Swing Safe!

As with any sexual activity you should always play it safe. Of course you are secure with your mates’ sexual health but when swinging you have to take other peoples sexual health into account!

To put it simply you should always wear a condom by default if you are a male and if you are a female you should always have a condom at the ready to offer your potential partner!

At parties we have hosted sometimes we would get flack from couples when we would tell them they had to have a condom on, They would say this is my wife or this is my husband, boyfriend, girlfriend, soul mate whatever… but in a darkened room with more than 2 bodies on a bed things can get hot and heavy and things can slip into other things if you get my drift.

The rule of thumb at any swing event is to have more condoms than you could possibly hope to use, and this goes for women as well! Keep a few on each of you especially if you are in full swap situations.

If you are at a club or a large swing function you might want to keep your partner within view not to see what he or she is doing, but to make sure they are comfortable and not in an awkward or threatening situation. I find this to be a good rule to follow when at clubs and it’s not just about the women! Men can also find themselves in awkward situations and sometimes being able to assist each other in a tight spot is a good thing… No pun intended.

If you have decided to use internet posting sites or newspaper/magazine ads to find potential partners try to use a little common sense. Even though you may have had great experiences until this point you are still dealing with an unknown factor! And this is just advice. The excitement of dealing with an “unknown” may be part of the turn on for you, but you should always meet first at a public location like a bar or restaurant or even a mall. If everything clicks you should use a hotel or motel not your residence, at least until you get to know exactly if you want to keep these people as future partners/friends remember until that point the only thing you had in common was sex nothing more and as an ethnic couple discretion is important because someone may notice strange couples in and out of your residence all hours of the night. Knowing that people are nosey by nature why give them fodder to blab about?

Until you are comfortable with people you meet online or via ads you should keep as much of your personal and professional life to yourself.

This is just an overview of what I think are some safety tips everyone should incorporate in their swinging experience but as a couple you should also create your own list of “safety best practices” as well just to make sure that their will be nothing but good times ahead in your lifestyle escapades!
