"Are these actual clubs,or more like privately organised parties ?? ![]() nope one club has full frontal pic needed for single guys another is posting that single guys need to send face pic and then wait to see if make the cut. These places will come crawling when cpls all get bored ans guys should avoid to see the clubs go bust but they won't. | |||

"Normally private events, sometimes in clubs, find it all rather pretentious. Some sort of power thing that makes them feel special lol" yep and this is from the clubs own site which is linked off Fabs "up to date photo from waist upwards (nude photos will not be necessary) and a few words about yourselves (this will help towards a successful application) ".... a certain country is excluding based on ethnicity and the whole is in up roar. So why are Fab supporting this ? | |||

"Are these actual clubs,or more like privately organised parties ?? ![]() I doubt a club who vets singLe men would go bust. In fact it would be a bonus for couples and single fems to have attractive single men. Those clubs that let any single males in (especially the pissed up after pubs shut mentality) are the ones that will be less attractive to genuine swingers. | |||

"Anyone noticed more clubs wanting face pics to choose if you can attend. Talk about elitism." It's not really about elitism, it's more of a safety element. I would much prefer visiting clubs that did this than ones that did not. If a club member, whether single man, woman or a couple were acting up in way that would deem them to have their membership revoked, it would be easier to remember who they were. Vetting isn't such a bad idea when it comes to safety for all people involved. | |||

"In our club called Jaydees we have just started to make sure that we have every guys id before they come along due to some of the disrespectful behaviour of some of the guys that were turning up. We used to go by verifications but found that unsuccessful, now by asking for their id beforehand we have managed to only get the nice respectful guys coming through our door. These are guys of any ethnicity, or size or looks. Some people might have the looks but its not always about the looks its the person inside that makes someone who they are, the nicer and funnier and friendlier someone is the better. I.d. also discourages bad behaviour. We also ask for couples and single ladies id too as we have had a couple of problems with couples. So its not just single guys. Now we don't get any problems so although membership is a right pain in the backside it is also very good for the safety of all our members. We hope this helps love Jaydee and Tracy xxx" Completely agree with this, and as a single guy, I have no problem with providing a face pic for safety/verification. It's just common sense. | |||

"Sadly its a sign of the times now. A lot of people are obsessed with beauty etc. I went back up to newcastle a while back and out was fake team and designer clothes everywhere. If i had to give a body shot pic before i could attend a club with Mrs I would never be allowed in as i carry extra weight. No fun for fatty it seems" Obsessed with beauty? Maybe people just like to fuck people they're attracted to?? Dont see anything wrong with vetting of any kind. For safety, looks or behaviour. Swinging is not a charity and being selective is not discrimination. I have seen a lot of people complain that they felt that they simoply were not attracted to people who went to many clubs...like it or not, people will desire people of a certain look when looking for the thing looks is probably one of the most important factors, NSA sex. | |||

"A face pic for security reasons wouldn't be a problem. A full nude or waist up we just wouldn't go, Shaz likes to pick her own guys to have fun with not play with guys a club thinks she might like ![]() Not at all. We are not always on here at the same time. We often speak for each other. I trust my partner to make financial decisions for us both, decisions about our children, decisions about many things and visa versa. So representing my views on a swingers forum is hardly a biggie. It what some couples do they communicate and understand each other intimately. If I was not sure then I would not say anything. | |||

We joined Le Boudoir before a recent trip to London and need face pics on the application. We are 40's , normal looking, and were accepted, so not sure if it is elitism or security to check the person turning up is the one who applied. | |||

It is not as if these are exclusive premises owned or even rented by the organiser for the evening And to top it all, the organiser, who is simply just another member of this site, will not only vet my photograph but will also pass it around to three strangers for approval Have heard some nonsense in my life but this is edging to become a prize-winner | |||

