Younger crowd


"I think there's a common misconception the men are leading the women," Rogue says. But that's not the case, she insists.

"I have this weird kind of perversion," admits the 30-year-old graphic designer, who gently cajoled her boyfriend into swinging with her. Once the couple finds a compatible match, they may leave the club and take things further.

"I really like seeing him getting off with someone else, but I am also quite fussy with who we get together with," she says.

So how do they make their selection?

"You approach it like dating," says Rogue. "I told one woman I liked her dress. But it's like any bar -- sometimes you're there all night and you won't find anybody."

Aurora Benzion and her husband, Shlomo, both 32, took their interest in the lifestyle one step further by opening a spot of their own called Wicked Club, a private members-only swingers spot near Woodbridge. The goal was simple -- to attract younger swingers.

'Felt out of place'

"Some of these clubs started out in the '70s and '80s with the 'Let's put all our keys in one basket' idea," says Aurora Benzion.

"The first time we stepped into one of these clubs, we felt really out of place because the crowd was so much older. I felt like a teenager."

After a year in business, they are relocating to downtown Toronto this September because of the demand from swingers, voyeurs and exhibitionists in their 20s and 30s.

"We're getting a younger, more urban crowd. They're more curious and they want to experiment," she says. "They're 25 to 35, they live downtown and they want to party downtown."
