"Our experience was that based on our photos they didn't allow us to attend. Obviously we were not young enough or attractive for them." . Obviously didn't check your profile pics as you both look great xx | |||
"Our experience was that based on our photos they didn't allow us to attend. Obviously we were not young enough or attractive for them." We were rejected by them as well, fair enough they didn't want us. Maybe it was because we didn't dress fancy enough for the pics. But we enjoy clubs that have pool and spa areas better anyway so it's no loss. We also prefer places that are less pretentious. | |||

" All you want is a clean night " I thought swingers liked to get dirty | |||
"Our experience was that based on our photos they didn't allow us to attend. Obviously we were not young enough or attractive for them." That’s ridiculous. Sorry to hear that. Same thing happened to me and my FWB when we applied ages ago as a couple. And I remember their response for why our membership was rejected being really rude. As previously mentioned, there are luckily many better options. | |||

Seems you haven't quite grasped the meaning of "over subscribed". It has nothing to do with the value of a person's money. It also has nothing to do with caring capability. It's a great club. I strongly suggest you relax a little and re-apply in the hope that membership becomes available for you. xx | |||

It's well worth it !" Don’t take it personally. They just personally judged the person on a pic. They are not over subscribed week in week out you see most clubs getting spoken about but le boudoir is not often spoken about on this site and not many people seen to ever say they are attending. It a club that is visited once in a while for people I guess due to cost and the location being central London is also a big factor. | |||

You’ve just reinforced the uppity nature of the place “reapply in the hope” oh my days we’ve heard it all now. There is not a single club in the world that is oversubscribed with couples, any sort of claim is laughable! | |||
" Nope - our money is as good as anyone else’s, if they didn’t want it when we wanted to be be a customer then they won’t get it all. They don’t care and neither do we " We feel exactly the same, they didn't want us at the time so that's fine, there's plenty other places we can go and we won't be reapplying with the hope we are now good enough or that their numbers have dropped. Your right the over subscribed didn't make sense either, since the membership isn't saying your going that night and each night is ticketed separately anyway. They just didn't like the look of us, which is fine, its their club and up to them. But it definitely makes us feel that their club isn't for us either. | |||

But that wasn't it, they had judged us based on a photo and told us we weren't welcome. We will never be re-applying, since we have discovered many other great clubs that we like. They don't want us so we don't want them. | |||

" And I remember their response for why our membership was rejected being really rude. " I have a friend who had a similar rude response. In the depths of the forum there is possibly a carcrash of a thread where someone voiced concerns that having been accepted their membership was revoked after 1 visit. And the clubs response was shocking. It's interesting to see how many people they reject. Personally a club where membership is approved or declined based on an entirely subjective review of pictures isn't for me. I don't need someone to decide whether I'm the sort of person their members would like or not | |||

"We were also rejected by them - it’s their club they can do as they choose. We will spend our money elsewhere. Simples. " If you guys are rejected. What chance do I have | |||

"I was a bit hesitant applying to Le Boudoir but ended up doing so and got accepted in about 30 minutes. Nothing wrong with the club itself but there wasn't anything particularly special about it to bring me back, especially with the fees they charge (Yes they can charge what they want). Too anyone rejected, I personally wouldn't say you're missing out on anything." Interesting that you feel there is nothing "particularly special" about Le Boudoir. As seasoned swingers whom have visited swingers clubs globally we can say with confidence that Le Boudoir is the best club in the UK, and well up there outside the UK too. The entry prices are not exorbitant for an international club of such high standing. Agree that they can charge what they want in exactly the same way that any private members club (swinging or not) can charge exactly what they want. Don't see any problem with that. Their business model is working very well as the place is always packed full of hot people every time we go ! If your application is not successful don't be overly sensitive and see it as "rejection". Such a great club is bound to be over subscribed at times. Just re-apply in future and keep your fingers crossed ! | |||

