Tips For Talking To Your Partner About Swinging
There are many sex-positive communities out there, and swinging is one of them. For some people, it can help a relationship open up and become more trusting and adventurous. For others, there is a little bit more hesitation during the start. Swinging is not for everyone, and there are multiple different approaches you can utilize before and while suggesting swinging to your partner.
Many people utilize a casual mention of swinging in a conversation to see how their partner reacts. This strategy, as well as other ways to gently test the waters, can provide an initial viewpoint on the concept.
Some people choose to watch a movie or TV show that has at least one scene about swinging in it. Swinging is becoming more mainstream, making shows and movies about it easier to find. These types of movies can help make it easier to slide into a conversation about swinging to gauge your partner's reaction. Some movies that could work include Secret Lives Of Swingers, Hall Pass, The Overnight, and there are many others as well.
Educating yourself is one of the primary ways to learn answers to the questions your partner may have about swinging. Learn through books and reputable websites, and note that reading the books on your phone or a tablet can be recommended if you do not want your partner to find the book before you are ready to talk. Keep in mind that polyamory is different than swinging, though some of these books do overlap in information.
For people who are comfortable watching porn together, pornography that features a swapping, group sex, or threesomes can be a fun way to introduce conversation, fantasies, and desires. It is still essential to be tactful. Sexual fantasies involving other people can also be suggested. For some, taking a more direct approach can prove to be a good plan. Depending on your partner, choose an option, or more than one, from these suggestions. Be respectful of the conversation and the answers you get, there are many different preferences that people have in terms of sex and sexuality. Approaching in a calm and relaxed manner, and at an appropriate time, can pay major dividends.
