You've probably heard of swingers, or perhaps you are one, but you may not know that there is a whole collection of nomenclature that the community uses.
Swingers, people in committed relationships who have sex with other couples or individuals, have a lot of terminology.
You may have heard of the 'pineapple' code, one of the more well-known codes.
This means that if you're in a hotel or cruise ship and someone has a pineapple, or an image of a pineapple, on their door then they're 'open-minded', so to speak.

But that's just scratching the surface of all the different terms that swingers use in their adventures.
Two others you may not have heard of before are 'dragon' and 'bull'.
Well, both of these individuals have something in common - they are both single men who are in the swingers lifestyle.
But there is one key difference, and this is who the man getting involved has sex with.

Influencer @TheImpulsiveDuo explained the difference in a video on YouTube.
He said: "One is bisexual, a dragon is a bisexual male who is single in the lifestyle, understands the lifestyle, and will play with couples."
But what about the bull? You guessed it, this is a straight man, and not in the comedy duo sense.
The YouTuber said: "A bull is a straight male, typically well endowed, that will play with couples, the wife, to help fulfil their fantasies whether it be the hot wife fantasy, whether it be the voyeuristic watching fantasies, the exhibitionist fantasies."
But there's one crucial factor that both dragons and bulls need to have in common if they're going to be in the swinging lifestyle.

The social media influencer explained that regardless of if someone is a bull or a dragon they need to have a proper understanding of swinging.
He said: "The biggest thing that both have to have in common is the male understanding what the lifestyle is about, because a lot of times guys don't understand what this lifestyle is about."
You might be wondering about single men being involved in swinging at all, as you might have heard that some clubs will not allow single men, only couples and single women, and only women are allowed to make approaches to other people.
Of course, everywhere is different, but understanding the lifestyle is still very important, @TheImpulsiveDuo explained.

"They think it's a hookup culture, everyone has their legs wide open, everyone's doing everybody," he said.
"Swingers are the most picky and selective individuals there are."