'We're always busy', 'we're currently over subscribed' and 'try applying again later'. Yet feedback contradicts the 'busy' claims, if membership is oversubscribed then just stop taking applications for everyone (which will never happen) and once rejected why would anyone want to reapply? I remember getting invites a decade ago from exclusive parties and club nights that vetted single males, because I had nice photos on here, good veris including club feedback and helped run club nights at other venues. None of the people sending invites knew me from Adam, had ever met me or even bothered to ask if I was interested. I'd just get 'xyz club/party would like to invite you to their next event'. I never replied to a single one. Club membership shouldn't require a CV style application. It shouldn't require a formal interview as if applying for a job. The only things required should be proof of identity and confirmation that someone understands the club rules and the implications and consequences for ant breaches of them. Of course anyone can open a club or host a party and set whatever membership or entry rules they wish. Of course these will always exist. Most are well known on the circuit and they trade on 'exclusivity' and only inviting the attractive and the beautiful. And it works for them. It strokes the egos of those that are permitted access and any deviation from strict criteria will reflect badly on them, so if you're not considered worthy it's tough luck. My view? It goes against the ethos of swinging and the inclusive nature of the scene. Others will of course disagree. But just remember. Those that are deemed 'acceptable' for membership based on their looks now may well have a shock in a few years time when they are considered no longer fitting for the clubs desired profile.

" My view? It goes against the ethos of swinging and the inclusive nature of the scene. Others will of course disagree. But just remember. Those that are deemed 'acceptable' for membership based on their looks now may well have a shock in a few years time when they are considered no longer fitting for the clubs desired profile." Yes, I'm one of those who strongly disagree. These clubs are not charities but businesses and are here to make money by catering for the demand of their clientele. And as private members' clubs, they have all the right to pick and choose whom they accept and whom they reject. If they say it's because of being oversubscribed, that's just them being polite. Would it be better if they would say the harsh truth? If I go to a swingers club, of course, I don't "expect" anything to happen, but I go with the hope of meeting someone we mutually like each other and will have sex. If I wasn't hoping for that, I would rather go to the corner pub, I can socialise there too - which I like, anyway. Therefore I will choose a club where the majority of the crowd matches my sexual preferences. If I don't find the crowd attractive, I will vote with my feet and don't go there, choose another one. If many people do that, the club will go down as a business - or in a better scenario, will find its own clientele who will have a great time together and keep the place rolling too. To be fair, something similar happened to another club (I won't name it), 5-6 years ago on a Friday night I could fall in love many times! Then slowly an older crowd took it over, and I heard plenty of times in other clubs from younger couples, that they stopped going there, simply because they don't find the majority of the crowd sexually attractive. A swinger club can't please every demographics. Call me a twat, but if the "ethos" of swinging is not to be picky about whom I have sex with, then I'm definitely not a swinger. Yes, I will be over 60 myself one day too, and I'm actually glad to see that there are places where people in their 60s or over can have fun. But at the moment, I'm not attracted to ladies of that age, just like I don't feel offended if girls in their 20s don't look at me as a potential partner anymore. People should be much less sensitive, in general... | |||

People should be much less sensitive, in general..." I've stripped out a few lines to save on space, but here's my take on that. Clubs don't have to please every demographic. But most don't filter out people that the owners or management deem 'unattractive' though, based on what they personal feel fits a definition. It won't be a democracy. Club members won't get to sit round a table and vote. It'll be the view of a couple of people at best. The vast majority of clubs cater for different tastes and clientelle by having specific themed nights - age focussed events, BBW nights, BMFC, gender and sexuality orientated. Of course everyone can be as 'picky' as they wish. Nobody is saying otherwise, challenging that andbits certainly not what I was referring to when I used the word 'ethos'. Essentially your choice of play partners is being made for you. When someone decides who attends an event they are controlling the choices you have. You'll be limited to their idea of someone suitable rather than making your own mind up about whether someone is interesting, attractive or not based on your own tastes. It's the attitude of someone deciding who should be a club member based on looks alone (and let's face it - that's the criteria they use) that to me is shallow, self centred and egotistical. It takes away individual choice and promotes a viewpoint that everyone should be attracted to those that fir the decision makers preferences. If that sits well with you then that's fine. You've stated why you have no issue with it. Others have stated a counter viewpoint. I don't for one second think the club will change its mind based on the views of people they reject though. That would be a tad naieve. A | |||

