Some poly people are former or “evolved” swingers. They discovered they wanted more from a relationship than the sex alone could give them. Others may straddle both worlds as they attend poly gatherings and “permissive” parties. Hopefully these folks have read Bouquet of Lovers (please see full article on the CAW website  ) and practice safe sex!

At LifeStyles Conventions given by Wide World of Swingers, Hospitality was handled by a group of people who had known each other over many conventions. They had worked closely together on all the details of making a big convention successful for those giving it and those attending it. Some may have originally met at one of those parties which were frankly Swing parties, had sex and not asked their partner’s name. After working together for years, going to each other’s weddings and kids Bar Mitzvahs as well as social gatherings of all kinds for holidays, etc. any love making they do with each other is no longer casual and is certainly not anonymous.

Even if they still call themselves swingers, they are probably poly by most definitions. Might swing parties be one way to introduce people to the poly life style while looking for potential love partners who may not yet know they are poly?
