Couples are faced with a choice of being "soft swap" or "full swap" in their lifestyle interactions. For definitional purposes, let's use intercourse as "full swap," and up to oral sex as "soft swap." (Please feel free, however, to add, subtract or modify in any responses.)
What has your choice been and why?

Hey, for everybody soft is different, but for us it is same as you said. Soft is up to oral, full includes intercourse. 

Hi.
Same for us. In your profile you can indicate what you like, "full" or "soft" swap. We like the full swap, but if there is a nice couple only in for soft swapping, no problem. The intercourse is not a must and sometimes even when we meet a couple thats in for full swap, we don't have intercourse. Hand and oral work can be enjoying too.
Maybe there can be something written in the "lifestyle etiquette" on swingular about this item. Anyway, swinging is having erotic fun with other friends and thats why we like it so much. Our swinger friends belong to the best friends we have!

Our profile says it all, she is Bi and we are soft, funny thing is most of our playmates have been full and respect our limits. They also have a great time and enjoy the difference from their normal activity, that can be more erotic at times. We just hate all these labels, some Full couples say "we don't want to waste our time with softies" What is with that?? Have fun, experience new things and make adult friends...that is what we do.
So whether you are soft or full, if you are attracted to us, come and meet and lets see what happens respecting anyone's limits is what we always do, so what is different?

We agree with the responses here on the definitions. Although we have come across some couples that also consider full swap seperate rooms as well as intercourse. So we make sure we always clarify what full and soft swap mean, just so there are no suprises and we always respect the others couples limits. Like Destin we dont understand ones that saywe dont waste our time with fulls or softies. Its all about meeting new people getting naked, in most cases, and having fun!!
The definition you gave is the same as ours. In regard to different rooms we consider that a seperate subject and is not related to full or soft.
We see the announcement of full or soft as a limit the couple is comfortable with.
Our experience has been that most couples interested in the fun aspect of the experience don't pressure or judge others no matter their preference. Which is how it should be.

For us the terms are relative to our situation. We are open to intercourse, but there have been many times where we fool around, maybe not even any oral with the other couple and end up having sex with our own partner and simply watching the others.
We've found that sometimes, even if we are completely attracted to the other couple, we just don't feel like using a condom, so sex with your own partner is just the answer.

We are very open-minded about the whole lifestyle. We will do almost anything that our new playmates want to do. Soft, oral, full... it's whatever makes everyone comfortable. Always respect new playmates limits.
When I was still married, we soft swapped exclusively. That was the ex's choice.
My opinion - and I do have a strong one on this issue, is that there isn't a lot of sexual satisfaction from soft swap. What's the point, unless your're a voyeur. I have nothing against voyeurs - especially given the fact that I consider myself an exhibitionist.
Having said all of that, I want/need the full swap. It's not just multiple partners, it's experiencing new, different, unusual, variety, etc. etc.

We agree with lizze....not much fullfillment out of the soft swap...we enjoy full swap fun...it is an awesome experience...we are bouth so sexual that it is even better to watch each other get fucked by another person.
We are a mature couple who have been together 30 years.
We believe that it is possible to have agreat time with others and keep it soft.
One learns that it is true to say that travelling in expectation is often better than to arrive.

The definitions seem right on target for us we willsoft swap but they go to the back of the list the female half of this cpl likes a good hard fuck she gets it from me all the time so when we meet with others we like full swap its not that we won't soft swap its just that by the time we meet withall the FULL SWAP cpls it leaves hardly any time for the SOFTIES LOL. We might want to mention that most of the so called SOFTIES we have met had a hard time doing anything but talking so as not to offend any softies out there we are not judging you by any means we are just stating our preference and our personal experiences.

Hmmmm, we've had a ~lot~ of fun 'soft swapping' before. Kinda a throwback to the old 'dating' days as a teenager. You know, where you date and date and date, and each time together, you go further and further, until finally you seal the deal. Always made it more worthwhile, I suppose, since there was so much buildup to that point.
That being said, I'd prefer a 'soft swap' to start, then one that could lead into 'full swap' eventually. I don't think I'd want to meet a couple who was totally closed to full swap, but you know it's hard to say that since we're in it for both the fun and the connections.
The more interesting questions for my wife and me is -- separate rooms or not, and separate swinging or not...
(eventually, not right off the bat of course)

we like couples that are comfortable enough to do full swap, not just because of the full swap sex alone, but there seems to be less hang ups or concerns of emotional problems... or jealousy, things like that, so we only do full swap...
Gotta agree with Lizzie and Tall here. Not much fullfilment in soft swap. It's fun to watch and to go oral, but the real deal is in the real deal. In our opinion anyway.
we have the same def. intercourse is full swap. but soft can include intercourse if everyone is in the same pile.....LOL
