I wonder how under equality law clubs can get away with charging single men lots more then any other type of person.
I have seen some clubs charge women £10 and the men £50 to get in.
Now this is one of the main reasons I dont go to clubs, and I want to challenge the status quo on this.

There have been several conversations about this over the last few months and all of your answers are on the forums. Just type in your title into the search box and you will get loads of threads.
It's legal if a club is a 'Private Members Club'. The reasons why clubs do it are on the other forums, saves going through it all again here!

good for you..... you'd lose, but good for you anyway!!
if you do a search, you'll see there there is a "positive discrimination" clause that states charges can be differed for groups that would be under represented otherwise....... |

Haha go and try to challenge.
What'll happen is that single women and couples won't go because it's too expensive.
There's plenty of guys who are willing to pay the fees however. They make it cheaper for the women and couple who we guess you probably would like to play with? The market can support the fees they charge so they do. |

Yes, very unfair
You go and start a swingers club where you charge men and women exactly the same and couples twice as much (because they are two people) and let us know how you got on |

most of the problems that happen ion clubs involve single men and therefore it is only fair that single men or men who attend clubs on their own pay more than single women and couples either to pay for the bouncers or to pay for the time lost by the staff who have to deal every year with some single blokes who act like idiots , time is money . |

" Would you prefer if the charging policy was amended and the club was full of blokes . At least the high charges keep the ratios in proportion. |

i think what a lot of guys think would happen under price equality is that single male prices would come down.....
nah!!!
would would likely happen is that couples and single womens prices would end up going up to join that of men....
and when that happened, and the amount of couples/women going dropped... men would still complain about this time the numbers not justifying the prices |

"I do wonder if the higher price paid, heightens the expectancy of play."
To be honest we have found in the clubs that charge more for single guys, that we have met many with this attitude. Yet clubs where they let more singles in, but at a lower price they have been much better behaved x |

I've been to clubs as a single guy where it's been free, similar prices to couples/single females, and some where the standard pricing structure is for a higher fee for single male entry.
There's been no difference in behaviour standards at any - the odd idiot but generally most men are as well behaved as the couples and single women.
An arse will be an arse regardless of how much they've paid to be that arse in a club.
As for the expectancy argument? The same is true. If someone's perception is that they're entitled to something because they've paid an entry fee then there'll be little difference in attitude whether it's £15 or £50.
Add the fact that I've seen poor behaviour from as many couples and single women as men and I struggle to see any link between pricing and behaviour.

It is annoying for me when I pay a much higher price at a club when the playrooms are busy with swingers who want privacy "DO NOT ENTER". On the other hand I have always found some open play areas busy at some point during the evening at Abfabs even if it is crowded by other single men. But I generally like clubs because it has an erotic atmosphere. |

So people shouldn't be allowed to play in private at a club because you've paid more?

" . What do you think your challenge would achieve ?. No one is compelled to attend clubs ..
The beach in Cap d Agde is a good example of the problems which low charges can cause .You see literally forty or fifty men chasing one couple .
At least in clubs where men pay a lot more it keeps the ratios of couples to men reasonable . |

Bet you wouldn't be complaining if it was you enjoying yourself behind a DO NOT ENTER sign.
Why is privacy a bad thing? |

LOL I hate this attitude just because you're in the club doesn't mean you have a right to see other people play people are entitled to do as they want in a club, in the flip side however I've seen both couples & single ladies make this complaint too x |

I think there is a huge difference between wanting privacy and just not wanting people to join in... and if that frustrates you, then thats not really on them..... |

As you have seen on this thread already. You are not going to win this long running argument. When even single guys react with such glee that your wasting your time, you really know your buggered. Two choices. Vote with your feet or suck it up. Sad to say but thats the way it is. |

As what happened with the pension age. Women used to get their pension at 60, men 65. A legal challenge was made hoping for men to be able to draw their pension at 60. Didn't quite go to plan: women now have to wait until they're 65! |

Think it through fella. What you really want to do is go to the Club that charges single guys the most so you will have less competition
Why would you want to go to a Club that was mainly full of single guys? |

Think about what you would spend on a vanilla night out, and the enjoyment you have on these nights. Then compare it to paying as a single guy at a swing club and the fun you may have....Then you can gauge if you have had value .. |

I think you'll find it's more than 65 for all now! And probably rising even higher. |

In an ideal world men would collectively decide to stop subsidising clubs for couples and single women by not going.
But when it comes to sex men have a dog eat dog (or dog eat pussy) mentality.

