Newcastle and Gateshead

I'm going to pull out something that you wrote... because i think it is rather telling..

" If you read my profile you'll see that I'm interested in a rapport with people. I'm not going to get that at a swingers club. Nor would I in a vanilla club of course. "

so speaking as someone who does go to clubs to someone who has never been to a club, can i ask as to why you think there is no rapport going on at swinging clubs.... i think there is a misconception going on here

what do you think happens with a lot of the popular guys... people just dragged them by the cock off somewhere!!

I think a lot of the guys who do go will tell you it helps if you do build rapport with people....

I am personally not interested in playing with people that i haven't spoken to, or have some type of feel for

"What does attract me to a swingers club is to see people into the swinging scene going about there thing.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news for you.... but for a lot of people at clubs or outside of them... its as much about the socialising and building a rapport (you used the word first) as it is about the playing element......

"...

But who in their right mind would pay £40 just to get into a pub?

THAT is the issue.

It's NOT ok to penalise guys by making them pay more to get into clubs. Everyone should pay the same.

The club wouldn't be overrun with men, just limit the number of guys allowed in. Simple.

I think managing numbers with a guest list is a much better idea than deterring people with high prices.

How I see it,from reading the comments on forums is, couples don't like single men in numbers clogging up their clubs. So,simplistic view if it-as I'm a simple woman-stop single men from attending and charge couples enough money to keep the clubs in profit. Single men could use their money to hire an escort,you can chat with escorts too before fucking them

I get that some men don't agree with the pricing and I get that some think that "for 40 quid I expect sex" some do.

I go to clubs as I like to socialise before getting into a room with someone

Some men don't get this and don't understand about personal safety.

I'd happily pay to get in some clubs Nd I do often.

Why

As I like the club the facilities

Or,give single people their own night,charge everyone the same,don't limit single men,up to capacity of course,make it bi friendly and they can get their money's worth from each other. Simple solution really

On certain nights vet the single men so only the hot ones get in,don't charge them or the single females and let the couples pick up the tab. I've got so many great ideas

I like to build up a rapport over time not just one night in a club. Yes you have to start somewhere of course. I'll concede I worded it wrong. What I meant was i don't feel that a club is the right environment for me to start that process off. I'd just be going for a giggle if you understand me. Of course your right I haven't been and I could be completely wrong and have the best night ever. My point is simply that the cost is too high for me personally to take that chance. It's simply not something I'm too fussed about.

Please dont worry about breaking anything to me. I'm a grown man.

Then many couples wouldnt go. I know we dont go to some clubs on certain days as you pay per person instead of as a couple.

you could limit single guys as much as you want but I know quite a few places that put the couples and single ladies prices up, and they couples and single ladies just went elsewhere.

So you still end up with a club full of guys.

The club wouldn't be overrun with men, just limit the number of guys allowed in. Simple.

And therein lies the problem. From reading a number of these threads, one thing has become clear - there are a very large number of women and couples who know that they have the economic power over the clubs, because the clubs need them to attend, and are perfectly happy to exploit that power. Over and over again I've seen couples and single women say that they simply won't go to a club if they don't get discounted entry.

It's been pointed out, repeatedly, that this is simply the market at work. For clubs, customers are a commodity. Men are in the greatest supply, therefore they have the least value and can be charged the most.

That is indeed the market at work. That doesn't make it right. At the end of the day, if someone won't attend unless they get a discount, they're saying they'd rather see the clubs close than pay their own way.

I'd pay a nominal fee to get into a club. Any more and id just go to a club that let's ladies in for a nominal fee. If the first club closes i wouldn't lose sleep over it.

Certain single males may be priced out of certain clubs on certain nights!

If you really want to go to that club on that night, as has been said, save up for it. If you think the price is too high, don't go. I'm sure plenty of other single males will take your place. If enough don't go then a price change drop just happen in future.

To say that single males are being priced out of all clubs is just pure rubbish. Yeah some clubs may well charge you £40-£60 or maybe even more to attend and you might even have to pay membership on top of that as well. Nobody is forcing anyone to pay those sort of prices though.

Take a look through the forums and at swingers clubs web sites. Some offer Free membership/discounted nights/themed nights and socials where membership isn't needed and lots more.