"obviously not been to _enthouse playrooms" What's it like ? | |||
| |||
"Take a look at there website got pics on there i heard they have spent £500,000 on the club, and it looks like it x and its very friendly and not judgmental open to all x x " It sounds Fab | |||
"obviously not been to _enthouse playrooms What's it like ?" Penthouse is at least on the level of LB. Personally, I like the venue even more. The crowd is also sexy and the vibe is super friendly. For me, the only downside is the location as I live in London and don't drive when I'm partying, so an evening at PP means another £100 on the hotel, or a bit adventurous 2-2.5 hours journey to home after the party, as even trains don't run on Sunday early morning. Buses are 24/7 tho coz of the airport. The club is definitely worth it! | |||

"Would anyone meet someone without seeing a photo? Age? Description? Honestly, you could fill a supermarket with the sour grapes on here. There are plenty of swinger clubs with a less selective policy, and actually quite a few do have a policy, perhaps not as tight but it’s not unusual. " It's not sour grapes if you've never applied to such a club is it? Out of interest if any of the club/party organisers are reading this and would be happy to reply...... What happens if someone you've vetted and approved put a bit of weight on, ages a couple of years and develops wrinkles, slightly droopy boobs or a bit of grey hair on their head or elsewhere? Would they be booted, even if they'd been a long standing supportive member that's spent a lot of money with you? Would their previous looks get them a free pass? Or would they get the chop the second their 'attractiveness' dropped a few percentage points? Genuinely curious. A | |||
"Any members able to detail the joining process - notably the info. held by the club? From what we see online, we submit several pix inc. one showing today’s date to prove its current, along with names & address. Presume this is verified, but how? Do we need to show up with utility bills on first visit Asking as we’re not exactly keen on too much private info. being stored, and risk of data hack/leak etc. Over cautious? Possibly. But since some venues don’t require membership, why take low risk over no risk? Everything we’ve heard about the club sounds great though, so if registration process is more about verifying ID just the once, would be very tempted! Struggling with spurious error messages when browsing the ‘register’ section as linked from Fab. Hoping someone with direct experience can help. DMs very welcome" I was a member fir three years went once which was a bit boring they koerd far too many single guys on a Friday nevertheless although I did not take part in anything I had fone nice chats and left in avoid mood. Always got invited to attend their events so went along one night I was in the area showed my membership everything was fine until they said my membership had been withdrawn. No reason whatsoever. I have heard this happening to others. So I can't recommend it | |||

"I have heard good and bad reviews about LB. On my humble opinion as a private members club they are entitled to make their own rules.

LB is not operating under monopolistic conditions, on the contrary, the UK club market is crowded and there are plenty of upmarket clubs to visit, Liberty, VA, and Purple Mamba as far as I know are on the same level or higher than LB and are unlikely to reject someone based on body shape, age, hair colour, wrinkles..." Agreed, except we're not sure if there really are clubs on the "smae level or higher" than Le Boudoir. In fact we'd suggest definitely not. No idea what you mean about people being "rejected" with regard to hair colour etc. ! Do you have any credible proof of this, or is it,as suspected, pure (possibly bitter) speculation ? | |||

A lot of London clubs, as in normal vanilla nightclubs have a condition of entrance scanned identification as this is part of their licensing conditions.I suspect that's what they would be referring to | |||

