Secrets in the Suburbs: Dr. Phil Talks To Swingers
Earlier this year (January 25, 2008), Dr. Phil had an episode where he discussed the topic of swingers and had guests on his show as well. I was not able to see the episode when it originally ran, but the wife did and was not very impressed, as a matter of fact she said it was not very good at all. Here’s the blurb for the swinger episode taken from Dr. Phil’s website:
The episode is called: Secrets in the Suburbs
How well do you know your neighbors, your friends or even your child’s teacher? An estimated four to eight million people in North America are swinging in the suburbs — mostly middle-class folks from all walks of life. Dr. Phil takes you inside the secret world of swingers, a lifestyle where couples swap partners.
Lifestyle Lovers
Nita and Walter have been swinging for the last 12 years. They say they are happy in their lifestyle, although it causes conflict. What is the source of tension in their relationship?
Reluctant Swinger
Brent has an overwhelming desire to have a threesome with his wife, Renee, and thinks about it every other day. Renee says threesomes are disgusting, but she fears if she refuses to join in, her husband will leave her.
Other Perspectives
Suzi Parker, author of Sex in the South: Unbuckling the Bible Belt, and Dr. Phil viewers share their opinions about the swinging lifestyle.
