Recommend wife sharing websites and/or forums

Please recommend websites/forums where people/couples share their experiences with swinging.

My wife and I want to know more about wife-sharing.

I can't suggest any specific sites but you may have more luck googling polyamory to find such forums. Wife-swapping (beyond the icky ownership connotations) is a more seventies term, as is swinging, and neither is used by younger couples (apologies if you are an older couple and that is actually your target demographic).

A good site where you can read and ask questions is ZetaChannel.

The discussion of swinging/polyamory/open relationships is possibly more casual than overt, but there are plenty of old topics in the archives and as long as you post thoughtfully, the good folks there will be happy to answer just about any question about, well, anything. I've never met a more open, honest, and interesting group of folk with such a wide variety of experiences, sexual or otherwise.

In this particular case, you're looking for the 'Sex' sub-forum, by the way.

Polyamory is not the same as swinging/wife-sharing/wife-swapping. Many polyamorists would dislike being confused with swingers.

Open relationships are not quite it either--but closer.

Fetlife.com has a good repuation but I have no personal experience with it.