Seriously this is another thread in many same sounding threads. The answering party is right...Saturday night lads all pissed "Come on lets go to the club, it's only £10 and we get a shag"... Sorry it's not a brothel but a swingers club..If lucky you as single guy get invited by a couple or a girl to join in otherwise maybe a watch and not more.
With an attitude shown by some single guys answering thank God some clubs limit the amount of single guys entering and ask for membership. Also that they don't let in pissed people in (couples and singles) as then we may as well stay at home and be safe and happy. |

German, Spanish, French, and Dutch clubs are no different, as is probably the rest of Europe if not the world.
Prices vary from club to club and event to event. For example: We regularly go to a German club for their "Mr Surplus" event held on one Sunday every month. The prices are single woman 10€ Couple 25€ single guy 60€. You have to pre book and the limit is just over 200 people in total with around 50 single guys. This event is booked solid until into next year.
On the other side of the coin it does tend to cause one problem.
Like most German clubs the entrance fee includes free bar and a very nice buffet so some single women and couples go just for somewhere to eat and drink on the cheap (not us of course ) Think about it for 25€ (or 20€ if you get the premium member discount from a German site we use) you can have a very nice Sunday lunch, free drinks all day for 2 people, and fun if you want it. |

At least when he wins the clubs will be packed full of single guys . I assume that is what he wants.
Maybe he should visit Cap d Agde and see the results of equality in action . On the beach you can see 20 or 30 men chasing after couples . I would not even bother trying . At the Saunas numbers are controlled by charging single men more and provided you adopt the right attitude and have the necessary physical characteristics , you can have a very good time .
I would not bother visiting any club if men were charged the same entrance fee as couples or ladies . It would just be a complete waste of time .

He's right though.
Single guys are subsidising females and couples.
The only reason this continues, is coz single guys let it happen.
Question is why.
why does a single guy pay 50-70 to get in a club?
Til the desperados learn some self respect -the rip off will continue |

I make an assessment of whether the entry fee is reasonable. Why are those who pay these entry fees desperados . Some of the experiences in the clubs in Cap d Agde are those which you will remember for the rest of your life . I would have no intention of attending a club packed with single guys because of the low entry fees. |

if that is what you think of people who go to clubs... then to be honest clubs are not for you... simple as that....
all the price are doing are not actually stopping people from going... but from going as often as they wish
people can save if they really want to go to a club... just like you would do if you wanted those extra special clothes or shoes... just like you would if you wanted a new tv or dvd or stereo or mobile phone.... just like you would when you have a holiday and holiday spending money!
and besides.... i haven't been to a club where they ask for 50-70 pounds for entrance...... that has absolutely been exagerated....
the comparison i make on the saturday night I go to clubs would be how much i would spend doing something else on that same saturday.. going out into town, meal, drinks, more drinks, taxi home ect.... and compared to that the club visits i make are actually reasonable....

Most clubs limit the amount of single men allowed in. Charging more for men doesn't mean it will be over run....it just means clubs charge men more. |

Last time we was in cap d adge some clubs offered couples free drinks to go in and were charging single guys 70 euros . Once in the single guys still outnumbered the couples at least 4 to 1 and to be honest were a bit of a nuisance |

"I do wonder if the higher price paid, heightens the expectancy of play.
To be honest we have found in the clubs that charge more for single guys, that we have met many with this attitude. Yet clubs where they let more singles in, but at a lower price they have been much better behaved x "

Because otherwise the clubs would be saturated with men, they have to balance the ratios out so that's why the high costs. I don't go to clubs for this reason either 60 to get in to some clubs, to much lol. |

Townhouse - milf Monday.
Usually the first Monday of every month - a tenner per fab profile - irrespective of gender!
Blackpool - the unit - hold many parties - all of which are a tenner per person!
These are the only 'fair' clubs/events I know of but I'm sure there'll be many more. It's just a matter of doing your research Hun!
The only way things will change is if single guys vote with their feet en made and stop going to clubs until pricing policies change!
Sadly though - this is unlikely to happen!
Also - unfortunately it is couples and single females who are in highest demand - so prices are fixed to reflect this! Single females - who are in short supply - are not charged at all in some clubs/parties!
Guys suffer because there are so many of them! Xx |

