Swinger Safety 101: Emergency Contacts, Vetting & What Ifs

Oct 7, 202630m

Show notes

What happens if? It's the question nobody in the ENM lifestyle wants to sit with—but Adam & Pris say it's one of the most important conversations you can have. This week's quickie digs into the paperwork, vetting, and emergency plans that swingers, poly folks, and kitchen-table throuples all need but rarely discuss.

In this episode:

  • The "what if" scenarios that keep Adam up at night when Pris plays solo
  • Why the early Craigslist days of swinging were scarier than they look back now
  • Vetting a new play partner: video verification, verified profiles on 3Fun and SDC, and why a driver's license request might be a red flag
  • Real talk on medical emergencies during play, and what happened the one time a partner had to be rushed to the hospital
  • Emergency contacts and medical decision-making for poly & kitchen-table relationships (HIPAA workarounds included)
  • Why disclosing ailments, allergies, and meds like Viagra before you play isn't a vibe-killer—it's a life-saver