I've been to clubs as a single male and only paid £5 to get in and also plenty of times only £10. £15-£20 is about average and I don't find that bad for a decent night out with people who as a rule have the same sort of mindset as me.

Instead of just whining and saying how hard done by us single males are, do some research and make an effort and you can get into a fair few clubs in different areas for a reasonable amount.

If I think a club isn't worth what they're charging on a certain night, then I don't go to it. I might go on a night when it seems more reasonable price wise or I'll just go to a club that I think is priced right FOR ME!

Several people have said that single men should budget to pay the higher entrance prices. So far, none of them have said why is right that they should have to budget for a higher price.

I think you're over thinking this...the vast majority of couples that we know just don't think in those kinds of terms...they don't break it down to the fact they they're "happy to exploit their economic power", they just want to go to a place they can afford, where they can mix and potentially play with the kind of people they're looking to mix and play with, in surroundings that are conducive to the kind of play they want...it never even occurs to us that we want anyone or expect anyone to subsidise us and neither do any of our friends...

Well then let's hear this silent majority speak. So far, the majority who've spoken in threads on this subject have been the ones saying that they won't go to clubs if they have to pay more, that they have the power, that they're the ones the clubs need and that single men should shut up and take what they're given.

It's called a loss leader. Some people won't go to a club when there are single men there. Having a night without them can bring in new customers, who may then return on other nights helping to bring in single men. I'd also note that some clubs increase the price for couples on 'no single men' nights. Abfabs, for instance, charges a couple £30 on Fridays, when single men are allowed in, and £50 on Saturdays, when they aren't.

Of course, I could be wrong. Perhaps the clubs do make a profit on couple and single woman entry fees, and the men are just being shamelessly gouged.

Vote with your feet if it means so much to you. If I was single I would go to clubs which I thought was best for me. Albeit I am in quite a good financial position but if the shoe was on the other foot your damn right I would begrudge it.

Luckily however I'm kinda of a big deal.

You still haven't explained why it should be better value for a couple or woman than for a man? As I've said before, the complaint isn't that men have to pay £X, it's that they have to pay £X more than couples or women.

As I've said before, if the price difference was intended to control the number of single men, it's been an abject failure. If it worked, there would be no need for clubs to have limited places for single men, with guest lists that fill up well in advance.

If you're concerned about the number of single men attending a club, then the way to resolve that is to limit the number of single men you allow in. It's simple, and it works. As a justification for the difference in pricing it simply doesn't hold water

I think you have missed the point. The high price is not used as a control to limit single men. A "f**k off, we are full", works much better

The high price charged for single men is to balance the books. The number of single women attending is a fraction (1:5, at best) of the number of single men attending. And this is when entrance is free for women. This number is likely to decrease, certainly not increase, if clubs started charging single women

Take the following scenario:

20 single men x £40 = £800

4 single women x £0 = £0

Total = £800

The club will need to charge single women and single men £33.33 each to maintain the £800 total. And this is assuming that the number of single women attending does not fall. The single men will be better off by £6.66

It is quite possible that the club will make more money as the number of single men will increase marginally but at the same time, the number of single women attending will decrease, worsening the ratio

Now hands up all who are in favour

I haven't missed the point - what you've said is exactly what I've said on the 'part 1' thread of this discussion - that many couples and single women won't pay the true cost of their admission and insist that single men pay it for them. I don't question the economies of it, just the morality.

The number of single men will increase irrespective of whether the number of single women decreases or not which will up the ratio to perhaps 1:7 or maybe even worse

So the guys will save £6.66 for even stiffer competition. I am in favour as my choice and chances will increase but your choice and chances will decrease

Thinking with a cool head, do single guys want to save £6.66 each so that the numbers attending goes from:

Men 20

Women 4

to:

Men 28

Women 4

The clubs are really doing you guys a favour by encouraging women to attend. It is in your interest as otherwise men will pay ~15% less but more will end up with a 100% loss, as it were

Josie, you're aiming that reducing the price for single men means more single men will attend. That will only happen in the club allows it - even on current prices, clubs that limit single men are today oversubscribed. The only impact that lowering the price for single men would have is that the club would have to reduce its margins or increase the prices for women and couples to compensate - which brings us right back to the question of single men either subsidising everyone else, or just being gouged by the clubs.

