A wild and crazy place to retire: The Villages in Florida

41. So this article purports the entire community of 130,000 are a sex-crazed bunch?

Seems a stretch and I'm not buying it. I did not read article cuz I'm not in the mood to turn off my ad blocker so I'm really reacting to the title of this post and the snippets.

No matter where you live, you can run into people of this ilk -- and whether you like it or not, you are usually stuck with your neighbors unless you live on a boat.

Personal story as an aside: My husband and I used to go to Rooster Rock day-park, a WA State nude beach. For years, we'd spend most weekends out there. We had a large group of friends. Played volleyball, swam, sunbathed, just had a nice time. I took the kids too until they got to the age they didn't like it any more, so that was when we stopped going. Years later I ran into a member of the old group, and he told me he now ran the local swingers club. Wha? This was when I found out most all the group I'd been friends with for years were swingers. We never knew. Not a clue. There was really no reason to think anything was going on. Some were couples, some singles, just regular people.

Only clue was one time we were invited to some people's RV to play cards and were informed we'd be nude inside, both my husband and I were like, why? I like being nude in the sunshine -- not indoors. What's the point? I'm not really a nudist, more a sun worshiper (this was early sunscreen days). We thought it was odd, yet, but still didn't think much of it. Guess had we gone we might have gotten an earlier education.

Now, finding out they were all doing odd things after dark, it was shocking. We seriously had no idea. So, just because some are involved in that lifestyle, does not mean the entire community is. Just my 2 cents.
