Swinging History

Wife swapping has been around since human kind has been in existence. Some think it is a fairly recent additon to sexual choices. This is not the case at all. If one would look back to the days of the Roman Orgies they would find a different reality. It was in the 1950s when the world was introduced to swinging through groups. With the introduction to the war came the introduction to wife swapping.

US airforce pilots had a close knit bond and friends would tell a pilot that they would care for his wife until his return. If he would be wounded or killed he would not have to worry about his wife. This also meant sexually. The key parties later made it more accessible to the general population. During these parties couples would attend. The husband or boyfriend would place his keys in a bowl at the beginning of the night. After a night of a few drinks and conversation the men would sit on one half of the room and the women on the other. Each woman would draw a set of keys and go home, or to another room, and have sex with that man.

Later magazines, newspapers and other forms of communication were established. Couples and individuals were able to take out and answer ads looking for “playmates”. Finally with the advent of the Internet more resources were available for them to find people. Swinging and wife swapping clubs then became more common. Couples and individuals can join for a minimal fee and go through an application process.

Whether it be known as wife swapping, swinging, one thing remains the same. Couples and individuals have found a way to live a lifestyle they desire and express themselves. There is a sexual freedom all involved share. And they have the ability to enjoy it.

Swinging has existed for decades in America. It was in the 1950s that it gained media attention and became popular. It was previously known as wife swapping. Swinging involves couples and singles meeting for intimate encounters. Those involved posses an open mindedness when it comes to their sexual freedoms. They have the urge and ability to act out fantasies. Now swinging is referred to as “The Lifestyle”.

Researchers have found swinging occurred as far back as early Roman days. It is well known the Romans loved their orgies!

Wife swapping was introduced in our culture during WWI. Military husbands would attend parties being told that if they were killed in the line of duty friends would care for their wives, including sexually. Key parties then came about. A bowl would be placed in the room and men would put their keys into the bowl. All the women would choose a set of keys and go to bed with the man who owned them.

Since it’s introduction it has been accepted more. Modern swinging is more equal with men and women having an equal role in finding their “friends” and enjoying the experience equally. It has now spread across the world with the introduction of magazines and clubs.

The Internet helped the lifestyle grow beginning in the 80s. With the introduction of anonymity and the ability to meet more people, many joined the lifestyle. Before the Internet, swingers had to rely on magazines and newspapers to find others with the same interests. This was a new avenue for swingers to meet others with the same interests.

The swinging community continues to grow daily. The Internet not only helps couples and individuals find people with the same likes and interests, it helps spread information on the lifestyle. And, with the acceptance of the lifestyle, it will continue to grow.

Wife swapping, or swinging parties, have been held for years. Some of the first were the Roman Orgies. With the 1950s and then the sexual revolution they became more common and held more often.

The first common party to be held were key parties. Couples would arrive at the designated location and upon entering drop their keys into a bowl. The party would commence as any normal party with drinks, food and conversation. At the end of the evening all participating would gather in a room with men on one side and women on the other. Each woman would then draw a set of keys from the bowl. The man who owned the keys she drew would be her partner for the night. They would either go home or go to another room to have sex. Some couples would go to the same room, giving an exhibitionism or voyeuristic feel to the experience.

With the addition of newspapers, magazines and the Internet parties are larger with couple and group sex occuring. These days a common party would include a couple arriving at a hotel. The group of partiers rents out the whole floor. This enables them to go room to room pleasuring each other. No longer are keys drawn, you find individuals or couples that you click with. Chemistry is important. Then you retire to a room. It is common for more than one couple to be in a room.

Also it can be a more intimate gathering of only two to three couples. A hot tub party is common with couples renting out a whirlpool suite and sampling each other.

Thanks to increased ability to communicate parties are larger and planned more. No longer do couples and individuals need to stay within their homes. Options have come a long way since the key parties of earlier years.

Dogging is a term that can get some people very aroused. “What is dogging?” You may well ask. Basically, it describes sexual behavior in an outdoor setting for couples and individuals. From having sex on a blanket in a park to a session in a parked car at the park, dogging can be hot. The appeal to the people who participate in dogging is the exhibitionism and vouyeurism associated. The thrill is what it is all about.
This can be a gangbang on a blanket in the woods or park or couples in a car sucking toes and having sex. Swinging is not the main focus, it is swinging with the added enjoyment of possibly getting caught or being seen. Or, it could be the enjoyment of getting caught while watching your wife/husband or girlfriend/boyfriend with someone else.
A typical dogging encounter would involve going to a carpark and waiting to be approached. If you like the couple/individual invite them into the car. The amount of activity is up to you. It could be sucking on toes and oral sex to full intercourse
Dogging can be difficult, more hit and miss than anything. Hours can be spent at a location with no takers. Therefore, advertising is the way to go. There are dogging boards available online. Be careful not to describe yourself too much, and the time you will be at a park, etc. Ask for emails and pick those you want to meet before hand.
Safety is most important. Do not take anything of high value with you. Move your purse or wallet to the glove box or in the trunk. Those meeting you could find all your personal information, including your address and name.
Dogging can be fun for those who like voyeurism and exhibitionism. Be sure to be safe and play by the rules.
