On-Premise verses Off-Premise

Conceptually this is easy. On-premise is a party where sex or sexual behaviors, and nudity are allowed (and usually not required). Off-premise is a party where sex or sexual behaviors and nudity ARE NOT allowed.

On-premise parties are typically held in the various lifestyle clubs, at hotel take-overs, the couples cruises, camping trips, and house parties. Though such activities may be restricted to certain parts of the venue. For example, on the swingers cruises, you could only have sex in the cabins and a few designated areas including a large group area.

Off-premise parties are typically held in more public venues. My first experience in the lifestyle was at a bar where swingers met for meet and greets. Nudity was not allowed (though some flashing was seemingly tolerated), and sex was never allowed. Typically people would come to the off-premise party and then head off to a on-premise party, a hotel room, or some other place where fun and games could begin.

I find both kinds of parties to be a lot of fun. But with all parties, do you homework and make sure to check out honest reviews before you decide to dedicate an evening to a party or event.