I can easily afford to pay £35.00. Whether I pay £0.00 or £35.00, my odds of having fun are always 100% (or nearly always)

But even with the existing ratios, I see the 'zombies' at the clubs simply 'tailing' the women but never getting any fun. My paying £35.00 and you saving a fiver will increase the 'zombie' population

The clubs will have to permit more single men to attend as the number of single women attending will fall. To a club the (hypothetical) £800 matters, and not what combination of genders makes up that total

I can easily afford to pay £35.00. Whether I pay £0.00 or £35.00, my odds of having fun are always 100% (or nearly always)

Why? Why is the club going to increase the number of single men it allows in, if there's no financial loss from keeping the number the same?

I was answering your statement that the number of men would increase regardless of whether the number of women falls, and therefore argued on the basis that the number of women wouldn't fall. If, as you're now saying, the number of women WILL fall of they're charged more, we yet again come back to the issue of women and couples demanding subsidised admission.

I am not demanding anything. Like some of the men who do not want to pay £nn.nn more than what they think is reasonable (or affordable) and therefore 'vote with their feet', women who too have similar financial constraints will vote with their feet

Nobody will win, unless the guys saving £6.66 on the current £40.00, is a worthwhile saving for an even more skewed ratio

It is not the club being moral or immoral. The club is a business and needs to cover its overheads and make a reasonable profit for its owners. They are using a tried and tested business model. This business model (with slightly better ratios) works in niteclubs too

There is a West End club which lets me in for free before 23:00 but charges me £20.00 after. For guys, there in no 'early-bird' rebate; they pay £20.00 no matter what time they arrive

I guess one could argue that this niteclub is using women as 'bait' so that guys see a club packed full of women and think that their chances of 'scoring' have increased. Sorry, but that is how humans (in fact most species) behave and nothing is going to change this behaviour

Does it cost more to run a swingers club than a standard nightclub?

If it's the same then price the same.

If it's slightly more expensive, say perhaps an extra license required then charge slightly more.

You may not be demanding anything, but there are plenty of people who are, by stating that they'll refuse to attend clubs where they don't get a discount. I agree that the clubs aren't doing anything wrong (unless they really are just gouging single men), it's their customers that I think are doing something wrong. I know that women and couples can 'vote with their feet', I just think that it's wrong for them to do so - they should be willing to pay the cost of their own admission, not using their position of power to extort a reduced price. The fact that nightclubs use similar pricing strategies just gives me another reason why I don't go into them.

I don't know the answer to that but a cocktail at the niteclub I go to starts from £8 and I am usually not the one buying these for myself and staying alone the entire night

So do factor in those costs when heading to a niteclub to 'get lucky'

Still no guarantees, in fact, less chance for a single guy at a niteclub if the intention is end the night by having sex

I think that in this golden age of equality, everybody has a right to vote with their feet. It is not the exclusive domain of single men, who if I have read this thread correctly, are already doing so

In a typical month, I attend 8 different venues; 4 are swingers clubs where I typically spend £20 entrance (2 charge me £10 each, 2 are free); 4 are niteclubs where I typically pay a total of £40 as entrance (half the time I get there late). So, I spend approx £60.00 per month on entrance

Now, increase my costs at all swingers venues to £35.00 per visit. I will either have to increase my budget to £180.00 or decrease my entertainment by cutting down the number of swingers clubs to one per month and 3 niteclubs per month. Do you think I would be immoral or demanding if I did the latter?

I don't think anyone is demanding anything. If anyone is, then it is the single men demanding that their entrance must be lowered by swinging club owners whilst maintaining the gender balance. This is clearly not going to happen. Not in a swingers club, not in a niteclub and not on a date. And it is not because club owners are greedy or because women and couples are demanding; it is because of what the other lady said

No, it isn't. The fact that women have in the past, and still are, treated badly by some men doesn't justify your attitude. The correct response is to rectify the problem, not lash out at any man who comes within range in an indiscriminate search for revenge.

