After registering on Ashley Madison we continued to check on our other profile which had a message left for us by someone we know. We never saw their profile in our searches so were surprised and frightened to see their profile picture when we clicked. We know them on what we would label a Hi, how are you basis. They are usually with others when we see them in a few local bars and now we were searching for those friends profiles. Mike and I responded in a very funny way, What are you doing here? We only thought of them as very vanilla socially active friendly, not lifestylers. Their response was a cell number so Mike called. Some very funny laughing conversation with a meeting set, we met them without their crowd of friends. Our conversation started with us telling them some of our history and them sharing theirs. I asked about which of their friends play but they were silent. That was a plus for us.

When we made our first online profile we quickly discovered a couple we know who live just a block away. They are the types who put their faces right on their public profile (we don't). In the interest of fairness we reached out and said "Hi" although never played with them bc they're not our type. We are friends now and they are a valuable source of local swing-scene info and gossip 😀

All I know is you shouldn’t eat at either of it smells like fish…

While attending a vanilla benefit with a wide range of friends we gathered with a number of lifestyle friends, current and past. Many we are still in contact with…..some we still share with. A few we had not seen in several years due to distance or life changes. It was all grand. The benefit was a success and social reconnection with old friends current and past was the Diamond of the evening. We all gathered at a local home of one couple for catching up…reminiscing, stories, reminiscing on past adventures and more current, promises of keeping in touch….getting together etc. And no it did not evolve…not even close…..to any sort of play party. It was spectacular. The changes in life….not just physically….or age….but the interesting turns and changes in life, relationship, work and family. As some start to drift away to head home there were about 16 - 20 of us left. More flash back open/descriptive talk about events/experiences of the past, parties, events, themes, solo, group play etc. the oldest there almost eighty (this year and still active in their community in Florida) youngest couples/singles early 40’s. Always a mix of people at our party/events core group now age 55-65. The things we talked about…work, family, kids, grand kids…….finances, living arrangements. Living arrangements being probably the third most talked about….and changed….in most cases added to. 8-10 poly like living arrangements out of our group alone. Interesting. Surprisingly not any one in this group had a divorce from their spouse since we met them in the lifestyle some two plus decades ago (yes some were currently on marriage two at that time) a few sadly lost their spouse to illnesses. The most discussed, shared and stories told……themed and destination events that we set up……that were not sex play based….more social. Yes stories were told of specific memories of wonderful shared time, group play etc. But the dinners, trips, music festivals etc were warmly embraced. The most laughed about, cat called, teased……and astonishing? Kat……a friend for many years…..Lesbian Dom bi situational (yes they do exist) managed to start an interesting twist that had everyone operating the calculator app on their phone. It started small…..a few of the ladies standing together with howls of laughter and oh my gods! Apparently, Kat introduced a definition to discover how bi or lesbian a woman was by how much semen she has accepted in her sexual lifetime. Either topically, internally or orally. After a blow up of laughter she was made to share and it went down hill from there, very quickly. Seems she takes the average semen at male ejaculation (.3 tsp to 1.5 tsp) of 1 teaspoon full times the average or quantity of sex where you accepted semen on you, inside you or orally. Hhmmmm. So the big number that got all the howling from the ladies…….my Queen. We have always been highly sexual with each other….since 20 and married we easily had sex twice a day until just recently the last two to three years we are more once a day with the occasional 2 - 3 special on a weekend or with a friend 🤩 . So some fast math…….using her average as it only involved us….. sexually active married couple, married 45 years, sex twice a day on average (does not include multiples or lifestyle participation, that could add over 20 in a single day party) 365 X 2 = 730 ejaculations in a year. Times 45 years of activity…….32,850 ejaculations…….I’m starting to feel very exhausted……..now it gets interesting….. so average male ejaculate equals 1 teaspoon. That’s 32,850 teaspoons………..wait there’s more……….there is 738 teaspoons in a gallon….. wait for it…….. 44.51 gallons…………. Damn Queenie………… a standard tub is around 30 gallons……a 10 minute shower 20-25 gallons……. oh, and Kat’s number………well under a gallon……she is very picky lol

10CCs or a Lovin Spoonful?

This has always been an issue….location, location……location. most do not know or understand their local zoning, home business….or zoned business requirements. then there are business requirements, registration, fees, taxes, licenses, permits, business name registration and DBA’s. Oh damn doesn’t stop there……insurance or insurances. Set backs and space or location away…distance from other listed businesses. Oops….and parking…..all above also applies to parking. in our location it has been rather easy….if you follow all the various rules, laws, requirements, registrations listings etc etc oh and parking. All that have been shut down were due to misguided attempts to circumvent the rules, guidelines, laws etc etc. up to including donations for house parties. Still income…..regardless, unless you are a listed charity. This and parking lead to almost every home party to be shut down at one time or another. Complaints of people parking along the street…..noise and gathering size….leads to complaints, investigation then to non compliance and shutdown……to unwanted publicity. some generalizations apply every where….the rest are by state, county and town. And a few by residence as in gated, non gated, complex, condo and apartment contract application. so yes, small tight, closed group parties can work….and do work well. More open to general admissions require much more attention to detail……and requirements. we have a lot of insight with this for our area.

That's different than the Red Lobster right NWAtlSwing?

Of course. Though not in detail, just disclosed multiple partners and non-monogamous. Changed my vaccine schedule(notably to get the Hepatitus and HPV vaccines) and a periodic ask for STI screening but that's it.

I did not "lose" my virginity. I know exactly where I left it.

That's a matter of personal judgement. As a physician, I long ago learned to make no assumptions about anyone. Rather, guarantee privacy and confidentiality and let the patient tell the story. Over the years, a number of colleagues have come to me as patients with personal health issues that make non-monogamy look like a skinned knee by comparison. Physicians, particularly older physicians, know two things. First, trust matters. The Hippocratic oath has meaning. Second, how people conduct their lives is their choice. Keeping them healthy and safe is our responsibility. Trust me when I say that we look at STI testing as utterly routine. While certain infections have to be reported to public health authorities, those reports are strictly confidential as well. Non-monogamy is hardly unusual. An asymptomatic swinger who presents him/herself for STI testing is either smart, worried or both. Every responsible physician is happy to do the testing and provide treatment or reassurance as needed.

We live in a small town. Only 2 lady docs to pick from. I'm a nurse in our local hospital and work very closely with them both. My doc is an older man and isn't shocked by much... at least he didn't seem too shocked when he saw my nipple piercings! But to tell him I'm a swinger - no way! I don't think I could work with the man anymore. In my situation there has to be some secrets.

Today's decision, good news! Judge: Decision to revoke swinger's club license improper

Freaking politicians, they are ALL crooks from local city level to big government.
