Can i ask if anyone goes to the bdsm nights at townhouse. We are thinking of attending soon, we are not swingers but would like to make friends on the scene. We are a femdom couple. Thanks. | |||

Its a swingers club with a fet night. Mixed opinions on this but if your not really into swinging or such scene may i suggest finding local munches and some event nights which are just for the fetishists. www.Bdsmandfetishmentor.co.uk Pro dom/me & Training / Mentoring services available. Either come to us or can travel to you with discretion assured. | |||

It has a good range of equipment, personally I think it's a better place to play at than to socialise in, but that's just the way I found it. I know a few people that go regularly and love it. Assumption is the mother of all flamingo-ups | |||

By all means go to the Liverpool, Chester or Wirral munches and ask about The Townhoouse there. I have no doubt that you'll hear more praise than criticism, and a contingent from Liverpool and Chester usually piles off down there afterwards (there isn't a fet night to coincide with the Wirral munch... as yet.) It's a no pressure environment and there's certainly no obligation to do anything that you don't want to. If you only want to play as a couple, then that's fine. If you want to swap in a BDSM context but not sexually, that's fine too. If you want to go the whole hog, then you'll meet likeminded people for that as well. There are one or two voyeuristic or opportunistic swingers who tag along, but the majority of the crowd will be bona-fide kinksters. The ground floor (bar and lounge area) tends to remain free of live sexual activity, though that isn't written in stone and there will be porn (often BDSM but sometomes 'nilla) playing on various TV screens. Go upstairs, and you may well see more sexual scenes in some of the public rooms, though every night is different. The most intimate play tends to go on in private rooms with the doors shut. | |||

Contact @Churon or @Miss_Dee for up to date info regarding the Liverpool Munch and Radical Desire (the name of the BDSM night at Townhouse). Both are happening this Thursday 1st September and you'll find people at both are really welcoming and fun to meet. Edited 31 Aug 11, 5:12 PM by Peccavi | |||

I haven't been to the fetish nights at TownHouse but I've been a couple of times on a regular night and played BDSM scenes and enjoyed the freedom to be able to incorporate sex into that as well. I've had a brilliant times both times I've been and would love to go again. It's true that I went more to play than socialise, but the people I chatted to each time were friendly.

I've never been, but people I met at the Liverpool munch when I went last year had nothing but praise for it. | |||

As I see it, there are one or two hopefuls who you'll see on both swing and kink nights, hanging around in the hope of getting their leg over or at least getting an eyeful. I wasn't suggesting that they were breaking any rules; I just don't believe that they're particularly interested in BDSM. My point was that, while there are one or two people who fall into that category, the vast majority are there for the kink. It struck me that an earlier post was suggesting that this was basically a swing night with a BDSM theme, and I think most of the regulars would disagree with that. | |||

I have been to Radical Desire several times and it is a fetish night held in a swinging club. The emphasis is on fetish, not swinging. Even at a swinging night there would be no expectation for anyone to take part, there may be invitations, but you are allowed to say no. Go to it. You can spend the whole evening downstairs chatting to people without having to witness any action. If you don't like it leave. Rohypnol means never having to say "Would you like another coffee?". | |||

Yup, I had actually deleted the post you've quoted. I must have spent most of my 'scene' time there and I've never had the feeling there were people lurking just for an eyeful but then again I can be a bit of an exhibitionist which is in part why some people play in clubs. There is a crossover between people who swing and are also into BDSM and people into BDSM who go to use the play equipment on swingers' nights but I've never had the impression someone had wandered through the door on the wrong night and the fetish dress code makes it pretty clear. Any problems and the O/P should ask to speak to the staff. |
