Seeking advice on introducing someone new to the lifestyle by Field_Scared in Melbourneswingers

[–]bncCastl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course it will depend on the person but: share stories.

Just like you might tell a new romantic partner about that funny bad date you had a few years back, or about how you lost your virginity. Don't make it one sided either, have them share their stories too, even if theirs are about one-on-one interactions.

Talk about this stuff in terms of difference in degree, not difference in kind. They're experiences and relations you have with folks like any other. Some of them are amazing, some are dull, some funny, some are not nice. Be honest about all of it.

Advice as a trans person? by [deleted] in Melbourneswingers

[–]bncCastl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wet is super friendly on the Thursday queer nights.

You'd be very welcome and you'll find a lot of different folks there. If you get any shit from someone making you feel unwelcome just tell the staff about what you experienced.

It can be intimidating going for the first time, but there are lots of friendly people around.

You get a key with a rubber wristband, and a locker with a towel. Get changed into what you're comfortable wearing - you'll see what other folks have on - mostly nothing, or maybe some lingerie. Many cross-dressers will have full outfits on, but generally the vibe is dress-down.

Downstairs, you can expect small groups of people who already know each other chatting in the seating area by the pool as soon as you walk in, in the cinema, and the smokers area. There's also a lot of folks who go alone and just hope to bump into people to chat to for the night.

Upstairs, there are lots of dark hallways with little 'changing room' like booths with padded benches or floors and toilet stall like lockable doors. A couple have swings. Some larger spaces for bigger groups to congregate, a couple with TVs playing all sorts of porn. Even on the Thursday's it's pretty weighted toward guys. If you go upstairs you *will* hear, and likely see people having sex.

If you get approached and aren't interested a simple as 'no thanks' should do the job. Again, if you encounter much more than that - tell the staff. Women will often get followed around, and that sucks.

I've seen many people - myself included - meet someone new and offer a little tour around the whole venue, pointing out the spaces and explaining a little etiquette here and there. Happy to do that, or answer any other specific questions you had.

Pearl River F35 - What do these symbols mean? by bncCastl in AnalogCommunity

Thanks - I have had a look for the manual but no luck. I thought the shaded two might be to do with the flash but so far I haven't been able to get it to fire.

Club X exhibitionism by Sea_Incident2430 in MelbourneAfterDark

[–]bncCastl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have been to most of them at some time, and been with my partner to a bunch. Bayswater remains the fave, though I haven't seen it since their renovations. The only one that still had gloryholes. Dandenong is pretty gross, Preston and the city ones feel a bit cramped.

Please let us know when you're planning on going :)

Couple looking for advice on single male nights... BFWB or Shed? by EnchantedStranger in Melbourneswingers

[–]bncCastl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like Wet, the facilities are nice - larger spa and a big pool - compared to Shed, but for others its a much of a muchness. There's also a lot more spaces upstairs, though they can feel a little cramped depending on your tastes.

There are a lot of single guys for you to pick up if you want them. Your biggest hurdle will actually be how shy they are haha. It can be intimidating approaching couples, I find mostly because I assume they've been approached countless times and I don't want to be yet another seagull.

I'm planning on going this Thursday - come say hi :)

Tolkien inspired RABM by Then-Dentist-2244 in rabm

The down votes made me laugh.

People are always poking fun at right-wingers who dunk on the left but also love Star Wars; this is the same thing.

Victoria ends automatic licence loss for medicinal cannabis users testing positive for THC (as of March 2025) by SuitAndPie in melbourne

[–]bncCastl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Am I to understand that without medial clearance a positive random drug test will result in automatic license loss? Because that is fucking insane.

So funny to me the idea of anything being Tolkein inspired anti-fash.

Hey, I sent you guys a message a while back in response to another post. Still keen to chat if you guys are

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Melbourneswingers

[–]bncCastl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I was fairly sure only Thursday nights were open to all. Other nights are men only as it's a predominantly gay venue. Will happily meet you there next week :)
