"Are you not bothered at all by the thought of your wife having intercourse with another man?"

I think there is something that is missing in the makeup of men who do this sort of thing. I have no understanding of such a man's thought processes. It is the norm for a man to be protective of his wife. There are many swappers, but they are degenerates who do not love like other men. There is just something that should be there that isn't.

I'll never understand the thought process of the "swinging" set. This whole argument does raise an interesting question in my mind. Who would you rather have as your neighbors? A swinging couple or a pair of homosexual male "life partners" who do not engage in sexual activities with other men outside of their relationship?

I think I'd lean toward the second option.

Here is where your thinking goes wrong,Don. You are seeing sex as something a woman needs "protection" from. Maybe even as something that hurts her.

There are many swappers, but they are degenerates who do not love like other men.

They are not "degererates" just because they think differently than you about sex.
