For anyone who likes to draw outside the monogamous lines, ethically.

Whether you are polyamorous, in an open relationship, a swinger or just monogomish, this is the place for you.

A while ago I noticed a problem in my polyamorous social circles, namely that some of the guys just are not doing that well, in terms of finding partners, dating, and generally succeeding at nonmonogamy. In particular, the guys who are new to nonmonogamy seem to make a lot of blunders. Sometimes these are spectacular and result in those guys giving up and going back to monogamy, but other times they seem to take the form of a steady failure to date, or a quickly cycling through relationships. Of course, there are plenty of men who take well to nonmonogamy (myself included), espcially those who have been doing it for a long time. That said, longevity is no guarantee of success โ€“ some of the frustrated guys at my recent class on this subject had been polyamorous for over a decade but could still not get their groove on. My hope with the discussions below is that they will help other guys hopscotch past a lot of the conceptual traps that hold us back.

Not my area of expertise but in my city (3Mio+ people) I know atleast two clubs that regularly host parties that are pretty close to sex parties and in queer / alternative spaces there are sometimes sex parties advertised in queer / alternative spaces. Also similiar to the authors experience, there is a significant scene / subculture that hosts those privately.
