Swing TP Level
Swinger TP Levels
|
The Tee-Pee is a perfect example of the circles found within the Swinging Lifestyle… Tee-Pees are built as circular structures with flexible exteriors and doors. Within the Swinging Environment, there are “circles” or “groups” that converge based upon common interests, attractions and comfort zones. As Swingers “experience,” they desire the flexibility to change Tee-Pees. Within any circle … the doors are always open to come and go as desired. The Tee-Pee looks like triangle (three points) explaining the need to have at least a third party (aside from you primary partner) to be a Swinger… It is very important to note that there are many variances in the Tee-Pees above and you may find yourself somewhere in-between… Remember, they are all flexible.

TP-1: These individuals enjoy sharing sexuality at a safe
distance, such as over the phone or via e-mail. You may talk dirty and do
things to each other by request of your “pen pal” couple or
individual. 
TP-2: These individuals enjoy either being present and watching another
couple or individual performs a sexual act or performing a sexual act
while being watched or watching while being watched. Maybe you share a
hotel room with two queen size beds right next to each other.
TP-3: These individuals has preset rules and limits as to how
far they will go with another couple or individual while sharing sexual
activities. This will usually include touching outside of there primary
partner. It may also include sexual massage, licking and kissing…but never
penetration. Usually at this level, a bond or friendship is the goal of
all and is usually not intended as a one-night stand. 
TP-4: These individuals set aside the rules and limits as to how far they
will go with another couple or individual while sharing sexual activities.
This will usually includes not only touching outside of there primary
partner but, it may also include sexual massage, licking and kissing and
even intercourse. This grade is usually with an individual or couple that
has created a common bond and attraction with the intention of an ongoing
relationship and friendship. 
TP-5: These individuals share sexuality with another couple or
individual to the extent that they do not have limits other than
protection (condoms) as long as they are in the presents of there primary
partner and usually sharing each other at the same time (threesomes or
four-sums). There is not expectation or obligation for long-term
friendships or relationships… Just fun sex. This level, as in any of the
levels, does not rule out the possibility of a long-term relationship
between any or all parties involved. 
TP-6: At this level, the individuals enjoy meeting people that
want to have sex…Plane and simple. Attraction may or may not be important.
Safety from disease is usually the only rule of thumb at this
level…however; primary partners are still part of these encounters and
even though they may have all the fun they want… the primaries always go
home or to bed (to sleep) together. 
TP-7: The grade seven is no longer considered elementary
swinging… this is the hard-core swap. I’ll take yours; you take mine…see
you tomorrow. We find this a lot with “open relationships”. The hard part
with this form of swinging is the unknown factor of your primary. This is
a topic all of its own! However… there usually still needs to be somewhat
of an attraction to the other individuals involved.
TP-8: This level is easy to describe…anytime, anywhere and with
(almost) anyone.
