AAG reviewed 'The Large Cock Society' last summer, and at the time, this networking site for the well-endowed already had membership problems in that there were not enough users for the site to be very valuable. Since that time, the LCS which bills itself as "The Facebook of Large Cocks" had a major server meltdown and lost all of their data. The site is once again operational, and offers forums, personal ads, blogs and other networking. Since they have just re-started, their membership problems are far worse - 19 total members right now, with 19 total pictures. Hopefully they'll be able to get back on their feet. At any rate, if you are well-endowed or just want to connect with those who are, check it out. - Jane

Kasidie is a very nicely designed social community site for swingers. You have to join with a free account to access anything, but free accounts get quite a bit of access. You can set up a profile, and become "certified" without paying. Being certified involves proving that you're a real human, either by sending photo proof, or meeting another Kasidie certified user in person. You can search profiles, view profiles, view event listings, search for clubs by area, and so on. There are definitely areas that have a lot more areas than others - for example, my own area had only 4 other members close-by, but some areas have truly thriving communities here. Upgrading to paid membership mostly gets you contact benefits - the ability to email with other members, participate in forums and so on. The magazine portion of the site is definitely worth checking out as well, I found quite a bit of entertaining and well-written content there. Very nicely done! - Jane

Take a moment and imagine a leather Facebook or Myspace, and then imagine it being run by and for kinky folks. That is exactly what Fetlife is! It is the coolest new community site out there for pervs, and it is absolutely 100% free. I had been hearing the buzz about this new spot on the web from a few of my lifestyle friends, and I finally decided to go set up an account and take a look myself. Many years ago I had been on other sites that promised community and allowed free communication, but since those sites have sold to other companies their soul has left the building and communication costs money. It is also communication that is no longer under the nurturing ownership of perverts with a personal interest in our tribe. I'd lost interest, and so had most of my friends. I was hoping that this site could be some of what I was missing on the old ones. Wow, I wasn't disappointed! I immediately ran into some of my old friends, and then ran off to recruit new ones. It is easy to sign up. Once you have, then you set up a profile. You can add pics to it, and you'll never run into that "you have to have such and such membership" to view pics or show them to others. There are social groups here with ongoing forum conversations, so you can sign up for topics that interest you (or create your own groups). There is a mail system that acts like a personal bulletin board for private conversations, so you don't lose track of what has been said to anyone. You can post writing, see what your friends are doing, and a lot more. A lot of talented pervs are posting writing and engaging in conversation here. I've met a lot of new friends. There is a small amount of advertising, but it is done really tastefully and never gets in the way. You can write to the folks that run the site, and they will actually write you back. I've been in love with this place and raving about it for the last several weeks. This is one of the few sites that didn't ask for review. I sought out the owner and asked him if I could post one. It is that good. I feel like I'm giving you guys an early Christmas gift. Go check it out! This is the next big kinky community site! They are going to be huge, and they will stay huge as long as they keep the spirit that they have now. - Vamp » More Info!

The good ol' interwebs sure do offer up lots of dating sites. Trouble is, most of them aren't much good, primarily because they don't attract enough members to make joining worthwhile. DaddyDater.com, however, is a wonderful exception. At over 18,000 members strong, this bear-happy site is hopping with profiles, cams and an active message board. Members can also interact with flirts, post photos and videos, and check out who's been checking them out. I found tons of hot photos and interesting profiles -- enough that I was gnashing my teeth over the hot leather daddies. Standard memberships are free, but you'll need to pony up a small fee if you want full access to all the contact options. --aag

Muah.com is an attractively presented adult dating site for swingers and other kinky folks. Set up a profile, search members and post messages for free. The admins of Muah.com helpfully created an account so that I could try out the site. In the weeks that it existed before I managed to log on, my email collected a trio of messages from young ladies desiring to meet a man who was "trustworthy and strong, mentally" and who had "considerable experience in relations." Alas, these young ladies hailed from far off countries, including one who resided in Africa. The site also includes some informational articles, though I use that term very loosely. The author has this to say about buttsex: "Once tried, however, anal sex can quickly lose its appeal for women..." Really? For all women? Says who? In an article about g-spot play, the author warns that women who don't have good muscular control can end up peeing instead of gushing. This goes against all other research I've seen on this topic. Finally, I noticed some discrepancies in the number of uses listed on the site. Muah.com claims to have as many members from my mid-sized upper midwestern city as it has from Chicago, even though my town is but a fraction of Chicago's size. Also, many members seem not to have visited the site for months. Bottom line: Muah.com's got the same bells and whistles as other dating sites, but the number of members and sketchy advice would make me look for somewhere else to post a profile. --aag

Late one Saturday night I found nearly 2000 like-minded pervs chatting and camming on FanCamTastic.com. Well, let me rephrase. The site seems to have around that number of members, only a few of whom were actually online at that hour. Like most other adult personals sites, FanCamTastic allows users to create profiles, join groups, send messages and set up events. But on this site, the focus is on the camming. Listen to FanCamTastic.com's own radio station as you cam and chat. Earn points for logging in and other site activities. These can be redeemed for merchandise or membership upgrades. Standard membership is free; silver, gold and VIP memberships allow users to view more cams and access more ways to contact other members. Prices range from $9.95 a month for a silver membership to around $200 for a lifetime VIP membership. The site looks great but with a ratio of three men for every woman, some may find their camming options limited. --aag

