Join Kat & Leo for Part 3 of how to be a savvy social swinger in this episode of the Vanilla Swingers podcast.
Social Swinging Part 1
Believe People When They Show You Who They Are (Yes, Even in Bed)
First things first, if someone gives you uptight vibes outside the bedroom, guess what? They’ll probably be just as stiff (and not in the good way) inside the bedroom. This is a golden rule: people are consistent. If they’re a wild party animal when the clothes are on, expect the same when they’re off. If they’re giving you tightly-wound accountant energy over cocktails, don’t expect them to turn into Casanova once you hit the sheets. It’s about managing expectations and not getting caught up in fantasy land. So, pay attention to those early vibes—your future fun depends on it.
Husbands Need to Find Best Deal for Them
Listen up, gentlemen: 90% of the attention in the swinging lifestyle is going to your wife or girlfriend. Everyone—and I mean everyone—wants to get with your leading lady. So where does that leave you? Well, my friend, this is where you’ve got to be savvy. It’s not about being the star of the show; it’s about securing the best deal for yourself. Be Machiavellian if you have to—this is a game, and you’ve got to play it well.
The trick is to keep your cool and be strategic. Don’t get swept up in the attention she’s getting. Instead, use it to your advantage. Find the couples (or singles) that will give YOU the experience you’re looking for. Play your cards right, and you’ll come out of the night with a win for both of you. It’s all about finesse, baby.
MFM Threesomes: A Newbie’s Best Friend (Seriously)
Let’s talk about the ever-popular MFM threesome. If you’re new to the lifestyle and feeling a bit overwhelmed, this might just be the perfect starting point. Why? Because it’s all about the wife being in the spotlight while the husband gets to play director.
“Trust me, as Kat says, “You should absolutely do it.” “
Single males are straightforward—their desires are crystal clear. They want your wife, they want to please, and they’re typically more flexible and easy to handle compared to couples, whose dynamics can be a bit more complicated. They will take whatever you will give them. No swinging pitfalls like jealousy, no confusion—just good old-fashioned fun. If you’re looking to dip your toes into the lifestyle, MFM is where you want to start. Plus, it’s a great way to ensure the wife gets all the attention. What’s not to love about 2 mouths, 4 hands, and 2 cocks?!
Social Swinging Part 2
Swipe Right on Smiles: The Power of a Grin
If you’re doing some app-based searching for your next swinging adventure, here’s a pro tip: look for people who smile in their photos. Smiles aren’t just a sign of someone who’s friendly—they’re a sign of someone who’s likely to be a pleaser in the bedroom. Think about it: if they’re all grins and positive energy outside the bedroom, that vibe will carry over into the fun stuff. After all, believe them when they tell you who they are! You see that duck face, run for the hills!
You want someone who’s going to be enthusiastic, fun, and eager to make sure everyone has a great time. A smile is your best clue that they’ll be bringing good vibes to the table (or bed). And remember, a little charm goes a long way—swipe right on those smiles, and you won’t regret it.
Confidence Is Your Best Asset (Work It!)
Whether you’re making the first move or simply holding your own in a conversation, confidence is your secret weapon in the swinging world. People are drawn to those who know their worth and aren’t afraid to show it. So even if you’re feeling a bit out of your comfort zone, fake it ‘til you make it! Walk into that party like you own the place, and you’ll be amazed at how the energy shifts in your favor.
And here’s a little pro tip from Kat: flirt with everyone. Yes, everyone. Not just the people you’re interested in but also their partners, friends, and even the bartender! Being charming and personable will open doors you didn’t even know existed. Plus, it’s all about creating a fun, inclusive vibe that makes everyone feel good—and that’s when the real magic happens.
FWB vs. Couples: Two Very Different Beasts
Alright, listen up, savvy swingers! There’s a world of difference between Friends with Benefits (FWB) and committed couples—and if you can’t tell them apart, you’re cruising for a bruising.
Here’s the tea: FWB pairs are basically two singles who just happen to be rolling together. They’ve got their own separate desires and agendas, and they’re not tied at the hip like couples are. Think of them as a single male and a unicorn—they’re out here for their own adventures. They might be chasing different dreams—he’s looking for an MFM threesome, she’s eyeing a FFM situation—either way, they’re not necessarily in sync with each other’s needs. It’s like a tag team, but with very different end goals.
Now, a couple? That’s a whole different story. They’re in it for themselves—together. Their dynamic is all about making sure both of them are satisfied as a unit, and you’re stepping into their world. You’ve got to cater to both sides equally, and let’s be real, that can be trickier than it sounds. A couple isn’t just out for a good time—they’re out to enhance their relationship, and you’re the extra spice. So, play it smart: recognize when you’re dealing with two separate forces (aka FWB) versus a united front (aka couples) and adjust your game accordingly.