"I don't see the problem with this kind of vetting, whether it is for security, looks, body shape or age" Vetting for security I can understand. It's no different to having my passport checked before boarding a flight. However, being told that I have to conform to the owners' 'minimum standard of attractiveness' in order to even attend a particular club is bullshit. When most clubs host a BDSM night, they don't automatically exclude people who aren't into BDSM. They just ask that attendees bear in mind that most people at said event probably won't be looking for non-BDSM play. What I'm saying is: it's fair enough if I turn up at a club and no-one wants to play with me; that's the choice of the individuals concerned. What I object to is when the club owners decide a priori that I will not meet the preferences of their members, or that I will have nothing of interest to bring to the table. And no, you probably don't 'see the problem' with this situation...mainly because you're 'average' build, tall, aged between 35 and 50, and part of a couple. In other words, you're pretty much guaranteed to fit the bill of most of the so-called 'exclusive' clubs out there... | |||

"I have no issue with face pic its the body pic from waste up which is clearly picking on looks and discriminating" Perhaps they are trying to avoid the photoshopped images, i.e. The pics where the head has been superimposed on a body? We have seen a few of these. Maybe it's for ID purposes and to prove who you are when you turn up at the club. | |||

" Would you not rather go to a club where you suit almost everyone and everyone is your type? It would be a wasted night surely if you didn't find anyone attractive and paid a lot to get in? The owners try and avoid this by using their judgement and seeing if you're similar to their guest list. If it bothers you that much, don't go to one of these clubs. H x | |||

I disagree with clubs or parties having a set standard for how you look...who are they to say what everyone attending will find attractive? unless you're a brainwashed sheep judging everyone by current media or social media standards... | |||

The first piece of advice I was given when I got my name down for my first club night was 'don't go with the attitude of just looking to get laid. I didn't play with anyone that night, but I still spent several very pleasant hours mingling with the regulars and finding out about the scene. Not everyone goes to club nights just to get their end away, and a lot of clubs nights cost less than the entry to a regular nightclub or a round of drinks at the pub... | |||

What I'm saying is: it's fair enough if I turn up at a club and no-one wants to play with me; that's the choice of the individuals concerned. What I object to is when the club owners decide a priori that I will not meet the preferences of their members, or that I will have nothing of interest to bring to the table. And no, you probably don't 'see the problem' with this situation...mainly because you're 'average' build, tall, aged between 35 and 50, and part of a couple. In other words, you're pretty much guaranteed to fit the bill of most of the so-called 'exclusive' clubs out there... Would you not rather go to a club where you suit almost everyone and everyone is your type? It would be a wasted night surely if you didn't find anyone attractive and paid a lot to get in? The owners try and avoid this by using their judgement and seeing if you're similar to their guest list. If it bothers you that much, don't go to one of these clubs. H x" ![]() ![]() ![]() | |||

"Clubs are private they can do what they like. If they only want 20-something beautiful people they can do it. In that case we can't get in. It happens. No need for bees in bonnets. Most clubs are very inclusive, just go and have fun." ![]() | |||

"Anyone noticed more clubs wanting face pics to choose if you can attend. Talk about elitism. I don't see the problem with this kind of vetting, whether it is for security, looks, body shape or age Shame it only applies to the men though ![]() Yeah brain washed sheep...

"If you think vetting by photo-submission is harsh, you'll definitely want to avoid a swinger club in Paris called Les Chandelles. Its famous (infamous) for its tough door policy - if the chap on the door thinks you're ugly or fat, you're not getting in. On our second visit we witnessed a couple being turned away and the female bursting into tears. Not nice... Inside there were indeed plenty of 'attractive' people, but the scene on the door soured the experience so we left early, and won't be going back." hahaha when we went to Paris and researched clubs we looked into that place. We heard about the notorious door policy. Since we aren't 25 years old with Yves Saint Laurent contracts, we didn't bother. We went to another that was still hyper sexy, full of sexy people and had a great time. | |||

"Let's be honest. It's only ugly people feeling bitter. . . . It's like they want couples to be MADE to let them join in" And where, pray tell, did I or anyone else say that we want couples to be MADE to let us join in? As I said above, I simply wish to be extended the courtesy of being able to enjoy the facilities of whichever club I choose to patronise. If none of the other guests wish to play with me, that is THEIR DECISION. There's nought wrong with going to a club simply to enjoy the atmosphere, get to know new people in the scene, and spend an evening in the company of like-minded folk. It is not the job of the management to stand at the door armed with a metaphorical yardstick, tape-measure, bathroom scales and BMI chart, just to make sure that short-arse fatties like myself don't spoil the fun of 'beautiful' people who can't stand to be in the same room as us... Also, you might be the 'hottest' bloke on this site, but if you go around branding people as 'ugly' and 'bitter' simply because they disagree with you, you're going to find it damn difficult to find any meets. I certainly wouldn't touch you with a barge pole. | |||

