Sex lives are private things and not the issue here.
It was about swingers and wife swapping and the fact thereof drawing certain people to The Villages..
I really don't think the Villages needs defending at all. It speaks for itself immediately as you enter the front gates. Everything was just as you said it would be.
HOWEVER.........
Gracie, remember that "other list" we found a year or so ago????
While we were in TV, hubby experimented with his new smart phone and found a whole enclave of them in the Mount Dora / Tavares region.
We had looked over there as well, due to the marina and lake for boating.
As grandchildren , whom we love dearly, would be visiting as often as they can, we wouldn't want to be surrounded with that sort. Better safe than sorry.
Probably much ado about nothing. I didn't get the "Las Vegas" vibes while there and we're fast asleep when all this stuff is going on anyway (if it is going on). In our town, no one gets so upset if someone says something about the lowlifes or the whatever.........because people accept that there are all kinds of folks........but in TV it seems to hit a nerve. All I'm saying is why can't people speak freely.....asking a question isn't a crime. For those who have read the bad stuff.......and wonder.........I can totally understand why they wonder.

What other list?
I am not getting upset because people are saying that we have sexually transmitted diseases in The Villages. I am getting upset because people are believing we have more than what is considered average.
No one likes to hear that some folks are saying that their beloved hometown is a cesspool.
I live here full time. I am a frog. Ribbit. I love being a frog. Don't go pickin' on my lilypad or my pond. So there. Talk all you want, but please don't repeat unsubstantiated rumors about
This Fine Place Here! (NOT YOU, senior, anyone)
And if everyone is acting like bunnies, let 'em.
If people don't have enough common sense to come to the conclusion that this lovely place is where they would love to live...then let them go elsewhere.
I am feeling a little grumpy today. Sorry.
