I want to put a theory out there for other peoples opinions.

I started swinging ing over 30 years ago, when the main method of making new contacts were through private ads in swinging magazines or social directories. This meant making contact through P.O. Boxes, letters or landline phone calls. My experience then was that after taking the effort to set up a meet, most people went through with it.

Now however, setting up a meet is so easy, using sites like Fab and the like, email, kik, WhatsApp etc. but I feel that this ease of contact is one of the reasons why I have found it seems to be less than 50% of organised meets actually happen.

So, what have you guys found? Especially those of you that remember those days of social mags. Genuinely interested to hear your thoughts.

Yes, I remember the days of "Forum" magazine that would forward your letters. Very exciting to get a letter back with some polaroid pics! Think things have expanded massively since, there must be research on the % of the popultation that has "swung" but youre right, it maybe faster but also more "scattergun" approach?

I think “scattergun” is probably a very appropriate term. Thanks for sharing

....around 4 percent of adults. That may not sound like many, but it means one couple in 25. www.psychologytoday.com research from 2019
