BOOK DESCRIPTION
Can open eroticism between more than two consenting adults be considered natural sexual behaviour? Is it possible to experience sex with other partners while happily ensconced in an emotionally monogamous marriage? Is swinging merely an invention of sexually permissive modern times? As award-winning investigative journalist Terry Gould discovered, swinging has roots that go back thousands of years and seem to serve a variety of social and biological purposes, some of which we have only just begun to understand. Controversial and unique, The Lifestyle offers a riveting book at what it means to be part of a growing subculture of mainstream adults who are changing the rules of sexual behaviour for pair-bonded humans. Or are they?
