People may choose a swinging lifestyle for a variety of reasons. Practitioners cite an increased quality and quantity of sex. Some people may engage in swinging to add variety into their otherwise conventional sex-lives or due to their curiosity. Some couples see swinging as a healthy outlet and means to strengthen their relationship.<sup id=\"cite_ref-case_for_swingers_1-1\" class=\"reference\"><\/sup><\/p>\n<p>The phenomenon of swinging, or its wider discussion and practice, is regarded by some as arising from the freer attitudes to sexual activity after the sexual revolution of the 1960s, the invention and availability of the contraceptive pill, and the emergence of treatments for many of the sexually transmitted diseases that were known at that time. The adoption of safe sex practices became more common in the late 1980s. It is also a recurring theme in pornography.<\/p>\n<p>The swingers community sometimes refers to itself as &#8220;the lifestyle&#8221;, or as &#8220;the alternative lifestyle&#8221;.<sup id=\"cite_ref-2\" class=\"reference\"><\/sup><\/p>\n<p><b>Places swingers might meet<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/swingstr.co.uk\/what-is-a-swingers-club\/\">swinger clubs<\/a><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, also known as <b>Sex clubs<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><b>lifestyle clubs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, are formal or informal groups that organize sex-related activities, or establishments where patrons can engage in <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sex acts<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with other patrons.