Les Chandelles guests ranged from 20s to 50s, so it seemed to us to be more about looks, size and dress than an age thing. We're pretty sure the club needs the more mature folk for the cash they flash at the bar - seriously expensive prices! | |||

The owners try and avoid this by using their judgement and seeing if you're similar to their guest list. Er, no. The first piece of advice I was given when I got my name down for my first club night was 'don't go with the attitude of just looking to get laid. I didn't play with anyone that night, but I still spent several very pleasant hours mingling with the regulars and finding out about the scene. Not everyone goes to club nights just to get their end away, and a lot of clubs nights cost less than the entry to a regular nightclub or a round of drinks at the pub... " Oh right. We go to play as I'm sure many others do as it is, you know, a swingers club. Not sure what clubs you have been to but all the clubs we have been to have costed much more than a round of drinks! Maybe you should just go to a regular club and not get so bitter about which clubs other people go to? | |||

"I have no issue with face pic its the body pic from waste up which is clearly picking on looks and discriminating" Not necessarily at all. Just send the pic in. Be confident. The club I go to asks for good clear pics possibly even the same from waist up and I see all sorts of shapes,sizes,looks in there. Its normally hearsay that puts people off ie. A couple of weeks ago a couple went to 1 club on a friday night and were actually told by staff that the other local club wouldnt let fat people in. They went to the other club on Saturday to test it out for themselves and had a whale of a time and met some lovely people. Regardless of where it is I would just send it in. We can often make the wrong assumptions. I have before. | |||

I was complaing that looking up to a bunch of people i personally find very unattractive is off putting. If i looked up from my partner snd there where a bunch of sexy couples watching that adds to it. Its positive visual stimulation and the naughty being watched stimulation. But looking up to a view that is normally the kind of thing i picture when im trying not to cum is verg different | |||

Surprise, surprise a sex orientated site will have those who "discriminate" based on looks.... Private clubs can really do what they like...of course there is always the threat of customer backlash...but it seems that many patrons do in fact like the idea of clubs being selective about who they let in. ESPECIALLY the women. TBH, no. People dont really want to see fat/out of shape old men collectively wanking in public areas...not entirely sure if that makes someone terrible for expecting some clubs to cater to that desire. | |||

I also note that it is only 'fat men' that are being targeted on this thread. Tell me...is that because: A) these clubs can't AFFORD to discriminate against women, because so few women seem to want to attend? B) the patrons of said clubs regard 'fat women' as being 'easy' and/or 'desperate'? C) the owners of said clubs regard BBW as a 'kink,' but BHM as just 'promoting ill health'? | |||

However I said clubs that restrict membership, not admittance. Most clubs do one couples only night a week at most. The only club I've heard of that was always couples only started letting in single men within a year of opening. | |||

Hosting a dedicated 'couples only' event would no more come under the criteria of 'restricting membership' than would hosting a 'BBW and Admirers' night or a 'T-Girls and Admirers' night. Those are SPECIFIC EVENTS catering for specific clientele. What you are advocating is the ability of a club to bar people who you deem 'unattractive' from ALL events, regardless of the target audience. | |||

Sorry, I don't. I'm late 40's average guy. I can understand some clubs only wanting young uber-hot people. It is what their clientele want and makes that club what it is. I won't be getting in, but don't mind. I am happy in a club with a mixed age group where generally most people find a match. They seem to be 90% of the clubs anyway. I don't care about the selective club. I only know of Killing Kittens in the uk where it might be a thing, but I will survive. There's no point gatecrashing the party where no one wants you to be there. Relax, have fun folks xx | |||

It is fine for you to want that but you then go on with: "You seem to be under the delusion that I'd lose weight PURELY in order to get laid by vacuous arseholes who are so insecure and shallow that they can only stand to be around 'beautiful' people..." We have different yardsticks by which we measure who are "'beautiful' people" and who are not. And just because you may not fall within someone's definition of a 'beautiful' person, does not mean that they are "vacuous arseholes who are so insecure and shallow that they can only stand to be around 'beautiful' people" There are more folk out there who find me unattractive than who may find me attractive.

