Vices & Desires
A private community for kink, swinging and open relationships.
Friends, groups, munches and events with ID-verified adults. Nothing is visible from the outside, and consent is built into how people meet and message.

Safer by design
The protections other sites leave to luck are part of how this one works.
- Verified adults only
- Every member passes an ID check before they can see anyone. We keep a pass or fail, never your ID.
- Invisible from the outside
- No public profiles, no member list, nothing in search engines. You choose which members can see you, too.
- Messages you choose
- Someone who isn't your friend gets one message, filed as a request. Nothing more until you accept.
- Labels you both confirm
- Partner and dynamic labels appear only after both people say yes, and either can remove them at any time.
- Tags that don't make you a target
- Sensitive tags like Unicorn or New to this stay hidden unless you choose to be found by them.
- Photos checked first
- Profile photos are reviewed before other members see them, and location data is stripped from every upload.
