Sex Swing Knowledge

If you are considering buying a sex swing, keep these thoughts in mind.

  • Where will you hang your sex swing? - To be really effective, a Sex Swing should be hung in a location that gives 360 degree movement and enough room on all sides so that you aren't ducking a lamp and dodging a counter. Keep in mind that actual weight of a person bouncing in a Sex Swing can be much more than the persons normal weight. Before mounting your new sex swing, a good rule of thumb is to triple the weight of anyone who will be in the swing and then make sure that the mount point for your sex swing can support that much weight. Rule of thumb, if in doubt, talk to someone who is qualified to install a mounting point capable of holding the weight. (you can tell them you are planning on hanging a VERY heavy plant from it) :) If you don't have a good place to hang your Sex Swing you may want to consider a Portable Sex Swing Stand as an alternative.

     
  • Do you or your partner have any physical limitations? - Sex Swings are actually great help for people with disabilities and/or physical limitations. But before you can experience the benefits of a Sex Swing - you have to get into it first. If you are the person who is getting into the sex swing, you have to be able to hold while you get yourself situated and comfortable. Once you are in the sex swing you can usually relax to some degree however, depending on position there will usually be some part of your body that is not relaxed and fairly rigid. For example, if you are laying on your back in the sex swing you will usually have to maintain some rigidness in your spine to keep you from slipping out of the swing like jello.

     
  • How much bounce do you want? - Not all sex swing come with springs, and those that do come with springs can have different sizes. There are even some sex swing that use a Bungee Cord as the spring and offer a much greater bouncing and floating effect.

Historical Tidbit - Taken from the Love Swing instruction manual, manufactured by Topco.

Since ancient times, cultures have recognized the value of good sex and the art of love-making. Proficiency in the art of love-making requires both knowledge gathered over the years and, of course, practice. In ancient India, there lived a Mughal emperor named King Ahmad. Desirous of the lovemaking skills to match his handsome appearance, King Ahmad commissioned his great princely sage and poet, Kalyana Malla, to seek out the knowledge needed to be a master of love. Kalyana Malla consulted many wise and holy men, examined the opinions of many poets, and extracted the essence of their wisdom. Subsequently, he composed a work which was called the Ananga-Ranga. This is the second of the three classic Eastern love texts which include the 2000 year old Kama Sutra.

Kalyana Malla believed the main reason for separation between couples, and the cause that drives partners to the embrace of strangers was the lack of varied pleasure and subsequent monotony. Monotonous sex often leads to no sex at all and a multitude of other problems. Kalyana Malla believed the cure for this was a healthy sexual imagination. Imagination in lovemaking generates increased pleasure during sex, renewing a couple's desire for sexual intimacy. This renewal of sexual philosophy held that by varying sexual positions with your partner, you could fantasize as if you had many different partners. Each position had its own unique benefit. Combined, these positions elicited myriad sexual delights. Many of these positions were extremely difficult, yet it often was these difficult positions that provided the most stimulation and satisfaction.

However, only those trained in yoga or possessing great strength and athleticism could perform these positions and reap the pleasures they aroused. Ancient Indians recognized this problem and created the first sex swing-like devices to facilitate difficult positions. Most were a failure. Limited by the materials and technology of the time, these devices were crude, often consisting only of ropes and pulleys. As you can imagine, they were extraordinarily uncomfortable, cutting off circulation of the limbs and abrading the skin. Ancient depictions of the use these swings didn't show very happy users. These devices were also dangerous. Not only were they uncomfortable, they were also difficult to use, often requiring attendants and tremendous exertion on the part of the users. Surprisingly enough, even with all these faults, the sex swing was very popular as an expensive and exclusive item for the wealthy, who could afford both the sex swing and the attendants needed to assist during usage.

Now thanks to modern materials and technology, safe, comfortable and easy-to-use sex swing are available to all of us..King Ahmad never had it so good!