I wonder if that is actually more to do with the ratio's involved..... you are more likely to notice seeing one single guy misbehaving if there are only 6 or 7 there..... than if there is one guy misbehaving if there are 25 to 30 in....
after all... its still one person misbehaving.....
I still think the issue is more not single guys being priced out of going to clubs but those prices deny people from going as often as they want to...
I make bugdgetary decisions that allow me to go, other people may spend money on things that i dont...
so for some people to call other desperado's for going is harsh and unfair |

We run a club night we get between 80 and 120 people we strictly limit single to 15 we charge them £25 as single guys and there is a waiting list (we charge couples £20) and our point....
whatever amount you charge single guys if you restrict the numbers the places will be filled so if single guys choose not to go others will fill there place x |

so are you saying that as a single lady you have never taken advantage of the pricing differences????
really?????
ever?????
of course if you feel that way, and you stand by your principles of fair pricing you can just go to the events that you mentioned (in which case you are going to be limited) or next time you go on another then you can say:
"I think the pricing is unfair for single men... and as a step of solidarity I would like to pay the same price on every occasion I visit for here on in........"
I am sure they wouldn't say no as it is extra income........ |

But that brings a whole set of new problems. How do you manage the limit?
First come first in? So guys have to get there before opening and queue? What if they've travelled hours to then find they can't get in? What if the guys getting there early are the tears who misbehave?
Pre-booking? What if some don't show? This will prevent others getting in unless they live next door or are happy to sit in a pub round the corner I. A standby list.
And how do you know what limit to set? How do you know how many women/couples will attend to enable you to calculate a good ratio?
Even with the best efforts made, the right pricing and the perfect ratios - it can all easily go tits up.
If there was an easier way to manage ratios I suspect clubs would have cottoned on by now and adopted it. It's not like the issue of pricing hasn't been around as long as swingers clubs!

True.
Most clubs require visitors - whether single makes, females or couples - to be members before attending.
I've yet to see a club brave enough to turn a member away at the door - would make membership a bit pointless I guess and hard to justify.
The only clubs I've ever been to that have strict quotas have required some form of pre booking and payment. That way if the guy doesn't show they still get the money.
I still stand by the comment that if there was a simple, efficient way of managing ratios other than by pricing it would be the standard business model by now.

It does seem fair.
But if it worked wouldn't clubs be doing it now?
Look at any form of feedback re swinging clubs. How often do you read the words "there were far too many single women/couples" in comparison to "too many single guys".
I'm not saying it's fair. I'm not saying in an ideal world it shouldn't be a fixed price per head.
I'm simply saying that in all the years swinging venues have been open there's never been a move towards an even price structure. I wish the first club to try it good luck - and suspect that the feedback would be the same as I mentioned above - especially from single guys!!

Not in all cases. There are plenty who are not in the least bit interested in single women.
It's just that swinging clubs are like Fab or any other such website. There's a higher population of men to women, and in most cases couples too.

I still don't understand why it wouldn't work. Clubs can still limit the amount of men as they do now.
It is just about making more money from men who are quite happy to pay it. I don't see clubs changing that unless men decide they are not going to pay and the women and couples who want men in clubs complain there isn't any.

but there isn't taking into consideration that the same club may charge different prices on different nights to reflect what type of night it is..... so they can get the numbers they want in...
some people want to compare swinging prices to fet prices.... i for example compare how much a saturday night at a club costs compared to a saturday night out for me in a city centre...
there is a fair amount of the politics of envy going on.....if the principle is that strong for those making the complaints, then when they go to clubs, ask to pay what single men would pay!!! |

Uh, most clubs are wise to this. They expect if you arrive together and enter as a couple that you stay together and leave together.
I wouldn't take a total stranger into a club as a couple anyway. If he doesn't behave himself it will reflect badly on me.
I'm not risking my club membership to take someone to a club just so he can get in cheaper and clear off and do his own thing! |

I know what I expect to pay before I get there because I check the price before I go. If it's more that I want to pay, I don't go.
Going to a club is a rare thing for me though because there aren't any nearby. To go I need to pay for fuel, accommodation and meals as well as the cost of the club and drinks.
A night at a club can cost me hundreds of pounds.
I go when I can afford it.
I don't moan it's unfair that it's cheaper for people who live nearer to clubs. |

