Swing party etiquette

• Q: At a swing party, I say it's bad etiquette to be the first to take out a whip--one should wait for the host/hostess to do so first. Don't you agree?

• Dr. Klein: As Mrs. Campbell said long ago, "as long as you don't frighten the horses..." Non-S/M swing parties generally tolerate mild stuff--spanking, a little whipping, nipple clamps, etc.. All party activities can be initiated by anyone, so anything in this "S/M lite" category can be initiated by anyone--no need to wait for the hostess to bend over. Anything that intrudes on others' space, however, such as very loud flogging and yelling, or acting out a rape scene, is generally unwelcome at a non-S/M swing party.
