What Are You Doing After The Orgy?

CLAIRE: One problem with swinging is the way it tends to become your entire life. We found just that happening to us. It was kicks in a lot of ways, but as a matter of fact there really is such a thing as having too much of a good thing. It got so that the only people we ever saw socially were swingers, and we never did go for the idea of a close circle of friends. Instead we would party it up with new people all of the time, and that meant that all we did socially was either talk about sex or do it or watch movies of other people doing it.

KEN: It got terribly one-sided and left us feeling hung up a lot of the time, not for moral reasons as much as with a sense of frustration, as though our lives were one dimensional and empty.

CLAIRE: And the non-swingers we met, we always thought of them in sexual terms. If they appealed, we would try to seduce them, and while we were lucky we took the chance of running into a great deal of trouble. I would say we were within inches of having our whole life turn into one big swing session.

KEN: There are more people who live that way than you might realize. People we’ve swung with over the years have told us about whole apartment buildings where the tenants are one hundred percent swingers. Just one permanent balling session from morning to night three hundred and sixty-five days out of the year. I understand there’s a party there every night, and the parties are something out of this world. But even without the parties, it’s just sex all the time. You meet someone in the elevator and you have a fast feely session on the way to the lobby. Or if there’s time you go to an apartment and make it. I can see living that way for a little while, but can you imagine that way of life on a permanent basis?

CLAIRE: It would kill me within a year, I’m sure. But more than that, those people don’t have anything going for them in life but sex. It’s all they do and all they know and all they think about. I like sex as much as the next person—

KEN: More.

CLAIRE: —but there’s a limit. A person needs a full life, and if you swing all the way you give up everything else.

KEN: So as far as regular swinging goes, we’ve virtually eliminated it. Oh, we have one couple we’re friendly with, and we see them a couple of times a week, but half the time we don’t even have sex, it’s just a social thing. Anyway, we don’t think of it as swinging. More like a four-way marriage.

CLAIRE: And when we’re ready for all-out sex, we make the scene at a weekend orgy. I’d say that in the last year we went to five of them, plus a week-long swinging vacation in Puerto Rico.
