Swingers parties

I was reading Reuters news site, when this article came screaming to my attention. It was about Swingers Parties in Singapore [link].

Now, for one, I never knew prudish Singapore tolerated that kind of stuff! For the people aged 35 and below, I could accept that they were all for it, but I would have thought that the conservative Sporean Govt would not have allowed it, for fear of damaging social effects.

I mean, swingers parties are essentially events where couples go to.. swap spouses...for sexual purposes. Can you imagine the .. after effects? Some women might see it as betrayal or see it as temptation or perhaps influencing the husband to start affairs outside. I don't know, I can't think like a woman, that has been made painfully clear to me on many occasions.

But I DO know how a guy would feel. Geez..in short - quite f * c k e d up. He would forever be thinking damn did she enjoy it more with him than with me? From now on whenever we do these things will she secretly compare us and find me lacking? That kind of stuff...

And how do I know? Weeell, personal guesses aside, I remember when I was back in uni, a close guy friend of mine was asking all of us, what we thought of the idea of watching our gfs having sex with another guy. We were like.. WHAT?! U PERVERT. Then he was like no no...he said HE has a friend, an Aussie or something, who apparently was into this stuff and my friend even claims that theres a whole thriving porn underground industry for these things. The market is like huge.

I couldnt believe it!

So after adamantly refusing to hear anymore and just repeatedly saying "NO NO NO NO WAY GO AWAY MAN WAT THE HELL THATS DAMN TWISTED AND DISTURBING" we eventually calmed down to discuss why we wouldnt be happy about it.. coming up with the abovementioned reasons. Among others.

So this article reminded me of all those things. And 1 more thing.

I remember telling the gf, in a joking sort of way, hey, next time I am down in Singapore, lets go for these Swingers things!

She: What for?
Me: Weeellll....just sit there and look around and see people in action and their spouses' reactions! Would be jolly hilarious and interesting I bet.
She: Hehe.. yes it will...
Me: [joking] Then I can get to try other people's spouses while you sit there and watch.
She: WHAT! So double standard - hhmmm...actually... that might be fun...

Huh?!

I wonder if I could use that as a readymade excuse (But you said its fun! I just was practicing before showing you the main act!) if ever I cheat on her and get caught...
