"...because they've obviously gotten past any self-image insecurities they may have had to become involved in the swinger scene to begin with."

Now that is quite a mouthfull. Of course, you are not saying that non-swingers are just insecure, right? Are you coming out of the closet?

They aren't fooling anybody. This lib propaganda nonsense is just too transparent.

They try to imply that they are better 'adjusted', 'productive', etc. than everybody else. Same thing with the homosexuals, and other assorted weirdos.

I am saying that on average, the people I've met who were swingers were less insecure and had higher self-esteem than the population at large. I threw in a hypothesis as to why that might be to add to the discussion. I don't see what is so controversial about that. With respect to self-esteem and self-confidence, I would say the same thing about the U.S. Marines, for example (though perhaps for different reasons). If the general population is the gold standard for self-esteem, we are in more serious trouble than I thought. If all sub-groups were homogenous they wouldn't be sub-groups, now would they? Since when was making an honest observation an ideological statement?
