Bottom line: Whether you think it is ok, or think it a sin, that doesn't really matter to me. You mind your business and I'll mind mine. Who the hell cares what OTHER married people are doing? As long as no one is being lied to, and everyone is an adult, it is nobody else's business.

 

What's the big deal?

Mental image of old sitcom show with one guy wearing a barrell on suspenders! Tube top?

 

 

So what about all this "swingers" indulging in adultery? Are we supposed to accept this perversity as a norm?

We don't have to accept anything. It's not up to us, unless a couple engaged in a swinging lifestyle asks for our approval. Then you can tell them how you feel and why.

 

If you consider it a perversion (many do) then what do you want done about it? And by whom? Realistically, what control or input do you, or any of us, have on the various life-styles within the society? We teach our children what we want them to know, explain to the best of our ability and beliefs about what goes on in the world; lobby for changes, vote, etc. Making demands that are impossible accomplishes nothing but raising one's blood pressure.

hokey -

i agree, if you don't like it don't do it. nobody is asking for approval for their choice of lifestyle.

 

friends of mine have an "open" marriage and i suppose at times may have fit into the category of "swingers". they are two of the nicest, sweetest, most decent, do anything for you, kind of people anyone would ever want to meet. i'm not sure if people have these bizarre visions, impressions, or stereotypes of people who swing or not. i know other couples who also fit into that category and, in fact have heard rumors of a section of a neighborhood that is a "very sharing community". but, they don't go out actively and recruit others to share in their lifestyle nor do they ask for community's approval. they don't have to, it's no body else's business.

I don't see anything wrong with it if two people agree to have an open marriage, actually I know a couple who does and they have been married an awful long time and they are very loving couple...

 

And besides It is none of my business what married couples do in the bedroom.

My opinion: Sex does not equal love, but if you love someone, the sex you have will reflect that. What I mean is, if the couple is in love and agrees on the terms, then what's the problem?

What's the big deal? Are the swingers out recruiting like the Army or the Mormons or something?

 

Let's just say that those who do commit adultury are lucky that I'm not the one dishing out the a$$ whoopin's.....how's that for your answer?

 

The swingers aren't out recruiting anyone that I know of, but I personally believe that our society is veering as far away from healthy morals and old fashioned idealism and leaning more towards sex, adultry, and marriage as a contract rather than an institution......oh well, nothing I can do about it huh? (Except let everyone know how I feel about it, then get the holier than thou attitude again, but hey, I'm getting used to it!)

Hmm. Getting the financial and medical benefits of a marriage, and the freedom to live like a single at the same time could be a good package for some people.