The fact that there are a lot of men around here does not justify treating them as valueless and interchangeable. People are people and should be treated with respect until they demonstrate that they don't deserve it.

I do agree with what you are saying. I do not believe that you should have to spend more for the same or similar products and services than me. Just as you should not get paid more for doing the same job and hours as I do

But businesses are entities and cannot be asked to consider moral issues. Where they do pretend to address issues of morality or equality, it is usually (not always) to either position their brand better or to have a larger margin

Case in point is car insurance. Insurance companies have 'equalised' premiums for men and women. Statistically, women are safer drivers. However, I now pay the same as you but you are not paying less either!

Given all the complaints I've seen, I can't help wondering if one way to do it wouldn't be to reduce the number of single men admitted.

Beyond that... I don't know. I'll gladly admit to being a bit of a utopian on the subject. I think everyone should pay the same at clubs, but then I also think there should be more women and couples on the scene instead of all the single male 'giz a fuck' chances.

I understand the economic realities, as much as I hate them, and I know things aren't likely to change in the near future however much I'd like them to. Really, all I want to see is a more general acknowledgment that the current situation, though unavoidable, isn't fair, rather than the attitude of "you're a single male, suck it up" and the Fabio chorus of BUDGET!BUDGET!BUDGET!

And I would pay more if asked to but then in common with the men, I too will have to limit my excursions. I would extrapolate that similar constraints will be imposed by many other women on themselves

Since a reduction in charges will increase the number of men wishing to attend, clubs will have to impose limits

However, the number of women attending will, invariably, fall and to maintain a reasonable ratio, clubs will have to limit the number of single men attending even further

There will be no reduction in overheads and therefore clubs will yet have to increase charges for everyone, which will result in even fewer women attending and .....

You can see the extent of the problem which club owners face (and no, I am not a club owner)

I don’t think there is an easy solution as the problem isn’t created by club owners or attendees. The problem simply exists because there are fewer sexually uninhibited women in the world

I'd also note that some clubs increase the price for couples on 'no single men' nights. Abfabs, for instance, charges a couple £30 on Fridays, when single men are allowed in, and £50 on Saturdays, when they aren't.

Of course, I could be wrong. Perhaps the clubs do make a profit on couple and single woman entry fees, and the men are just being shamelessly gouged."

I'd also think that they would reduce the price for single men if they had a single men only night....

When I was single I didn't mind paying the higher price.. it helps to reduce single male numbers, which in turn made it a better night for me.

Now I'm part of a couple, we prefer couples only nights, and are more than happy to pay a higher price for that... we wouldn't be willing to pay that higher price for a mixed night.

THAT is the issue.

It's NOT ok to penalise guys by making them pay more to get into clubs. Everyone should pay the same.

The club wouldn't be overrun with men, just limit the number of guys allowed in. Simple.

It is simple if the club owners don't mind watching their profit plummet. They will have the same clientele attending but take considerably less money from the single men. We live in a capitalist society where it is essential to make a profit or you will fail.

If you reduced the price for single men, it would mean more single men would attend, deter couples from going, so eventually there would end up all single men and no couples, so effectively a single men only night....

Or have a singles of night and everyone pays the same price..

Which would effectively be a single men of night...

But, hey, you've got your reduced single men price...

Don't look at it that single men are charged mire, look at it that couples get a discount in order to attract them in in nights when single men attend.

The original question was "are single guys being priced out of clubs?"

Anyone who actually goes to clubs, rather than just talks about it on here, knows they are full of single guys. There is no shortage of single guys at clubs, so the answer is NO.

If the next question is "is it fair that single guys pay more?", life isn't fair, deal with it. If you want to pay in then go, if it's too much don't go. If you really champion equality open your own club and charge everyone the same - good luck with that.

"Continue here, its interesting what you all think about it

Swinging is the biggiest sex industry now in the UK & they have taken over where the adult sites left off with single guys.

As a webmaster myself my main aim is getting in the guys otherwise i wouldn't have a business & i am upfront with that, glossing it all over & charging silly amounts for single guys at parties is no different as it nets the swinging industry a small fortune.

A single person eats/drinks less than a couple so why charge double for their party entry, its easier for the guys to go to an organised gang bang/bukkake where they are guarantied sex for the same money as the two parties are no different in terms of money.

