I worked at Erotica this weekend, it was as horrible as ever. If you've never been to Erotica I would actually recommend it. For a couple of hours it can be strangely good fun to stroll around looking at the unusual items for sale and the strange people who go there.
People really dress up for Erotica, or perhaps the other way. If you ever wanted to see the nipples of a 50 year old woman, or a man with a pot-belly in a thong this is the place to go. While I like that there are couples who are clearly still ticking each others boxes you also see things you really rather wouldn't.
It's just all so sleazy, wanton I can deal with but nasty leering men are another thing. And after days and days of it, pretending to like people is rather challenging.
Any way there were some amusing moments. I ended up having supper with a woman who is currently having an affair with one of the chaps from Inxs, she was letting everyone listen to the filthy phone messages he had been leaving her.
Then a swinging couple showed me the three expressions you need to swing. Apparently swinging at events is all about eye contact. And there are three different looks
1) GO AWAY.
If you can imagine the look you give someone after making a really sarky comment or a bit of a put down you are about right.
2) WATCH, BUT DON'T TOUCH
This one you make eye contact and smile while looking away, sort of like being coy and flirty I suppose.
3) COME AND JOIN IN THE FUN.
This one is brazen, you make eye contact, look them up and down especially focusing on the crotch area and then look them straight in the eye nodding slightly.
Well now you know.

The three expressions of swinging...who knew? Not me! You learn something new every day! That clearly could have been embarrassing if I took expression #2 as expression #3! LOL!
Interesting blog! Good job!
Rock ON!
Use this information wisely, with great power comes great responsibility.
