At one time, I was part of the swinging community for about 18 months or so. While I think some in that community are bit flamboyant about their sexual mores (in the same way that many gays tend to be about theirs), there is a certain healthy openness in their approach to relationships and sexuality.<br /><br />Marriage is not ownership. Yes, we all want something special and place value on exclusivity but are emotional and sexual exclusivity intrinsically tied together?<br /><br />I like the rice-noodles analogy. A similar analogy I heard once was if a couple goes out for a truly wonderful dinner and then order dessert afterward, does that mean they didn't enjoy the dinner? A man (or woman) may thoroughly enjoy a healthy, nutritious and filling dinner. It may even be delicious and wonderful. Does that then mean they should have no interest in a taste of dessert?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06238554016389090621noreply@blogger.com
