Couples and singles engaging in recreational sexual activity with others, openly and consensually.
Swinging is a form of consensual non monogamy in which couples, and sometimes singles, take part in recreational sexual activity with other people. It is usually social and recreational rather than romantic, which distinguishes it from polyamory. Swinging happens at clubs, parties and private meets, and ranges from soft swap to full swap depending on what people are comfortable with. The whole scene runs on consent, honesty and respect for boundaries.
Frequently asked questions
How do people get started in swinging?
Many couples begin by reading and talking openly about boundaries, then attending a lifestyle club on a social basis with no pressure to do anything. Going slowly and communicating constantly is the usual advice.
Is swinging the same as polyamory?
No. Swinging is usually about recreational sex with others, while polyamory is about multiple loving relationships. Some people do both, but the emphasis is different.
