Oz Dating

A proposal to turn an old theatre space in Edmonton into a venue for swingers parties has been met with strong local opposition.

This is very similar to what occurred in Brisbane, Australia just recently. Seems that almost wherever you go, swingers are deemed sinners!

Dating sites continue to grow in popularity but there are also lots of people who feel a bit burned by them and conclude that ultimately they don't really work.

However, recent research conducted by the consumer group Which? has shown that a substantial proportion of members do actually find love on many of these sites.

Here's an amusing (and intriguing) story: A pile of 30 sex toys were found lying in front of a house in the Northern Territory. Showing good Aussie humour, locals have decided to rename the street "Dildo Boulevad".

This is notable, since from time to time you hear about people in an embarrassingly named street being ashamed of its sexual connotations and trying to get it renamed more respectably.

A Briton has been arrested for organizing swingers parties in Bangkok. This is ironic, given Thailand's reputation as a mecca for sex tourism.
