Why am I not surprised to see you reading this thread?:confused::drink:  Since I am here for the first time, and I admit I haven't read the previous pages. I am drinking an Australian Shiraz called "The Ballbuster".  I figure it is somewhat relevant.


This is my first visit as well!  I just stopped in to see what the hell Jen was doing over here!  I actually thought this was the fashion thread!:confused:

Dude, she asked to be poofed to keep from offending someone that she didn't realize was a member. There IS a difference. :P

Alt.lifestyle used to be how it was written in the old days pre-html. Alternative lifestyles can generally be anything not normal, often refers to the BDSM or swinger communities though.

And while Jen may think we need a special cruise, just like any other theme or group it's nice to vacation with like minded people. Hell, it's nice to vacation with open minded non-judgmental people where you don't have to worry about you tablemates or the direction of various conversations, like nudity or other alternative lifestyle choices. Our last cruise two of our tablemates were prudes who thought we were sick perverts, and that was because we were upset about the lack of a topless deck, never mind if they would have known our other lifestyle choices.


Very well stated.

I hope you know I was just kidding with you and giving you a hard time.  I didn't mean any offense.  It is a fine picture.

I know you are joking.  I was taking jabs at everyone's "colorful" avatars.  I do not think I am going to post anything as bold though.  lol  Especially not of myself.  I will not go as far to say there are not some photos that I could post though.  :angeldevil1:

Yes, it is. And it's frowned on even more in the lifestyle than in the normal world.

A little advance warning would have been good on that one. :big grin:

FWIW, I have a few friends who embrace this lifestyle. It's not for me at ALL, but that's neither here nor there. I think Jedi was saying that "extracurricular" activities outside of the knowledge of the spouse in that lifestyle is frowned upon. Whether that behavior is less acceptable in the lifestyle or outside of it, I can't really say.

All I can say is that I'd have a new necklace with a few pretty 'jewels' on it if I ever caught my husband doing that. Been there, done that....won't allow it again! I only divorced the first one for it. This time I'll be out for a bit more than that!

I don't blame you. Never have understood cheating on your spouse. If you don't love and respect them enough for that, how can they trust you with anything?

I've never understood it either. If you really have the itch to roam, why not at least do the halfway respectable thing and end your previous relationship first? I'd still be hurt, don't get me wrong, but I'd rather be dumped than cheated on! While my spouse may no longer love me enough to be married to me, at least he had enough respect for me and our marriage to end it before seeking greener pastures.

Imagine if they actually knew more about us! That opinion was based on the fact that we said we were upset that Carnival had ended the topless deck so abruptly (March cruise with the topless deck being removed in February)
