship. Some women find swinging liberating in a society that suppresses female sexuality. And there are those who simply enjoy the thrill of going nude for a night.
No longer the dubious wife-swapping of the 1950s, the modern, popular and very legal swingers venues, such as the notorious Mike's Place in the city, offer live entertainment, finger food, bar facilities, a masseuse and room full of folk looking to spice up their sex lives ... for a small fee, of course.
They even throw in condoms and lube; a consideration you'd be unlikely to enjoy should you shag a stranger picked up at a pub in the city or the Val of a weekend.
As such, fly you solo or partnered - if getting your groove on is the goal - seems that these swingers house parties offer real value for money. Entry isn't restricted to the married sort. Couples of all kinds and singles of the straight or bi-sexual persuasion are welcome. However, stricter admittance rules and higher entry fees apply to the solo male. A discriminatory measure perhaps? An interesting point nonetheless.
Yet swingers clubs remain a much hushed, recreational-sex subculture, largely ignored by Brisbane society because most of us have our reservations as to the morality of the practice and fear of the stigma attached.
The thought of your partner bonking someone else even with your permission spells the beginning of the end to many of us in relationships because it raises all those difficult questions about fidelity and the strength of your commitment.
Is there greater trust demonstrated by a partner willing to let their better half explore their sexuality openly, confident that their love shall conquer all? Or is it foolish to think that sex with strangers comes with no strings attached?
Regardless of where you stand on this spectrum, if you're thinking about having a swing at the swingers' life, think carefully about your motivation. Honest communication and self awareness is the key and, for crying out loud, don't do anything you don't really want to do.

News: Swinger: Notion of 'orgies' singles him out for code action Friday, January 19 @ 04:00:00 EST by Editor (1475 reads) | Swinger: Notion of 'orgies' singles him out for code action Daytona Beach News-Journal, FL By AUDREY PARENTE Staff Writer
HOLLY HILL -- One person's sexual bliss is another's angst when it comes to a six-bedroom house overlooking the Halifax River. Neighbors complained to Holly Hill officials about parties in this leased house on Riverside Drive. |
Matthew Early says he has been harassed and his personal rights infringed upon by neighbors who complained to City Hall that he illegally hosted swingers' parties in a leased house on Riverside Drive. The issue could be settled Wednesday during a 2 p.m. hearing before Special Magistrate Charles Cino of Flagler County at City Hall. After a Nov. 1 code citation for operating a business without a license, Early says he tried to cooperate by not collecting money from dozens of guests who came to his parties. Some guests came via a Web site advertising Never Ending Bliss. Early says he removed any mention of money from the Web site, but on Dec. 15, a second cease-and-desist order stated that Early's intent was "to operate a private club." Early says he now lives at the Riverside address with his partner, Nikki, and her children but only has a few friends over -- no large parties -- when the children are away. He is looking for a new location, he says. "They say my whole intention was to run a business," Early says. "It's not. We don't charge at the door and they are house parties. The big thing is, they are calling us a club, but nobody pays dues. It's just semantics." Early says he has done nothing wrong but "can name houses that have chess clubs and bridge clubs." "There are houses in this neighborhood that run manufacturing businesses out of their homes, yet people are complaining about us," Early says. "People have the notion that everybody (at the parties) is naked and having orgies." The Web site no longer advertises a club but has a message from Early saying ...

News: Weirton Officials Say Alternative B & B Violates Code Thursday, January 18 @ 04:00:00 EST by Editor (1364 reads) | Weirton Officials Say Alternative B & B Violates Code WTOV9.com, OH
Weirton officials said a local bed and breakfast that caters to alternative lifestyles is violating a city code. Rosemont Manor, also known as Our House on the Hill, caters to fetish parties, swingers, nudists, and S&M lifestyles.
Because of the activities, city officials said they notified owner Rose Susko in early December that she was violating city code.
In a written notice to Susko dated Dec. 11, Weirton's UDO administrator Jim McHenry said, "Your permit was approved for a Bed and Breakfast/ Wedding and Reception facility....any additional uses must be likewise approved by this office. Since, no application for expanded use has been made...this is a violation of the City of Weirton, Unified Development Ordinance."
In November, Susko defended her business and said it does not pose a threat to residents on Marland Heights.
"There's not anything out of the ordinary going on here -- maybe a little more not-quite mainstream topics -- but there's nothing illegal going ...

