    A Primer on Swinging:

    How to Meet, Have Sexy Times, & Otherwise Enjoy Your Friends and Neighbors

    Cooper and Dylan, co-hosts of Life on the Swingset the podcast, take you through the common peaks and valleys of beginning swinging, from the moment that voice in your head tells you that you're different, to when you're setting up that gang-bang for your fiancee's birthday. They cover jealousy, safer sex practices, communication with your partner and playmates, and delve deeper into the whys of this thing called swing. Whether you're brand new to swinging, been doing it for years, or just fascinated by the idea, there's something here for everyone.

      Hi there. Interesting discussion. What is the name of the open relationship negotiation website you mentioned?

      My GF and I have been in the lifestyle for about 5 years. A few years ago I came up with the term ‘french-vanilla’ to describe couples who are SOP knowledgable and may even show interest but haven’t as yet taken the necessary steps to become actual swingers – and we all know couples like this; whaddya think?

        That’s pretty awesome 🙂

      I love that you talk about meet and greets! I think that is such a great way for new people to check out the swing scene.

      It’s worth pointing out (to save some clicks and disappointment) that OurOpenAgreement.com is a paywalled site, costing $20 for access. I’ve seen other similar sites for free, so my guess uptake is likely to be pretty low, though, because it’s impossible to get a look at OurOpenAgreement prior to paying for it, it’s also impossible to make a judgement regarding relative quality.

        Well, we recommend it, and feel that it is worth the $20

      At this point in time the open agreement site is no longer available. I’m not sure if you go back to this topic in future episodes as I am still working my way through them. But I was wondering if there is another site with a similar agreement that you would recommend.