Well, swinging is about sex and not about charity. BBW are less restricted because women are smaller in number in the swinging world as is and BBW is still a pretty popular fetish/interest...hence why there are events catering specifically to that. Yes, "BHM" is not desirable to many. Women dont want clubs filled with "wanking, older and overweight men" and, quite frankly, swinging is inundated with men as it is so you're essentially in a buyers market. In any such market, men will have to compete and thus those with less desirable traits (whatever they may be) will be left out.

"Just because you may not fall within someone's definition of a 'beautiful' person, does not mean that they are "vacuous arseholes who are so insecure and shallow that they can only stand to be around 'beautiful' people" I never said that they were 'vacuous arseholes' because they don't consider me to be a 'beautiful person'...I said that they were 'vacuous arseholes' because they were advocating that I lose weight in order to stand a better chance of getting laid..." Are you shocked by this statement? Like, seriously? Wow. This is what I mean. The level of delusion among some of you really does border the mentally insane. Being fat makes you less desirable to the genpop. If you are less desirable then you be overlooked for more physically appealing men. Physical appeal is still one of the dominating factors in sexual attraction. Mate...surely you're jesting with posts like these ![]() | |||

"Well, swinging is about sex and not about charity." Did I say ANYTHING about looking for 'charity'? I just want to be able to patronise the club of my choice; particularly if it's the only club in my local area, or the only one offering specific events. Also, my point was that ALL of the objections being raised on this thread are being directed against 'fat, overweight men,' not 'fat, overweight women.' But of course, the owners of these clubs HAVE to tolerate the presence of women who don't fit their 'standards of beauty,' because said women serve to attract more male clients...WHO CAN THEN BE FILTERED according to physical appearance... | |||

Yes, because fat women are more appealing than fat men. The proof is in the pudding. And yes, oin many cases you will have to "tolerate" women who dont appeal to ones preferences because swinging is heavily dependent on women...they're the "unicorns" after all. As said....buyers market. You symbolise the strange sense of entitlement a lot of hopeless men have on this site...and then they whine about having "poor luck". A swinging club IS a business and, like any business, will seek to make a profit...in order to this it needs to cater to the whims of an audience. Men always complain about men being "discriminated against" in bars/clubs/swingers clubs but then will moan when those same clubs have nights which end up as sausage fests. The presence of a good ratio of men and women can make or break a clubs reputation...thus they will need to cater to the market by being selective of the less valuable patrons. Men are the less valuable patrons. Accept it. | |||

"Anyone noticed more clubs wanting face pics to choose if you can attend. Talk about elitism." We have zero issues with showing our faces in our profile, but we absolutely refuse to even consider a club that has some shallow vetting policy based on how you look. Our view is that it's their loss! | |||

"How about if you don't like the idea of being judged because of your appearance, you don't try and get into a club that requests that kind of thing? " I don't...then again, that could be because a visit to my nearest club - selective or not - currently requires me to either get on a plane or spend a minimum of 90 mins on a boat... | |||

When we started we were like sad little sex hunters and we admit it. Pretty much from the day we realised this and just went for the party atmosphere the level of play we got jumped enormously. We can pretty much get play in a club anytime we want now, because we go with zero expectations and just enjoy the night. | |||

You complaining about private venues discriminating against something which isnt even a protected class. No, you are not entitled to "equal access" if a venue does not benefit from allowing you to access it. Its like complaining that a hair salon caters to women. You're not entitled to patronage. | |||