News: Man Fights To Keep 'Swingers' Home Open Wednesday, January 17 @ 19:52:24 EST by Editor (1430 reads) | Man Fights To Keep 'Swingers' Home Open Local6.com, FL
A house in Holly Hill, Fla., that was transformed into an adult swingers' club remains at the center of a controversy even though neighbors got the city to temporarily close it.
The Neverending Bliss Swinger's Club was operated out of the Holly Hill home that accommodates 20 couples and features a dancing pole in the living room.
Club owner Matthew Early told Local 6 News that he is proud to be a swinger and he is fighting to do it.
"It is not about the sex," Early said. "It is about the people. I am doing nothing illegal. I have no complaints, no police calls. We are having parties."
"Those parties have been the topic of conversation on the Internet, in Holly Hill and now at City Hall," Local 6's Louis Bolden said.
"It has nothing to do with the type of business being operated," Holly Hill City Manager Joe Forte said. "It is just the fact that it is a club. It can be any type of club. They are not permitted in residential zoning."
The city has notified Early to stop having the parties until a special magistrate makes a ruling.
On Wednesday, a special magistrate reviewing the case did not make a ruling in the case, saying he needed more time to review the evidence.
Early said there is sexual activity at the parties but it is all legal, Bolden reported.
"I don't understand how it could be possibly be legal to have that sort of thing in a quiet, residential neighborhood," a homeowner said.
"I will fight for the lifestyle," Early said. "This has nothing to do with money. This has nothing to do with anything. It has to do with the lifestyle."
City officials said they will write an ordinance that prohibits swinger's clubs, Bolden said.

News: The Business of Swing Friday, December 08 @ 18:51:38 EST by Editor (1412 reads) | The Business of Swing ABC News - USA By JOHN BERMAN and ROXANNA SHERWOOD
Couples Enjoying the Swinger Lifestyle Attend a New Resort to Live Out Their Fantasies
From the outside, the resort looks just like any other along the sun-soaked beaches of Los Cabos, Mexico: pools and bars and volleyball. But before long, it's easy to see signs that this place is different.
In the gift shop, not far from the sun block, were boxes of Viagra.
Get the Full Story: Watch "Nightline" Tonight, Dec. 8, 2006, on ABC.
Outside by the pool were big red beds, draped with wispy curtains. And these beds were not for tanning. It was very quickly clear that at this clothing-optional resort, most enjoyed that option. Nudity was the norm. After all, this was Desire, the second-best-known "swingers" resort on the planet.
|  Vacationers are known to have open sex on the poolside daybeds scattered around the Desire swingers resort. (ABC )

Swinging is when husbands and wives, or boyfriends and girlfriends, swap partners with other couples and sleep with people who are not their husbands and wives, or boyfriends or girlfriends. And Desire is just the latest example of entrepreneurs cashing in on what they see as a growing lifestyle and, as a result, a lucrative business opportunity.
Robert McGinley, the 72-year-old founder and CEO of Lifestyles Organization, the world's leading company devoted to "swinging," believes that one specific element makes swingers resorts successful.
"Freedom — freedom of expression, freedom to be what you want to be, freedom to be stark naked nude next to someone, and they don't care," he said.
"They want to be able to, if they're, say, here in the Jacuzzi or in the disco dance, and get turned on by another couple, those two couples want to be able to go someplace like this bed that I'm sitting on right here and take it a step further — sexual exploration."
You can call it wife-swapping, call it creepy — call it what you like, but it appears that the business of swing is booming.
Banking on a Demand for Something Different
The Desire Resort opened under the pretense that McGinley's travel agency would fill the hotel 365 days a year with guests eager for Desire's special amenities, like the outdoor beds, or as they're called at the resort, "designated play areas."
McGinley agrees that these are ...

Get out the Pitchforks and Torches Sunday, September 10 @ 04:00:00 EDT by Editor (1376 reads) |
According to the Allentown Morning Call, Allentown, PA, the local city council has decided that it is illegal for a group of couples to assemble in a local club for a social get together because they are swingers.
According to the article published Saturday, Club Kama Sutra held its first $60-per-couple party at Silhouette Showbar, 111
E. Station Ave., last week and had scheduled another, titled ''Back to School,''
for last night but Coopersburg officials employed a distinctly unsexy tactic - zoning laws.

