Dara: I can’t understand this swinging thing. It seems just so weird to me. Why would anyone want to have an open marriage? Just fix your current one!
-
Me: Um, I think there’s a difference between swinging and open marriage.
[everyone stares at me]
-
Me: I mean, isn’t swinging where you go out as a pair together…
-
Pauline: …yeah, and switch partners…
-
Me: …and an open marriage is like, well, one person at a time goes out as they wish to see other people.
-
Pauline: [nods]
-
Me: Clearly, we’re talking synchronous vs. asynchronous.