Have you not been lucky enough to gain membership ?" Being slim and good looking should not make you lucky enough. I was slim and good looking years ago. Obviously Father Time has caught up on me. I am still the witty, moody, character that enjoys sex just a bit older | |||
"I have heard good and bad reviews about LB. On my humble opinion as a private members club they are entitled to make their own rules. Personally I prefer not to be subjected to this type of scrutiny based on looks as we all know the concept of beauty is very subjective. LB is not operating under monopolistic conditions, on the contrary, the UK club market is crowded and there are plenty of upmarket clubs to visit, Liberty, VA, and Purple Mamba as far as I know are on the same level or higher than LB and are unlikely to reject someone based on body shape, age, hair colour, wrinkles... Agreed, except we're not sure if there really are clubs on the "smae level or higher" than Le Boudoir. In fact we'd suggest definitely not. No idea what you mean about people being "rejected" with regard to hair colour etc. ! Do you have any credible proof of this, or is it,as suspected, pure (possibly bitter) speculation ? Just out of curiosity.....are you linked with the club in any way? You seem very vocal about how fantastic it is and how wrong everyone else's opinions are? Not sure anyone hijacked the thread as you stated, nor that anyone is 'bitter' - just people questioning and discussing the membership application process which is a reasonable thing to happen. If the club has any feedback maybe they could comment themselves? A We are not "linked" to the club at all, just members of our community that appreciate a great club when we see one. Your post does seem a little bit anti (not to mention factually incorrect too), so we're wondring if you might have some sort of hidden agenda against this great club ? Have you not been lucky enough to gain membership ?" Nope. Never applied, never would. Am I 'anti' ? Only anti any membership application process that's based on the opinion of the owners of a club as to whether they find you visually appealing. But as previously said. I'm sure that gives an ego boost to those they deem worthy and also makes them feel in some way powerful and important, getting g to decide who is suitable and who not. Curious as to what I've said that's been 'factually incorrect'. I have no hidden agenda. I'm openly vocal (as seen in this post) against the concept of filtering members based on what they look like, whether it's this club or any other. Nor am I bitter - why would I be? Having visited many clubs over the years, some still running and some no longer, including Cupids, Chams, Xtasia, Jaydees, Libs, AbFabs, VA, The Office, Bath Swingers, The Lodge, Exeter Swingers, Angels, Decadents and Secrets......not one has needed to base membership on aesthetics to offer an enjoyable night out. I guess some folk just don't like mingling with those they deem unattractive. Must be horrible for them. Anyhoo. Merry Xmas. A | |||
"Althought the OP was asking about Le Boudoir club only, it seems that others whom were unable to gain Le Boudoitnmembership have hijacked the thread for some reason and other clubs have been mentioned. Penthouse Playrooms being one that was mentioned. We have been to PP a number of times too, and had a great time. It really is a great club. So, just to add to the positive feedback of PP, we'd like to say it really is a great place to go if you are not accepted at Le Boudoir. Perhaps we'll see you there one night ! xx" We did answer the OP question. We have never been to Le Boudoir (see previous post as to why,not sour grapes we were accepted when we applied). We have been to somewhere around 20 to 30 clubs now around the country and a few abroad and the three that stand out to us as being of a extremely high class are Liberty Elite and VA with Townhouse close behind those two. That doesn't mean people attending those clubs are going to have a good night as it it the down to those visiting on the night and the individuals in question. We have had some cracking nights at Club F, Attic, No3 for example which are perhaps not as high class in decor but we enjoyed our visits immensely. | |||

"Hi. Just looking for a bit of advice please. We are unsure of what kind of photo to send in for the membership process. So we have to be clothed, naked, dressed up, or will normal daywear be acceptable? Sorry for the basic question but we are first timers and would like to visit at some point in the next few months. Any other help on what it’s like would be greatly appreciated too. Have read bits and bobs in this thread" It's a while since we became members, but from memory I think we sent in non nude full length pics. Probably best to ask the club what they need. You couldn't meet a nicer couple than the owners, am sure they would be helpful. Good luck with it. We went to the Pre NYE party on Dec 30th and had an amazing night. The club was packed full of nice sexy fun people. | |||

"They accepted us so the bar can’t be that high… " You’re very acceptable! We just got membership too and are going next Saturday! | |||
