Welcome, Penhold! If all your posts are as helpful as this one you will be a valuable member indeed. I've been to Frankfurt many times but I've always relied on the very expensive SPs. You've convinced me that the FKK clubs are the way to go. And since I speak German fluently, even the smaller clubs should work for me. Bravo!
Thanks for the welcome.
If you've never been to an FKK, you will be surprised and very, very happy when you try them out. If you want to be more adventuresome, try some of the "partytreff" clubs such as Beverly in Solingen (it is highly rated and should be experienced once in your lifetime - although I doubt I would return as I found it a bit dingy). If you're into voyeurism or group situations, and especially if you can speak German and are fairly young and decent looking, you will get some interesting action at Beverly – especially on “bizarre” or “fetish” nights.
At FKKs, you pay an entrance fee of about 50 to 60 euros and, if you select a girl, a “per session” fee (typically 50 eu for 20-30 minutes of conventional sex, and an additional 50 euros or more for bbbjcim, etc. ). You will have a 100% success rate with every girl at an FKK (in theory they can refuse but in practice they won’t unless your hygiene is bad). Basically, all women are “pros” and available at the same price as the prices are standard. There is no “upselling” or negotiation of prices, other than the “set” rates for specific additional services that are made clear when you enter (and which you should ask about). You’ll even see overweight elderly German pensioners there having a good time as success with the women is guaranteed.
At a partytreff like Beverly, however, you pay only one all-inclusive entrance fee (varies by night but about 100 or 120 euros) and that’s it. All the women there (especially true at Beverly) will typically be amateurs who are there solely for a good time and their own gratification. Some partytreffs, however, hire a few pros to help stimulate the action and some other partytreffs are essentially all-pro. The price typically includes a buffet style dinner (at least it did at Beverly, although the dinner was typical buffet quality) and drinks (Beverly has soft drinks, wine and beer available). Whether you score, however, is solely up to you. If you speak German and are relatively young (under 40) and good looking, success is almost guaranteed. If you have a partner who’s into swinging, you’ll have a really good time no matter how old you are or what you look like.
If you rent a car with a GPS, not only will you find these places fairly easily (addresses are on Kaleu's site, which you can find through wsgforum) but also you can often locate and stay in small hotels outside Frankfurt for a fraction of the price of hotels in Frankfurt. Rather than rely on the internet, for hotels I rely on the many good guide books to hotels in Germany – the Michelin Red Book is one of the best and has never steered me to a sub-standard hotel (it is issued each year and also has all the prices/services available at each hotel set out so you can see the prices before even deciding whether to try them). Good clean rooms with a great breakfast are generally available for only 60 euros/night at small hotels within 20 minutes driving of most FKKs.
If you don’t have GPS, stop at one of the gas stations and buy one of the good 1:250,000 maps. Many of the FKKs are in somewhat out of the places that are difficult to find (Bernds is especially hard).
At most FKK clubs, the girls are totally nude although they also often have “dessous tag” (lingerie day) where the girls wear lingerie. The guys generally walk around with a large bath towel wrapped around their waist. To avoid answering the obvious question – yes, the girls are typically fully shaven.
The atmosphere of the premises and attitude of the girls varies from club to club. At some, the girls are allowed to approach you and ask if you want to “party”. A simple polite “not now” or “no” will get them to leave you alone if you want. Otherwise, you can spend time talking to them before deciding whether to “party”. It’s much, much easier than trying to deal with the “vanna dance” routine in Toronto strip clubs. At many clubs, the women are not allowed to approach you until after you indicate to them that you are interested (I have a “divining rod” between my legs that seems to be pretty good at popping up to indicate my level of interest!).
