Drawing on an extensive survey of real people and over 40 years of
research, this revealing volume proposes that a nonmonogamous
lifestyle may be healthier for marriages than a monogamous one.
Based on an exhaustive survey into the lives of real people,
Swinging in America: Love, Sex, and Marriage in the 21st Century
concludes that nonmonogamous relationships such as swinging and
polyamory offer a new blueprint for combining sex and love-one that
may prove more in line with the way people actually live their
lives in our society. Swinging in America begins with what we know
about swingers and the swinging lifestyle, based on personal
narratives and over 40 years of sociological research comparing
swinging and non-swinging couples on factors such as personal
happiness, marital satisfaction, psychological stability, and
personal values. The second half of the book explores the
historical rise and contemporary decline of monocentrism-the
sexually monogamous marriage as the organizing principle underlying
our culture-and the implications of this decline for new
nonmonogamous relationships and marriages. Includes data from a
national survey, conducted by the authors, of 1100 swingers in the
United States Offers first-person accounts from people in the
swinging lifestyle Provides extensive bibliographies after each
chapter documenting sources of information discussed in the text