Yes couples are sometimes put off by loads of single guys so why not have different party nights to cater for single guys too without having to use the same old excuse to charge them more...

not what I ve said fun is open to all and I certainly welcome single guys to swinging clubs but it all costs money so if someone aint happy best to move on and find a cheaper pastime that's my opinion

I've stopped going to clubs as a single woman, unless I'm meeting friends for a catch up like FFFF because I prefer to play with single men. The dynamic between a single woman and a couple can be tricky becuase im not Bi in its truest form.

By not paying, or paying a minimal amount, I sometimes feel like I'm just bait.

Getting really pee'd off with single guys very, very close at certain clubs, and asking my partner if they can play, rather than me - we have just decided not to go to them anymore, and only go to one or two we feel comfortable in - they are a little more pricey (yes, I am on topic!). I was curious though, a few weeks ago, as to how easy it is to follow someone - not as easy as it looks, guys, timing and personal space and all - gave me a new perspective on single guys. Hats on on that respect! Pepper

I would personally feel very hard done by if I was a club going single guy but with that as has been pointed out before, supply and demand.

You could always club together (pardon the pun) and take a club to court for discrimination and see what happens. Most likely outcome is you would win... clubs would get overrun with single guys... couples and single ladies would stop going and it would turn into a cockfest and close down... but I may be wrong.

Wow - as a single guy who goes to a fair few clubs I can happy say I'm prepared to pay the price to have a (mostly) decent mix of clientele. Well done to the owners and managers of those clubs for all your efforts to make your clubs work.

But what his thread shows is that virtually everyone on here has an innovative pricing model for a successful new type of club. So I guess we should be looking forward to a load of new clubs opening soon?

Otherwise it's just like kids complaining that their sweets cost too much...

Why?"

Because many single women prefer to meet single guys rather than couples! And many of the ladies in couples like mmf, mmmmf or more! IMHO single guys are just as vital to swinging as couples, single fems, and tv's/ts's are! In my opinion swinging would be far poorer, and not viable, without any group! Xx

It's NOT ok to penalise guys by making them pay more to get into clubs. Everyone should pay the same.

The club wouldn't be overrun with men, just limit the number of guys allowed in. Simple.

At last someone thinks like me clubs can and should manage amount of single guys coming in but wont because they can get away with it for all the couples etc who moan re single men fact is for clubs its them making club money by charging as they do.

Quite simple question for those who moan re single men at clubs are you willing to regularly pay say 30 quid a shot and pay a membership fee too as what happens at some clubs.

As this poster put on what planet is it ok to charge single men such high price.

Sits waiting for all the threads from guys moaning that they can't get into clubs because the quota of guys is already full.

It is so easy to try and set business plans for club owners from behind a keyboard. There are enough people who have whinged on the many threads on this subject to get together and finance a club run on price equality. Somehow it hasn't happened yet though.

again many people miss the point of why prices are the way they are, its got nothing to do with charging men more, its about concessions, so for eg, a club works out its entry needs to be £40, that is what single guys pay because theres an abundance of them wanting to attend, couples and single females are under represented, so they offer concessions to try and attract more through the doors, much like a special offer at a supermarket, although not quite the same, which is why on other nights the entry changes depending on what the night is aimed at and which are the under represented parties.

Ok I've read numerous posts on this...

Let's just turn this on it's head...

So, where exactly, are all the clubs where single guys don't visit because the prices are too high??

From what I can see the good clubs have waiting lists for single guys.

So where is the issue?? Really? I just don't get it??

It's been debated multiple times - it's legal. So the only other issue is an moral one.

Again - why would any business that literally has people queuing up for their services want to change???

If you all feel that strongly about it - don't go! - stay in, have a wank, light your pipe and admire your resolution to sticking to your principals.

Then if everyone does the same you'll all then be able to join a waiting list with even more people on (because it's now cheaper) and be safe in the knowledge you're now sat at home with less chance of going, but if you ever do, you'll be paying £20 less.

Now, I don't want to wee on anyone's parade but while you're at home boycotting your local club, waiting for all the other single males to do the same... Other Single males will be going and paying their money and having a night out with like minded folk.