Complaints were received from the community. Will this scene be next?

''If they open up Saturday night [for a private party] they'll be cited,''
Borough Manager Dan Stonehouse said Friday. ''They can apply for a permit, but
it would be denied, because members-only clubs are not allowed in that zoning
district.''
The party last week attracted only a handful of people, plus officers from the
state police liquor control enforcement bureau who conducted an inspection after
receiving complaints from the community. They ordered Silhouette's to be closed
after discovering its health permit was invalid; a health inspection was
scheduled for Friday evening, and the facility was expected to be open
tonight.
The borough chose a typical road in dealing with the club, said
Mary McNeill, a municipal law attorney from New York who compiled a swing club
case law study for the advocacy group Morality in Media. Communities that want
to shut down such businesses generally resort to old-fashioned regulatory tools,
particularly health, nuisance and zoning laws.
''For the most part, the
law essentially holds swing clubs can be regulated provided they fall under the
category of being a business,'' she said.
''It's fine if you get together
with your friends and do whatever you want — that's private people doing private
things. However, if you open a club essentially to strangers and have a
membership and charge people money to enter, that becomes a business. And
businesses can be regulated by municipalities in terms of
licensing.''
She cited Phoenix as the best example of a city crafting a
legally watertight law against swing clubs. The law, adopted in 1998 with the
aim of preventing the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, says any business
falling under the category of a ''live sex act business'' is automatically
considered a nuisance. The city does not have to prove the club is a nuisance;
it simply has to prove the activity is taking place.
By defining the
activities that would qualify as live sex acts — and by exempting plays, ballet
and other non-obscene performances — Phoenix created a law that eliminated the
clubs from city limits and passed muster in the courts, McNeill
said.
Residents of Coopersburg were appalled that the strip club — itself
a bone of contention in the little borough — had agreed to book sex
parties.
Steve DiDonato, the restaurateur who owns the Abruzzi on Main
and tipped officials to the swing club plan after representatives of Club Kama
Sutra offered to buy his business, said he kept a curious eye on the club during
its debut party last week.
''The most cars they had in the parking lot
was eight, and that was at 11 o'clock,'' he said. ''It's almost comical, but the
thing that gets me is that the place is so skeevy. It really is a disgusting
place.''

'Lifestyle' -- Real-Life Wife Swaps ABC
News
On the hit ABC show "Desperate Housewives," cheating destroys marriages because
spouses lie and get caught.
But we found couples who say they have found a way to enjoy the company of
others without the deception. It's called the "lifestyle," or swinging, an
arrangement in which couples have sex with other couples, and there is no
secrecy. |

These couples say participating in "swinging" parties, where they sometimes swap sexual partners, strengthens their marriages. (ABC News)

Brian and Olga Depenbrock got married four years ago. Now they run a business
together, and after work they like to go to a club in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.,
called Trapeze, which also has branches in Atlanta and Philadelphia.Trapeze
looks like other nightclubs, with a dance floor, buffet, bar.
But it's not like other clubs, because in back there's a locker room where
couples can get undressed and, if they want, have sex in different bedrooms with
other couples — or watch one another in hot tubs. It's called swinging or the
"lifestyle."
Isn't it immoral? Four couples I talked to said no, it's a good thing.
"What we do is not illegal. And I don't believe it's immoral," said
Brian.
Chris, who takes part in the lifestyle with his wife, Lavonne, said, "I don't
want to be 85 years old, looking back on my life, like, 'Man, I didn't have
enough sex in my life.' " Like most of the couples we talked to, Chris and
Lavonne didn't want their last names used.
Another swinging couple, Bob and Tess, were college sweethearts. They've been
married 19 years, and five years into their marriage they decided to try the
lifestyle.
"Tess was the first woman I ever kissed in my whole life. So you always have
an innate curiosity about 'How would another woman feel?' I no longer have that
curiosity," Bob said.
Swinging was Tess' idea. She heard about it from a girlfriend and was
intrigued. She figured their relationship was strong enough to give swinging a
try. "You have to be completely open and honest with each other," she said.
Won't they look back at their lives and feel that ...
