Soccer Parents Upset Swinger Party At Same Hotel

My wife and I would never participate in swinging. That said, "faithful" in marriage means different things to different people. As long as both aprtners agree to the activity, then IMHO there is no breach of faith or trust. Marriage is about a whole lot more than sex, anyway.

Why the heck get married to begin with in the first place then if one's going to share their special someone w/ someone else.

Of course marriage is a whole lot more than just sex...that's a given.

Sex is only one small part of a relationship. I choose not to judge the way others live their relationships.

So that by itself explains why some people might get married and still want to "share" their spouse. It doesn't do it for me, but hey it takes all kinds of people to make the world work.

There's plenty of practical reasons. Heck a lot of marriages up to early last century were for anything but love...."love came later" like they say in the movies.

If someone has a different definition of marriage but only applies that definition to their own marriage and they're happy with it....what's the problem?

Well, I've said all that I'm going to on this matter...I agree to DISagree.

I'm with you Eric.

And now that I really think about it, if you're a swinger, doesn't that mean you're intervening in someone else's marriage?

No, not if the other marriage invited you in (provided you didn't wear out your welcome)

How could someone be invited IN to another marriage?

Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but isn't there something to be said for "forsaking all others, being faithful only to [the spouse], so long as you both shall live," vowing the above "til death do us part," and sealing it with a ring as a symbol of their unbroken circle of love?

Doesn't swinging (and especially making a lifestyle out of it) take a lot of out the true meaning of those vows?

By mutual agreement between all 3 parties in question, man, wife, 3rd person. If the married couple agrees to invite someone else into the marriage (in this case sexually) where is it our place to say they cannot do it? ]

While we may indeed say it's not something we would do personally, and not personally do said thing, that doesn't give us the right to demand that everyone else do exactly what we'd do or not do anything we wouldn't do. This is especially true in matters of consent.
