2:30 How to get what you want out of swinging

Diana Ryan and Kieland McClellan give advice to a listener who doesn’t feel welcome in most swinging spaces in Wisconsin and who keeps encountering women interested in her man but not in her.

See who you vibe with and ignore the rest Ask the host to introduce you to people If there is a Facebook group, chat people up there first and invite them to say hello when they see you at the live events Consider reassessing only playing together—maybe playing separately in the same room? Or consider kink events, where people can be more open-minded