So let me get this straight. WealthyBDSMDating.com attempts to make love matches between kinksters who are also rich? Is this possible? Let's check it out and see. 255 men and 77 women currently have memberships on the site, which certainly doesn't seem like a very large pool. There's no way to search a specific location; this would be a very useful feature for folks who are traveling or preparing to move. The "BDSM" categories also leave a lot to be desired. Right now the choices are gender (male or female only) and type of relationship (dom/master or sub/slave). This doesn't give serious kinksters much to go on, you know what I'm saying? There's a place on the profile to list a salary, but I wouldn't give much credence to this information. Perhaps in time WealthyBDSMDating.com will attract a following, but right now I'd suggest looking for a more active site for your rich and kinky dating needs. --aag

With a membership of some 1200 members, SexSpace.us offers free dating profiles to folks around the world. Upload photos and videos, participate in forums, post blog entries, and list upcoming adult events once you create a profile, a process which takes about ten minutes. Right now the forums and blogs are pretty dead. I found some disappointingly sketchy information in SexSpace's articles. For example, the authors suggest that to remove any taste, condoms can be washed with soap and water and then re-rolled for later use. (Note: Please don't do this unless you'd like to become a parent in nine months.) They also claim that "Once clean, licking this area of the body [ie, the anus] is virtually no different then licking any other," which may be true in terms of technique but is definitely not true in terms of disease prevention. Standard membership allows you to view only a small number of profiles per day. If that's not enough, you'll need to upgrade at a cost of $14.95 per year. --aag

After having spent the better part of an hour making a profile and hunting around on BidBuyDate.com, I'm still a little unclear about how things work. Part of that might be because the FAQ link is buried at the bottom of the page in tiny print. The fact that it's extraordinarily unclear also didn't help matters. In any case, the premise seems to be that you can set a price on the pleasure of a date with your bad self. Choose which bidder wins the honors, or else let the highest bidder win automatically. Once the date is complete, notify the site and earn yourself half the winning fee. The other half, naturally, goes to the webmaster. If buying and selling dates isn't your thing, use the site like any other dating site. In theory you should be able to search based on various characteristics; when I visited the search function alternated between slow and completely broken. A chat function is listed as "coming soon." Given the wonky functionality and the sketchy nature of bidding for a date, this site would not be my first choice for finding new partners. --aag

LoveIsTheBug.com is a UK-based dating site which offers the free creation of profiles aimed toward people who are already in relationships. Interested parties can sign up without a credit card, then post pictures and fill in typical profile information. I signed up for a free account then searched for members in my large Midwestern state. Unfortunately I found only a very small handful, none of whom had been on the site in recent weeks. I had better luck when I searched for members in the United Kingdom. If you need more than the basic free membership, LoveIsTheBug.com offers two premium levels, each with more viewing and search options. Prices range from 5.95GPB for a single month at the lower premium level up to 85.11GBP for a year at the upper premium level. LoveIsTheBug.com has some interesting features, but the current lack of USA members means that you'll likely have a hard time finding compatible partners in your local area. --aag

Couples.net.au is an Australian based site where couples (from all over the world) who enjoy the swinging lifestyle can find a friendly online community. The site is pretty busy and eclectic; almost distractingly so, in terms of design. But, once you register as a member, you have access to neat stuff like photo galleries, member blogs, and areas where you can chat with other members. One of the things I really liked about this site was how certain terms are hotlinked with definitions, this makes it really easy to pick up the lingo if you're new to the scene. - Shay

The site boasts only about 400 profiles from the entire United States right now, which means that you may have a tough time finding someone in your geographical region. Chances are even worse if you're looking for a single female. There seem to be fewer than 100 female-only profiles right now.

Most swingers dating sites are very basic with few frills. While this one certainly wouldn't be considered high tech, it is definitely riding the wave of internet technology; it has more advanced search functions, and more members than most swingers sites I've been to in the past. On the other hand, it doesn't have any free memberships (although being a member is only $2.99/month, which is in fact cheaper than any other pay dating site I've ever seen). It has a blogging section, but there are only maybe 10 posts from the last month, so I wouldn't say it is this site's strong suit. Lots of members, and you can add them, email them, etc. One couple's profile pointed out that you only have three options; couple, single female or single male, and that is hard for poly relationships, as well as individuals who don't identify as male or female. The event calendar is up to date, and has a fair number of events on it, which is always nice to see. All in all, a simple but pretty swingers dating site; nothing more, nothing less. - EssinEm

SwingersUnderground.com is a newish site devoted to bringing together folks interested in the swinging lifestyle. As is the case with many other dating sites, you must create a profile before you can browse. With this site though you also need to pay a small membership fee: two month recurring runs under $6, or choose an entire year for less than $20. I'm sorry to say that this site is currently a complete disaster. I searched my geographic area (of well over 500,000 people) and found only a small handful of profiles, most of which were not fully filled out. Even the folks who are typically the most popular on a swing site (single females, natch), had only a few views of their profiles. The profiles don't really have enough room in them for users to fill out pertinent information and all the images I saw were disappointingly small. New information shows up in pop-up windows, which is super-annoying. To make matters worse, the graphics are truly dreadful and there are ads everywhere. If you decide to give SwingersUnderground.com a shot, you can buy new pals a drink to flirt, send emails, post to the group blog and list local swing events. --aag

