What is the Lifestyle?
The Lifestyle is hard to define but you know it when you see it. The Lifestyle is the collective culture of those who engage in Ethical Non-Mongamy.
It is much more than just sex, it encompasses a whole world of experiences, people, and a way of life that is outside the normal, or Vanilla world.
Whether you are "dipping your toes in" or experienced in the LS, That Other Lifestyle is here to help you navigate this wild Lifestyle.

No. The "S-word" denotes two cis heteronormative couples engaging in adult activities. Lifestyle is more inclusive of all the ways that a person may express their identity, sexuality and truth in life.
Yes and no. S*x is a part of the Lifestyle but not the whole focus. Some people enter the lifestyle and never have sex with anyone. Some people focus only on the sexual side of the Lifestyle. There are aspects to this world for everyone.
Key Parties, where couples meet up and put their keys in a fishbowl and randomly fish out someone else's keys and then have sex with them, never happened. Complete Hollywood myth. In the current Lifestyle, the whole concept of key parties is very problematic.
Fun, Consent and Safety. Modern LS couples abide by these three pillars to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe. In the LS, Consent is king and verbal affirmative consent is necessary for any physical interactions.
We get tested regularly and use protection for all sexual encounters.
And Fun. We collectively make sure that everyone is having fun and enjoying themselves without hesitation.
If you are interested in joining the Lifestyle, I recommend education first. Before you do anything else, learn about the Lifestyle and make sure it is the right fit for you, your spouse and your marriage. I personally recommend a good friend, Lexi Sylver (https://lexisylver.com/) as a resource to figure out if you and your spouse should take this step.
No. There is space for those in the Lifestyle who are not married. Single women and men are welcome.
