I am very familiar with the first hook-up as was a prototype technician for part of my career, and use to build cicuit boards.

Where I came from from, hook-up had a bad conotation, of not only meeting but becoming intimate.

I am so glad this misunderstanding is resolved, as Red is a good person, and meant no harm.

No blood, no foul, as they used to say in the NBA.

Here's a journal article for inquiring minds...researcher's definition:

"In the literature, hook-up culture is defined as casual sexual
contact between nondating partners without an (expressed
or acknowledged) expectation of forming a committed
relationship (Armstrong et al. 2009; Bogle 2008; Flack et
al. 2006; Garcia and Reiber 2008; Paul et al. 2000; Paul
2006). The typical hook up occurs at a party (Bogle 2007a)."

I doubt if many swingers use TOTV as there would be much more easier routes to go. I am not hip to these places in the Villages, but the swinging crowd would probably know just where to head. i.e., which bars and when.

To lighten things up, I present the world's greatest apology from "A Fish Named Wanda." Sorry if there is an ad at the beginning.

the funniest part is to read Tal's post about swingers and hip, then view the ridiculosity of this video...language is fickle and shows up willy nilly as friend or foe. Oh my, don't leave out the hypen. hook-up.

America's culture has devolved so that the word hook-up doesn't mean what it used to.
