"or do you avoid taking your chances? I mean in life in general...? What constitutes an acceptable risk for you and what does not?"
One that i'm convinced won't result in actual bodily harm (to me - or anyone else!), arrest, reputational damage or major financial loss (again to me or others!).
Apart from that - i'll pretty much give anything a go!

"Yeah, I'm definitely a risk taker although i'm calming down a bit in my old age, i've taken many risks in the past. Some i'm not particularly proud of but it's whats made me who I am :D"
I seem to be going the opposite way and taking more risks as I get older! Think lack of confidence has always held me back in the past, but as I'm getting more confident I'm taking more risks x |

Bit of a odd thing to ask swingers innit? Or is this some bareback signal to see who plays without?  |

Driving is a risk to some and a pleasure to others.
Taking drugs and drinking is a risk to some and a pleasure to others.
Sex is a risk to some and a pleasure to others.
It depends how people see what is a risk or is a pleasure.
It's a fine line to cross and big step to take.
It all comes down to individual perception. |

No I tend to think things through first before jumping in. I am not very impulsive at all.
I suprise myself and others occasionally but it's rare.
Mr B is more of a risk taker which I find difficult at times..lol

Yep... and theres also the case of the balance or probabilities...if the pleasure outweighs the risk..then dependent on that it risk it might be one worth taking. |

No, read the question again! If I wanted to ask about bareback swinging I would have asked that question. There are hundreds of threads about barebacking, dont think we need another one. |

"everything in life is a risk, the stakes are up to you
Wolf  "
See, this is what I think, too. I am a risk taker but I would say it is about a kind of calculated risk. I would only take a risk where the consequences would affect me - I d never put anybody else at risk. |

"Depends if money is involved"
Good point! If there was, how much money would people risk? I dont mean figures I mean proportions eg would you/ anybody be prepared to risk their home or is there a line they would draw?

I think the clue was in " in life in general" seems pretty clear to me |

I wouldnt take the risk if I was paid..a risk is still a risk..
We wouldnt take it for all the tea in china..let alone money.

"I love taking risks. There's nothing like that buzz when something slightly scary takes off. "
See, this is where I am finding myself at times - there is a buzz to a moderate risk and its fun |