Only if they are dickheads. And if they are dickheads they are less likely to behave appropriately and less likely to get the fun they think they are entitled to.
I don't understand why men who want guaranteed action don't pay for it!
If I want a bottle of wine, I buy a bottle of wine. I don't enter a raffle in which I might win a bottle of wine.
Not that I'm suggesting anyone in a club raffles themselves off, just that if you want a guarantee of something, buy it, don't do something where there's a chance you'll get what you want and moan you're disappointed if you aren't lucky. |

I think the point most are missing is that it is nothing to do with fairness.
Single guys go to swinger clubs for one thing, to find either a single fem or couple to have sex with. The odd one's that go for the social side are a very rare exception.
Any club has to make so much money to survive and for the owners to earn something out of it. So a club decides it is going to be "fair" and introduces equal pricing. The result would be that the price for single guys would come down a bit but for couples and single fem's it would have to go up or the club would be seriously out of pocket. More single guys would probably be attracted but the number of couples and single fem's would reduce. After a while the ratio would be skewed towards a surplus of single guys and more couples an fem's would stop going. Final result, the owner turns it into a gay club or just puts the football on the TV or goes broke.
As someone said earlier a club in Cap d'Agde (Jeux de Mains) was giving free entry and a free drink to couples and charges single guys 60 or 70€ but is still top heavy with single guys.
It will never change and I really hope it doesn't, because that would be the end of swinger clubs.
BTW Fabio has made some very good points on this thread which some should take notice of. |

If we're going to compare true costs??
I'd put money on a larger percentage of couples and single women having kids than single men. (Yes there will be single dads I know - but proportionally less than single women).
So let's add childcare into the equation.
And why not travel costs?
And why not hotel rooms for those travelling?
And couples no doubt spend more at the bar than singles. And if staying over will have twice the meal costs?
Let's face it. It's likely to be a cold day in hell before a club is brave enough (or decides to run at cost rather than at a profit) to adjust its pricing policy and have a pure one person, one charge structure.
It's also likely to be the same cold day in hell that as many single women feel the urge to go to a club as single men. (I'll leave couples out of this argument as by their nature they don't imbalance the gender ratios.)
So will anything change anytime soon? More than likely not.
Many clubs don't charge outrageous prices for anyone to enter - single males included. If the cost to go anywhere is perceived to be too high then there's always the freedom of choice to not go. There are no guns held to heads. Yet week in, week out men go to clubs. Men have fun in clubs. Couples and single women have fun with men in clubs.
Just not every man. And not every man wants to go to a club or having been - return.
The argument re pricing has graced these forums before and will again. There's been no new suggestions and no change in attitude from the clubs.
There's never going to be a so
Ole solution. The way I see it it's like the common suggestion that there should be an automated 'no thanks' reply to stop people being perceived as rude. The common response is that people would then complain that an automated response would be the lazy way to deal with things and equally as rude - the 'solution' not in any way solving the problem.
If equal pricing increased the number of men attending then rather than the complaint being about pricing it would be that (even if the same number of couples and women attended) there weren't enough women and couples to cope with the higher number of male attendees, those men wouldn't be happy and wouldn't return. A solution again not solving a problem. Even with a limited number of men the liklehood (if the argument is to be believed that unequal pricing is purely a business mechanism to generate income) would be an increase in membership costs or bar prices to replace the lost income. The likely result being everyone getting pissed off and attending less, creating a circle of decreasing numbers and closing clubs.
If someone can come up with the much sought after solution then please do. I'm sure the club goers, club owners and even the forum mods would much appreciate it!

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum |
Is the pricing structure fair? Probably not, but the reasons for it have been discussed here and before many time.
But perhaps its the attitude of people that should change. If you go to a club expecting sex of course you will be disappointed at the price. But if you go expecting a good time, a varied evening (hot tubs, cinema etc) and, in some cases, food, then you're more likely to enjoy it.
Of course I take advantage of the reduced female charge for many clubs. I'd still go, just not as often. But as I found out last night, a night out with mates and food and beer can cost quite a lot more than what a male pays at some clubs.
The one thing I would definitely question is membership charges. There are many clubs I will never visit as I am not willing to pay a full years membership charge for one visit. So, as has been said above, as the charge doesn't suit me, I choose not to go. I don't stand at the counter moaning about it. |

