What are the risks of swinging?

As with almost everything we do in life, there are risks in being a swinger. Just as with our other activities, we can lessen the risks by taking a few simple steps.

The biggest risk of all is that you will have a great time and will never want to leave the lifestyle.

To reduce the physical risks

  • Make sure you know some real facts about the person before you meet, such as their address or their phone number.
  • Tell someone who you are meeting, just don`t tell them why!
  • Meet in a public place, if you are uncomfortable with the person, leave
  • Safest of all, meet in a swingers club. Everyone will protect you if any problems arise. If you like the person you can always meet again alone.

To reduce the emotional risks

  • If you are a couple, never force your partner to join in the scene - it will probably lead to a break up in your relationship.
  • Discuss what you are both happy doing before meeting anyone.
  • Stick to what you agreed on when you start to play.
  • Don't cheat on your partner.
  • Don't exclude your partner from your fun.
  • If either of you stops having fun - STOP swinging.
