The Swing

Updated 11/02 [F 28] The swing is fabulous! I used to have one until a jealous boyfriend cut it up. It wasn't like any of the ones I see today. Mine was a leather strap with wool on the inside and it fit snugly underneath the breasts. Then you hung it up by the two chains and bolts in the ceiling. It makes up for some really interesting sensations.

[F] My husband and I bought a love swing from one of the adult stores in Orlando and I had him install hooks all over the house...in each room, the garage (doesn't work in the kitchen...too big) and on our lower deck. It's absolutely fabulous! Our house faces the east, but we have a gigantic live oak in our back yard, so the sun doesn't shine on the deck until around 11AM. It's the most erotic time we've had! I've told our best friends about it and they're going to get one.

Updated 11/01 [M] About the swing: earliest recorded use that I've read about is a translation from a book in the great library of love-making (largest in any language) in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, dating from more than four thousand years ago. It was a woven-grass basket suspended by a rope. I read about it from "The Arab of the Desert" when I was 11 years old, living in Abqaiq, Saudi Arabia.
I've been enjoying this since I first made one when I was about twenty-eight years old (thinking, what a tradition I'm perpetuating!!!). Since, I've enjoyed it with several partners (building a new basket in each new country I've lived), and recently added what (for me) is a new twist: Recently I surprised my wife by drawing an aromatic oil bath, red, yellow and blue flower petals in the water; a tropicaldrink (caipiriņa) a present of a new, soft summer dress, very short and flirty; and when she was all soaked, softened and finally dry, I led her to the bedroom (the basket is suspended over the bed), and lifted her into the basket (still make my own!), and blind-folding her.
I then brought into the room (all naked) four visiting businessmen--not associates, I met them at a restaurant). She, like your other contributor's wife, was low to the bed, and the men in turn lay face-up beneath her while I lowered her slowly onto them. Norma told me later that she didn't guess what was happening until she felt someone moving on the bed nearby as the second taughtly delighted guest watched his cock agonizingly disappear into her while she turned in the air. She never said a thing, and we continued like that for more than three hours.

[M 58, F 47] A little over a year ago I purchased a Love Swing (not from the site you reference, but from www.loveswing.com), and my wife and I have become outrageously satisfied users.
Background: We're middle-aged couple (me 58, she 47), both on our second marriages, who've been together for 19 years. We both enjoy sex a lot, but our lives seemed to have gotten busier and busier, and our sex lives were suffering because of it. Until a year ago last April, that is. My wife was back East at a business conference, and I was home alone lurking on my favorite smutty web sites, when I stumbled across some references to a Love Swing that a lot of people seemed to really like.
After a bit of research (Geez, the web is great for this!), I found that there were a couple of different kinds of swing. The less expensive ones were a massive tangle of straps, hung from the ceiling, that looked (to me) like something out of a masochistic gymnast's nightmare. The pricier versions (about $200) also had a bunch of straps, but they were used to support a highly adjustable, hammock-like canvas lounge that looked a helluva lot more comfortable than the straps-only models. This is the model I opted to buy. I also paid $30 extra for a 360-degree swivel that makes it easy to rotate the swing in any direction you like. (They advertise that it can be used for some kinky Oriental sex position where the guy lies on the floor on his back, while his honey sits in the swing and rotates her pussy around his shaft. We haven't tried that yet, but we find the swivel great for varying who gets to watch what in the mirror or in the porn flick on the tube.)
Our Experience: This Love Swing is the most abso-fucking-lutely fantastic sex toy ever invented! Sex in a bed, my wife and I have learned, is really very awkward -- you're always fighting against gravity to get your bodies joined in the right position without crushing your partner. The Love Swing makes gravity work for you instead of against you. It makes sex unbelievably more comfortable and enjoyable for both participants.
My wife lays back, with her feet up in the stirrups and a pillow under her head and, because I'm not on top of her, she can move her butt and her pussy any way she wants to maximize her pleasure. She says it gives her even more freedom and control and pleasure than when she's riding on top of me in bed.
For my part, I stand in front of her and I can thrust aggressively, or I can move us together, rhythmically in a love dance, or I can stand still and make the swing move back and forth, sliding my wife's pussy back and forth over my rigid penis, like an unbelievably intense masturbation aid. (I don't claim to understand why, but my wife also finds the latter motion extremely intense and exciting.) And, when I feel like I'm getting too excited, but don't want to cum just yet, I just pull out, drop to my knees, and I instantly have a mouth full of hot, wet pussy to tide me over until I calm down a bit. (Incidentally, the swing is great for oral sex for both partners -- if I get in the swing, it gives my wife really easy, comfortable access for giving me a fantastic blow job.) Also, with me standing and her laying back, it gives us really wonderful visual contact. I get a fantastic view of my cock sliding in and out of her pussy, and we have wonderfully exciting eye contact, as we talk about how much she loves the feel of a hard cock in her pussy and about who she'd like to have me watch fuck her, and as we finally both cum. Unbelievably intense! (Whew! Wait a minute -- let me calm down and catch my breath... there, that's better.)
Conclusions: As you may have figured out by now, we really, Really, REALLY like this toy. I'd read that they were good and a lot of people liked them but, until we actually tried it, we couldn't really appreciate just how wonderful such a device could be. I ordered ours from www.loveswing.com. I phoned the guy who makes them and he was really nice and helpful. He put together a rush order and overnighted it to me so I would get in time to put up before my wife got home from her business trip. So if you're looking for a fantastic gift for your honey (and for you), I don't think you can go wrong with a Love Swing.

Updated 9/01 [a loving couple] We have a swing; not the one pictured on your web site, but a nice one, anyway. Ours has a curved back piece and padded slings for the thighs. Quite sturdy and comfortable, actually. The nice thing about it is that we can adjust the height (with a piece of chain) to suit our activity. If we're going to have a hot fuck, I set the height so it looks just a tad high for me. When my wife sits in the swing, it pulls down just enough for the perfect angle. If I want to feast on her pussy, I set it lower; whether I'm kneeling or sitting. And, if I want a real treat, I can set it real low so she can bounce on my cock. Oh yes, we bought a stout spring for it too. Bouncy-bouncy!
I asked for more details and the writer responded :
We hang the swing in the living room, in front of the fireplace. Mmmmm, nice. The funny part is, I had to put a hefty screw hook in the ceiling and to "disguise" it, we hang a basket of ivy when we're not using the swing. As far as safety, the swing is more than sturdy enough to hold even me (165 lbs). My wife & I had fun in the local hardware store, selecting just the right spring to use as an accessory. We would put a spring between two turnbuckles (something to hold on to) and then lean back. We felt like Goldilocks (Nope. Too loose. Nope too stiff. Ahhh, just right!) We wondered what the clerk was thinking, watching us.
