I have been a hobbyiest for about 15 years and a swinger for about 5 years. The one thing that i can tell you is that the two worlds are different. Certainly they both involve sex, but they are different. The escort world is primarily about single guys (whether married or in a relationship or not) seeing a woman for their sexual needs. For the swinger world, it usually is a couple working together to find outsiders to satisfy their sexual needs.

I know most if not all of the swinger websites (including LL), but i can tell you that it takes more than a posting on a website to be active in the swinger life. It takes time to establish the relationship with your swinger partner, and then it takes time to develop that with outside couples.  It is a great life, but just life in life, there are many casualties on the road.

Me, I love the swinger life and would not trade it for the world, but, having said that, and my wife will agree, I need to have the fun that the hobby provides. So the worlds are similar, but very different.