I'll admit that this takes me slightly out of my element, as I have no experience as a swinger. I'm more of a leatherfolk person. So, I looked at this site through beginner's eyes. You can sign up for a free 7 day trial membership that will let you look around and get familiar with the site (without supplying a credit card). It is a pretty painless procedure in which you create a username and supply an email address. They will give you the opportunity to create a profile at that time, but you can skip that if you just want to look around. Profiles are for couples, women, and men. You can designate what sort of "swap" arrangement you are interested in, and whether or not you plan on being in the same room as your partner during the experience. The site has a list of "validated" members who have been reviewed by other members of the site. There are special interest communities, party listings, forums, Q&A areas, a swinger's dictionary, an IM feature, a lively chat area, and more. I went in and spoke to the members, and they seemed very happy with the service. Customer service info is easy to find, and it includes a help desk number. I tried to write an email as a trial member, and I had no problem sending it. It looks like a nice service! If you are at all interested in the swinging lifestyle, I suggest you at least give the trial a chance. It will let you look around without making any kind of commitment, and that validation process seems very popular with the members. Be sure to check out the blogs, I found those to be really interesting! - Vamp

This is another one of those generic personals sites that offers a free membership. Once you are inside, you'll realize that you can't do much of anything without a subscription. The profiles have the usual vanilla info, and they can also have pics and such. If you are a paid member you can send and reply to messages whenever you want, see your admirers, keep a buddy list, use advanced searches, and IM. I searched for US females 18-35 with photos, and came up with slightly over 10,000 results. When I checked the profiles, many seemed geared toward sex exclusively and a bit "fake". It set off my escort alarm system, but maybe I'm getting cynical in my old age. I didn't find any helpful information about membership privileges at different levels before joining, and the sign up is really a blind experience. I wasn't impressed. I am not going to give a "quality" rating to any personals sites with that kind of blind sign up anymore, they are just too annoying. - Vamp

This is an excellent swinger lifestyle site! The best way to appreciate what they have to offer is to check out their extremely accurate "Quick Tour". Basically the site offers scene and party information and reviews, instant messaging of other members, anonymous texting (exclusive to this site), photo contests, advice columns, forums, and searchable profiles of thousands of members. You can view profiles based on distance of the person from you, picture availability, current rating, age, or keywords. There is also an added bonus of the "100% Real Seal". The "Real Seal" means that the people have been verified as actual people in the lifestyle rather than just picture collectors or fakes. The customer service and basic faq information on this site are explicit and helpful. The entire service is well put together. There is a free 7 day trial membership, and an "exclusive membership" that is $24.95/ month recurring. There are lots of options about payment (monthly, 3month, yearly, nonrecurring). This is one of the best organized sites I've seen in this genre. Excellent and lots of members! If you are a heterosexual or bi-female swinger I think this is one of the best spots on the net to hook up. » More Info!

Out of the sites I've reviewed so far only two have gotten me hot and bothered, and World Wide Wives is one of them. World Wide Wives is a personal networking site that has a huge display of user submitted photos and videos. The photos and videos vary in quality which is pretty standard for amateur submission sites, but they are fun to watch when you know that the folks in them are having fun and getting off. The personals section of the site is quite well done. Members are able to search for others based on similar interests and sexual compatibility. This site is a must see for anyone interested in viewing, and potentially meeting, beautiful wives across the world. - Wolfe » More Info!

Dirty David is a site where singles and couples all over the world can get together for sexual encounters. The site has been in operation since 1999 and has over a million members. New users can create an account for free and will some basic access to the site. Users can search for couples, men, women, groups, as well as TV/TS individuals, in whichever country you chose. With a paid membership users can look for same sex couples and even search by breast/cock size and drinking/smoking habits. Search results turn up a listing of individuals with their screen name, age(s), thumbnail image(s), and location. You can click their name to learn more about them: how much body hair they have, if they practice safe sex, etc. But apparently if you want a close look at their pictures you have to buy a membership. One thing that I thought was kinda cool about this site was that users can not only upload the standard profile images, but video and audio clips as well. -Shay

Dogging refers to the practice of watching couples engage in sexual activities in semi-public places such as parked cars. Dogging.co.uk serves as a place for British folk keen on enjoying dogging (or any other sexy activities, in fact) to hook up with willing partners. The site allows profiles and pictures to be posted absolutely for free, with no payments ever needed to read emails or exchange contact information. Yep, it's all free. The site owner promises to remove any "fake" profiles and never to post inflated statistics. Unlike some other hookup sites, Dogging.co.uk is very plain. There are no bells and whistles. But it's *free*, and do you really need the bells and whistles? If you are looking to get naughty in the UK, give it a look. Who knows what fun you'll find. - AAG
