Do you think we will see a boom of new swingers once COVID is over

[Pklon 62]

Not sure what the USA scene is like and the rest of the world is like since I am from Canada (Quebec) and the swinger clubs are still close as of June 15 2021.

 

With several topics that I have seen since the start of COVID I seen a few people wishing to become swingers. For places that are open has anyone noticed any new swingers more then usual?

 

I believe once  the clubs in Canada start to begin to open, I think I will see a boom of new swingers

With no empirical data to base this on I am guessing that while there will be an influx of new faces it will not be much greater than the number of faces that would have shown up in the last year in in the normal course of events.

We may see a temporary increase in attendance at swingers events, due to pent-up demand. I feel that in a relatively short time, two to three years, we'll have about the same percentage of the population who are active swingers as before the pandemic.

I do expect a bit of the roaring twenties, after a pandemic, again.  With an upswing in swinging being part of that.  We are returning to swinging after having taken a years long break before the pandemic.  Spending a year bottled up inside caused a little recalculating on how we want to enjoy life.

I think that there is pent up demand. I wonder if younger people (30s-40s) are into swinging. I heard younger people are into cyber watching.

Does appear to be higher rates(in our circles anyway).  Just defined as polyamory and ethical non-monogamy rather than swinging.  And more prevalent use of hookup apps to go about it rather than a swing club/house party(or an online forum for that matter).

From our experience which is limited you might be on to something. Since more people are vaccinated and things are opening we have met two couples that are new to extracurricular sex. 

I think staying home has either made them realize that they were getting bored or they had time to watch porn opening up to new ideas. Changes for the wife was also a factor. 

The first couple was very specific to what they wanted to try with the wife extremely curious about playing with another woman. We were very cautious and didn’t push or pressure them. We made sure they wanted to explore. 

The second couple are friends of the first couple. They agreed that it would be better for a third couple, us, be the guide for them. The original couple put the idea out there but found it awkward to play with their friends. 

Here are two couples coming out of isolation who had new ideas of where their sexual futures should go. Don’t know if that is an indicator.

It's hard to make predictions, especially about the future.

Predicting the past is much easier.

If I could predict the future with any amount of accuracy, I would be rich enough to where we could have all of the women and couples we could ever want. We would probably also have bought this forum as well and would be planning the biggest swinger event since the Romans...

If others are like us there will be a big boom. 

Locked up and isolated gave us time to figure out life is fragile. Healthy today on a respirator tomorrow, know people who exercise and eat healthy trying to always doing the right thing having their life cut short. Being together 24/7 gave us time to talk and have sex. We watched online porn with people having fun and our conversation went to the question of could you do that. We got to the part about transmitting diseases, here we were isolating did we want to tempt fate. Vaccinations done the talk was do I want sex with someone new. Vaginal or oral? I said sex is sex. A woman? Maybe. YOLO. 

 

We found a couple, strangers to us and after we did the deed we had no regrets. I shared my thoughts and deed with a very good friend telling her why we did it. She explained to her husband my thoughts. Didn’t take her long to say her husband wanted me. 

We put off swinging with them and suggested it would be better if they were with someone else first. Make sure first, we can wait. 
Boom? Well here are 2 new couples who have joined the LS after vaccination.

Someone in another thread mentioned their wife going pretty hard on solo meets since the pandemic. I'm also seeing sort of an anecdotal uptick in interest in new activities.

 

In addition to taking an interest in us connecting with candidates on apps, Mrs. E went for a therapeutic massage while I was out of town this week and blurted out when I got back that she spent the 90 minutes thinking about how badly she wanted to get fucked by the therapist.

 

The woman I met with solo right before the pandemic reached out. Her husband does not play, but has a cuckold interest so she plays solo as a submissive. Now she wants to try multiple men and is wondering if I can help her navigate that. (I'm not sure why I'm the authority on this other than she seemed to respond very well to me as a dominant.)

 

The single woman we play with together, we do FMF every month or so. Mrs. E has done FMF with her and her main boyfriend (at the time) once. Now she's wondering if she can borrow Mrs. E again.

 

Minds are definitely racing about how to make up for lost time.

Our social calendar seems busier each week. (Most) humans don't like isolation and look forward to connection. COVID and "the lost year" brought that into much sharper focus. It's not just minds that want to make up for lost time--bodies want to come along.