" You can go into some of the clubs there and have nights which you will remember for the rest of your life . If you have a great night the entry charge is not unreasonable . No one is compelled to attend these clubs . Two couples I know used their couple status to negotiate free entry to them. Nothing in life is fair , you just have to make the most of what you have whether it be looks , education, attitude , money , career , or status . |

If you want guaranteed fun, go spend your money with women offering fun in exchange for money. That's not what swinging clubs are for!"
Oh my, why would you go to a club expecting fun? Always best to go with no expectations |

"An opinion doesn't equal a complaint
I'll hapilly change the word... the point is still the same
there is a fair amount of the politics of envy going on.....if the principle is that strong for those making the opinion, then when they go to clubs, ask to pay what single men would pay!!
practice what you are trying to preaching......
money where mouths are...
principles and convictions....
I just dont think as good a game as many people talk/complain/opine (you chose your word)... I just don't think they would actually go thru with it"
I don't see anyone preaching.
Maybe worth asking the question to couples and fems |

"I wonder how under equality law clubs can get away with charging single men lots more then any other type of person.
I have seen some clubs charge women £10 and the men £50 to get in.
Now this is one of the main reasons I dont go to clubs, and I want to challenge the status quo on this.
"
I really hope you win, I can get in for £10 and errrm, play with myself |

"I can see the excuses used but its still a blatant display of discrimination. "
*shrugs*
And?
If this is all men have to complain about they're doing alright, I think. Try being a woman and experiencing harassment from men on a regular basis and the you'll understand why rules like this exist. |

is it really discrimination to offer discounts to underrepresented genders, for eg, is it discrimination if a supermarket has a special offer on 1 type of coffee but not others because it isnt selling aswell as the others, top and bottom is, clubs arent breaking any laws re pricing structure and it works. |

There is a variety of reasons that it makes sense, firstly it filters out a lot of guys that think there getting a cheap easy lay which swinging is not about, firstly by paying a membership fee for a regular reduced visit fee s out a lot of numptys, as you wouldn't want to throw a large chunk of money away by being thrown out, some clubs have a free social period in the week where yes you get to see in the club and maybe a few first timers to the club but it's purely a _iewing, if you like the look and feel then you can go from there, there is to many guys that think by going to a club all the women or men are gagging to fulfil there needs, which it's not about unless a greedy night lol, it's about socialising and getting to know like minded people in a safe environment with the facility's too suit, if guys were the same price there would be ridiculous waiting lists, besides look at how much a concert ticket is ! You don't see many empty ones, |

Clubs in New York City charge single guys on the low end $100 up to $200. It's bring your own alcohol and the have a very small buffet.
The guys that tend to go are the over 40 crowd that can afford it. Most 40 and under people are in dance clubs . So what is the age group of men going to these clubs in the UK?
Wouldn't it be cheaper for men to just go out with regular friends. Enjoy a great night out and try to pick up a vanilla woman. If you have no luck , you can throw up a meet on fab And try to catch some d*unk stragglers from these clubs |

So would the same chaps who spend "quite a few bobs" going down town on a Fri and Sat wandering from bar to bar and only end up going home with a kebab bemoan the town centres .....I think not

I met a guy at a meet about 7 years ago who told me he NEVER paid full rate to go to clubs as a single man, and told me I was a moron for paying the money (which I did, very occasionally).
Since then I've negotiated (on here!) with two clubs that they would either let me in free or for £10. I daren't name the clubs on here, or they'd probably get a thousand requests for free entrance... but I've since learned that most male porn stars have the same agreement, you just need to be vaguely young, presentable or know people.
It's wrong that you should have to ask for a fair price but I suppose it's supply and demand... 80 hairy old blokes in for a tenner isn't going to attract the very thing they want (ie young attractive females). |

I only really go to places where they have equal pricing for everyone. I'm uncomfortable at the notion of being bait to get men to pay more. I'm also uncomfortable at being "reassuringly expensive".
I prefer pricing equality. It makes for a much better night and I've always found that everyone was better behaved too. |

This was certainly the experience of one of my local clubs when they tried equality pricing after a few weeks they got a bad rep for it being "all guys all the time" that members across the board twiddled down and they financially they never recovered and it's now no longer open |