We love having single males in clubs, so please don't think we are against them, but not once when chatting in a club have we heard a guy moaning about the price. Normally they say how much fun they are having.

To be honest we'd walk away from someone moaning in a club anyway, we're there to have a laugh and a bit of fun.

Going to a club is not a right, it's a luxury, the same as a yaht, some people can afford luxuries, some can not. That is just life. By moaning about it, when in reality it's not a huge amount of money, doesn't help your online image.

A club is a business. Why on earth would it reduce profit to be 'fair'. Where does it stop? Reduce the price to £20+ and there will still be people who can't afford it, what about them? If I were to list the things that I would love to do, or own, but can't afford then it would be a very long list. Being able to afford to go to a club is not a right.

Ok, so how is that any different to someone not going on holiday because they have kids and can only do it in term time at over inflated prices? It's still the exact same product but different pricing due to supply and demand.

It's not like we're talking about denying people medical treatment here.

And let's just look at the figures, let's say it's £100/year membership and £40 a time entry. Let's say someone goes once every 2 months ( which is more than we have recently!) that's £340/year or less than £30/month.

I'd suggest if someone is struggling to find £30 a month towards a night out they have more pressing priorities than going to a club - swinging or otherwise.

I honestly don't care what they pay - if clubs decided we all pay the same, then fine, I'll still have the exact same choice as any single male out there whether to pay it it not.

but it would still be £40 for the guys, they would just put the price for single women and couples back to full price which is £40, so the same guys still wouldnt be able to afford to go, this is the point many miss, its not putting the price for men up that clubs do, its making a concession on the other prices because not so many of those attend on certain nights so its an incentive to try and attract them, whereas there is always plenty of men so they dont need to offer a concession.

Well saying not going to a club because you can't afford it is like not going on holiday as you can't afford it is a silly argument.

Why?

Because going on that holiday or whatever else in the list is the same if you are single or a couple and that is what the debate is about.

It should be the same price for all.

If it was the same for all, then the single guys prices could be lowered.

Instead of, free for single women, £20 couples and £40 single males (£60 total), why not just have £15 per head (would still work out to £60) fairer to all as all paying the same.

but then the club is losing out if they manage to fill to capacity, the reason they do it the way they do is to say our entry is £40 but you can get in for £20 its an incentive, so at the minute they can fill there capacity with single males but not couples or single females, if they were to charge every one the same the club would lose out in the long run, do you not think club owners will have researched all this.

Hmm they manage to do ok and normally fill to capicity when it's just a couples night so I don't think that is the problem.

When it's a couples night, If it was the same price for all/per head, they would actually make more anyway if was say charging £15 per head instead of £20 per couple.

I agree that single guys do get the rough end of the stick with entrance prices, however I can see why the clubs do it.

Also having seen many posts and had conversations with people about parties/gangbangs/guest lists and having helped organise one myself last year for the clubs to limit the amount of single guys is great idea in principle but I think they would have to book and maybe pre pay to secure their place) everyone could do this not just the guys mind you) as a lot of people say they are going to attend then don't bother.

If you go to Tesco, they don't charge you more for things if you're a single man. And you don't get things cheaper because you're a couple.

Not one to normally get involved in these but I had to with this one! I'm sorry to say that morally wrong or not the fact stands that whether or not you attend a club for the social side or the sex, the chances are that as a man you would be very hard pushed to get more than one or two 'like minded' women to come socialise like this with you anywhere else, were as, as a single women I could very easily arrange to have ten like minded men come straight to my house (not a brag, fact of life). The unfortunate fact for you guys is we have other options to get a night like those hosted by clubs, most men especially single ones don't have that option. The clubs know this and need us to keep their business running.

It was a bit tongue in cheek. I don't need a discount to afford a £40 night out, but I appreciate that I work very hard as a freelancer to be able to afford nice things.

I don't have a problem with subsidising those who are on reduced incomes. Disability, benefits, students. That's good business sense, because it means that you're getting their loyalty for when they do have money.

I find it distasteful to charge someone more based on a bit of skin though. And I dislike all the implications that has for women who are being used as 'bait'.
