Is YOUR neighbour a swinger? These are the secret signs to watch out for – The Sun | The Sun

THERE are many types of neighbours out there that we have to deal with, some are friendly and some are just impossible to talk to.

But what if they are swingers? These are some of the signs to look out for which might show that your neighbour is a swinger.

 

What are the signs your neighbour is a swinger?

Well, there are several signs which show that someone may be a swinger.

Here are some that you should look out for to discover whether your neighbour is swinging or not.

Pampas Grass

According to the Telegraph, this plant has an association with swinging.

Plant sellers have claimed that sales of pampas grass have plummeted and some nurseries have stopped stocking it completely as buyers avoid it for fear of the connotations, the Daily Telegraph reported last year.

Nick Coslett, the marketing manager for Palmstead Nurseries, has said the plants sales have falled and it's connection to swinging has played a part.

He said: "I've got no evidence that it was ever used for that – I think it goes back to the fact that it was planted in people's front gardens.

"But there is that connotation, unfortunately."

Certain jewellery

According to Cooper Beckett, host of the Life on the Swingset podcast, many swingers wear a black ring.

He told The Stranger: "Wear your black ring on your right hand if you are out and open to meet other swingers.

"If someone wearing a black ring on their right hand approaches you, start a conversation with them, 'I see you're wearing a black ring on your right hand. Maybe we are in the same club'."

Other secret swinger symbols include a woman wearing an anklet, toe rings, thumb rings and switching your wedding ring to the right hand, according to alternative lifestyles website Bigger Love.

Home decorations

There is a range of house decor that can link your neighbour to swingers.

They also cite white landscaping rocks and pink or purple decorations in the front garden as a signal of swinger activity.

Bizarrely, the website identifies pineapples as another swinger trait – in the form of a door knocker.

They may look sweet and innocent, but it turns out garden gnomes are a likely indicator that the resident is into swinging.

An estate agent in the U.S. found this out the hard way, when their client was warned off buying in a "huge swinger community".

The claim is also backed up by a Reddit thread, which also suggests that pink flamingos on the lawn is a tell-tale sign, though the user who uploaded the post was sceptical.

A special sign

According to the website Swinger Code, people who are up for swapping sexual partners often wear a wristband brandishing a special "sign".

The subtle symbol was created to help swingers recognise each other and help them to find potential partners.

According to the website the sign is "unobtrusive and respects the privacy of the ones who wear it".

The symbol, which consists of the international male and female signs arranged horizontally with their circles intersecting, with three plus or minus signs on both sides, differs slightly depending on what the swinger is into.

The three plus signs on both sides means they are "looking for partners as a pair" while the minus signs means they would also join without their partner.

Hot tubs

Having a hot tub in the garden is also famed for being a common swinger trait.

But according to Ross Phillipson, sales director at Hot Tubs Superstore in Blackpool, this is now a myth.

He explained: "The biggest misconception is that hot tubs are the preserve of swingers, indulgent Premiership footballers or flashy types who live in Essex. In fact, they are bought by anyone and everyone."

Another sign is that your neighbour will never open their garage door until they're in the car with the doors closed, according to a Reddit thread.