Actually, if my understanding of the legal position is correct, as far as 'private venues' go, there is no such thing as a 'protected class,' because Private Members Clubs are not subject to the Equality Act. In other words, the owners of a swingers club could go far as to say 'no blacks, no asians, no gays, no Jews, no Muslims,' and they STILL could not be prosecuted under the Equality Act, because they are not providing a 'public service.' HOWEVER, that doesn't change the fact that it IS NOT 'entitlement' to protest against being excluded from a club based upon an arbitrary characteristic. As to your example of hair salons, it is true that businesses providing public services are banned from discriminating on grounds of gender. HOWEVER, women's hair salons - at least the ones I know of - DO NOT EXPLICITLY ban men from making appointments there. It is simply the case that men DO NOT TYPICALLY SEEK the services they offer. That said, UNISEX hair salons are becoming increasingly popular; in France, for example, they are the norm. | |||

In order for some clubs to thrive and succeed they need to meet the demands of those willing to pay to become members in a pool of patrons that match their ideal for possibly playmates. Clubs are privately owned, so have the right to run them as they see fit, if it wasn't working they would change their process. Truly, if you have an issue with a clubs rules and process, why do you want to become a patron of that club? Just move on to the next one... | |||

Do you mean that you'd find it 'sad, juvenile and entitled' that a club didn't want black members; or that you'd find it 'sad juvenile and entitled' if people took to fab in order to complain?" No, the club would be racist. And I would also hold the complainant in high regard if he repeatedly whined about the same club not letting him in. He would indeed be juvenile and entitled for begging for approval from a club who clearly did not want him there. The same reason I side eye those who complain about "not being given a chance" by couples who explicitly state "no blacks/asians/whites". I mean, why would even want to play with them? However, this still ignores the obvious reality that the average consumer will maintain some form of moral influence over their decision making...since things like race take greater priority than size in any moralistic purchasing decision, logic would dictate that any establishment risks bad publicity by adopting such a stance...hence most (if not all clubs) opt out of explicitly stating race based preferences. Why? Because its a risk to their business to do so. So you're essentially sitting here and asking why a club doesnt risk alienating its primary target demographic to please you. Thats entitlement in a nutshell. | |||

We run parties at S-private-club and have always found them to be 100%fair with their membership policies. Yes they ask for a picture of single guys from waist up. Not to see if they are fit or buff as some people may assume but to see if the picture they send matches the photo id they bring . Its a way of making sure the single guy is who he says it is. It is a well known fact that lots of clubs are over run with single guys and Annie and Sam do not want the same to happen to their club so numbers are always as even as its possible to achieve. They have never declined a membership request based on what someone looks like.couples and single females have to produce photo id when they apply also. Every club has their own rules, and every membership club has their own selection policies. That is their right as club owners. We have always found annie and sam to be 100% fair to everyone. | |||

Killing Kittens have a very stringent acceptance policy. Most men and quite a few of the women on this thread would not get through Again, what is the 'complaint'? Is it that single men were asked for a photograph before being accepted for membership? Most people who are banned from clubs for bad behaviour, sense of entitlement, etc, happen to be single men. Clubs need to ensure that they do not re-apply for membership and turn up on the night and cause trouble This is a storm in a tea-cup. And frankly, I don't think that the clubs do apply any kind of stringent vetting for single men. The fact of the matter is that single men are a dime a dozen in the swinging world. If I attend a venue more than twice and all I find is fat old men, then that is the last time I go there Clubs have to limit the number of single men attending on the night otherwise the couples and single women would stop attending. I don't want to see three men to every women in a club. It find that to be a very intimidating atmosphere The club you mentioned actually does not base their acceptance policy on what a guy looks like. I have seen all sorts of men there | |||

"An interesting thread I am 35 year old male that is slightly overweight, slobs about in tracksuit bottoms and hoods and goes to football Or I am 35 year old male, that goes to the gym 3 times a week, can do a 5km in less than 28 mins, wears suits and ties, and accountant Now both are me. The first one wouldn't get in to many clubs but the second one would. Perception in the swinging world is a big thing. Personally I would be nervous about sending a face pic, and a chest pic because I am slightly overweight and I look like a miserable fucker However yes, I can fuck, and yes I have got a bloody good sense of humour and I am polite and genuine as my veris attest to. People shouldn't always judge a book by its cover The thread has yet to find a club with an anti-male vetting policy. It is a storm in a tea-cup for the eager-to-be-wronged. Forget it, go and have fun ![]() Ahhhhh now that I can manage ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | |||
