Lynn, these are sex people!

[OneHangryHiker]

I only wanted to join the parents association at dds secondary school to make some friends.

Turns out, if I wanted, I could make some REALLY good friends.

I’ve helped out loads for events this school year, been invited on nights out, it’s turned into recently being invited over with dh to houses of about 6 families who are close friends.

We were invited to an adult only get together this weekend, which as it turns out, is a sex festival, as Alan Partridge would call it.

I mean, I’m an adult; there’s no awkwardness, I said thanks but that’s not really our thing and everyone was cool, we still in the gang, just not the inner circle of shaggers, but hey, just my luck to have been friendless for years only to find sex people.

Thought this would give someone a laugh on my behalf.

I think this was going on in a funny kind of way among a certain group of parents at my DD’s school. At one of their Christmas get togethers a DH of a school mum pal asked me to sleep with him. Well, ok, but no, even though he was a dish, he was married. ( I wasn’t) And then, his friend who lived a few doors down from him, propositioned me too. So I think they were planning it. Urgh. None of the women ever mentioned anything, but the men were super frisky.
A friend left London to move to à bougie little town often mentioned on here as naice. She got invited to the swingers group within a week or two of dropping her kids off at school!!
come to think of it, I got invited to the swingers group when I was on holiday in Cornwall! Apparently people get bored in these little places and have to create their own entertainment.

iow, there’s a lot of it about!

@OneHangryHiker I have sex people friends. Like you I don’t fancy shagging them but they’re still very nice friends to have. I notice you said about not having many friends so I hope they become good friends without the hot tub 🤢party.
You seem really funny, they’d be daft to not keep you in the circle just because you’re not into the partner swapping!
I remember the first time my partner realised that they were sex people. I’d been told outright that they were and genuinely forgotten to mention it to him. He come to find me, like the beautiful innocent soul he is, to tell me his favourite thing about finding out our friends were sex people was that they showed him their reviews on a hook up site. “Lwren, it’s trip advisor, but for shagging!”

Just say "I don't want to join your sex festival thank you"

The kids will 100% find out. I remember the frightening amount of stuff kids used to know about both parents and teachers when I was at secondary school, with a bunch of fantastical rumors thrown in for good measure naturally. But there's absolutely no chance the kids aren't going to figure out they are shagging in the hot tub.

OMG I have no words. If it floats peoples boat then fine, but not with school parents 😂

I’m putting in an early nomination for this to go in Classics…..

Yes, we all (teaching staff) knew at a primary school. Was also a bit of a welfare concern as they weren’t storing the videos (long time ago) securely. Back when they were called blue movies.

Could she have meant class A drug taking?

I live in a rural community, there are no secrets, this would be around the whole place in an hour.
I would be personally affronted if someone asked me this, as they obvs think you would be up for it . I would be THEY THINK I AM A SEX POND PERSON.. THE HORROR.
Are there no parents into the other kinds of pond op ? The ones who know different species of newt and like pond edging plants ? Those are my people.

Also hot tubs… uggh… Legionnaires disease springs to mind.

If their sex festival was so great they wouldn't need new people to join.

I imagine it'll be like one of those gross sex clubs on an industrial estate where single women have free entry, couples pay £20 and single men pay £40. Albeit free in this scenario.

And before you ask how do I know? It's because there was a sex club on the industrial estate near my old work and someone mentioned it one day and I thought no way is that true and looked it up and it was.

And there was a free buffet so you could enjoy some Iceland sausage rolls touched by hands that had...

Basically driven by men who want to rail someone else and their poor wives get dragged along to get spit roasted because their DH loves it.

And no, we don't need to hear from the women who allegedly love it. It's MN, there's no shortage of other forums where you can talk about it.

Keep your kinks to yourselves.

Hmm. Before my time DH was in the PTA and often mentions how excellent a gathering it was for a lone single bloke looking for lurve. He denies group sex in a hot tub, but I have my suspicions.

@Charys was it Saffron Walden?

You can have your own view but you can’t tell other people what they can talk about

Oh hell. I'm about to set off to a PTA run preloved uniform sale 😱. I already wasn't looking forward to it before I opened this thread...

Did you accidentally join the Penis Tits Ass club and not the Parent-Teacher Association? It’s happened to the best of us.

@OneHangryHiker I mean, by wild in the hot tub, I’m assuming she didn’t mean pin the tail on the donkey.

Be careful, that could well be a euphemism that all us more vanilla types don't understand. Maybe that's exactly what she meant! (Mind wanders to a dark place...)😂

No, deffo shaggers.

You need to go back, act more interested and then get all the details, then come back and share 😂I'm so invested.

I have so many questions 👀

Nothing like this has ever happened to me! Feel a bit rejected now 😂

My curiosity would be killing me though. I'd want to know all the gossip but not actually join in which, as you said, you can't really do.

Ah, thank you. Yes, I am very funny and friendly and am always up for a laugh. To be fair, I see why I am an easy person to ask these things of, I am very non judgmental so she obviously feels comfortable enough round me to ask, and know I wouldn’t be shocked or put off friendships if it wasn’t my thing.

I am actually off out for end of term drinks with her and some of the others on Friday eve.

And yes, moved here from across the country 6 years ago and found it incredibly hard to make friends. The primary school doesn’t have a PTA or anything and it’s an area where people don’t tend to leave, so everyone has friends already and don’t need more, so the primary was very insular.

Secondary is a selective school in another town with families who come to the school from all over the shop, so it’s been a lot easier to join the large group of people in the parents association and meet people.

You never know, once I know them a bit better, maybe they will be forthcoming! I am very intrigued 😆

Oh I was itching to know more!! It would have been a bit odd and rude to have asked though.

Thats quite a brazen group to approach another school parent without any chat build up to suss out beforehand.

In 20 odd years around the swinging scene (was a swinger, worked in a clinic, friends with club owners) the vast vast vast majority of folks would not dream of having group fun with parents from their child’s school.

The surge in (shit) programmes of C4 and C5 since 50 Shades adding to the pretence that controlling men and abused women is what swinging is about for everyone has also added to the folks that don’t have the common sense to keep stuff away from your children’s lives. Bloody bizarre imo.

I’ve spent a lot of time with her since September. Never talked about sexual stuff, but we’ve done lots of events together, taken the children out together, had nights out, hung out as families at weekends. So she’s not a random school mum.
