Frequently Asked
Questions
Where is the party? When are they held? The location and event details are disclosed only to members. We are in
Fairfax County, just inside the Beltway. We try to keep the schedule here
updated and we also list our parties on SLS and Fetlife.
Are there hotels nearby? Yes. A lowdown on the best
options can be found at www.silkandskin.org/hotels.htm
What is the age range of your members? We have a few 20somethings at
every party (mainly single males for the ladies’ enjoyment). Most members
are between 35 and 65. A few are even older and still kicking.
Is the group inclusive? Yes!! There are black
guests at every party and a sprinkling of everything else. All are welcome
here. Who you play with is personal, but if you don't want to be at an event
with people who don't look like you and play exactly like you, we don't want
you there, anyway.
We have a number of loyal repeat offenders who are transgender and welcome them
with open arms, along with bisexual people of every type. We're not really
targeted at gay men or women but they are welcome to come on down. Cheaters are
NOT welcome. Neither are people who do not agree with our enthusiastic support
of sexual and personal freedom and our opposition to idiocracy.
How many members do you have? What is the mix at
parties? Membership varies from month to
month, but there are about 600 on our invitation list. Our first parties in the
new location had around 55 people but since early 2025 nearly every party has
sold out at more than 70.
We aim for a male/female ratio of about 1.2 to 1, and
it's tweaked to account as much as possible for the er, appetite of the female
guests. The ratio is higher at a party with more single ladies and lower at a
party that has more couples. We work hard to avoid having too many single men.
We have always had far more
single people than the average Lifestyle party. Because we allow single men
(and they are handpicked by a female rather than being allowed in simply based
on ability to pay), we attract more single women. Parties that do not allow
single men often claim to have single female members but usually there are few
or none in reality. The large presence of singles changes the atmosphere: it's
wilder and less predictable. After experiencing this, I rarely go to
couple-only parties any more because I find them
boring. However, if the presence of single males irritates you, go elsewhere.
Is it BYOB? Yes.
You are welcome to bring the alcoholic beverages of your choice.
Will there be food? Hell, yes. We put out a real
spread of food. Salmon, shrimp, sushi and 
tenderloin are not
improbable.
Tell us about YOU. Your mistress of ceremonies is a middle-aged single woman
with a great deal of swinging experience (i.e. a slut of epic proportions). My
late husband and I were swingers the entire time we were together and I've
remained active as a single. I hosted parties for 12 years at two other
locations and got back into the scene after a long hiatus. I am bisexual and a
BDSM switch, and might be seen doing pretty much anything at a party. I am Wild
Thing22151 on Fetlife, Entirelyreal
on SLS. I am in a number of the photos scattered around this site.
