Pienso que «intercambio de parejas» quiere decir «partner/couple swapping», o aun más informal, «swinging». («Swinging» es modísmo para esto, no es igual a columpiarse.) Un «swingers club» o «swingers bar» es donde se realizan.

Or "wife-swapping" if you don't care about being politically correct.

Hmmm interesting..

So are you proclaiming/assuming the men to be the main 'instigators' in this sort of thing and the women to be onlookers basically?
i.e. The women have no 'decisive' vote in this, this is only called 'swinging' for it to be politically correct?

No sé porque se dice "wife swapping" y no "husband swapping"; tal vez tenga que ver con la cultura patriarcal. Estoy comentando el vocabulario que usan los hablantes nativos, no estoy profiendo mis propias opiniones sobre la práctica.

No he dicho que "swinging" es políticamente correcta sino "partner/couple swapping", que si la he oído antes han sido pocas veces.

Not much point if the wives are only onlookers. In fact, a horrible image.

You can also put an add in the newspaper:

I exchange old woman of 40 y.o. for two young women of 20 y.o.

How's that for "swapping"

Oh, they can exchange a 40 old gizzard for 2 young 20 y.o. studs!

Still swapping, right?

Gizzard is funny but the term is geezer. Gizzards are mollejas.

Oops, and I know that, but since I love fried gizzards, although I cannot eat them anymore, my fingers did it once more. I apologize for that. I'm truly becoming a old geezer.

Cambio Goofy a régimen por Pluto que coma de todo.



No entiendo el chiste de Empanada : "Llámalo como quieras, Malcolm, pero prefiero pensar que es una fiesta de intercambio de maridos" No lo pillo.
