Wouldn’t it be funny if a sex therapist was the last to know that OC is the capital of swinging? At least, that’s what a KDOC TV reporter told me. When asked about it on live TV, I said, “Well, I’m not surprised. We’re a very recreational county!”

What is more surprising is that when a private swingers club was recently closed due to “code violations,” only 25% of comments on an OC Register blog thought that all such clubs should be closed and swinging should be outlawed. The other 75% either thought it was no big deal.

So maybe it’s true that when it comes to the bedroom, people really want the government to stay out. My colleague Marty Klein recently joked that conservatives want to shrink government until it can slide under the door of your bedroom. But most people want to be left alone. Even if they don’t support an alternate lifestyle, they want to be free to express themselves sexually.
