>> i want you to watch. >> it's evolved into a massive movement embracing total sexual freedom. what does that mean? >> i don't think we should be ashamed. >> we are sexual beings. we're not going to apologize. >> tonight, strap in. >> you have permission just to go ahead and watch. >> i'm headed to the nation's largest swinger party. >> there are going to be people saying this is sodom and come mora. >> if they don't like it, fine. this who we are. >> they are ready to [bleep]. our journey begins in texas. yes. texas. the lone star state has an independent streak. but when it comes to love and marriage there are traditions and expectations. >> don't be too upset if i hit more than you do. >> it's here, where 54-year-old jackie and john have found their place in the community. >> pull! >> good job! >> they have a large family, love the outdoors, and by all appearances, fit right in. >> oh! i got it. >> but there's one exception. their marriage isn't what it appears to be. to understand that, you need to go back to where they first met. >> we met in high school, in wichita. jackie and i went to our junior prom together but with different people. i went with a girlfriend of mine and jackie was with a guy friend. >> when school ended, they parted ways. for 30 years, led completely separate lives. >> for me, it was -- i felt like i didn't fit in there. it was kind of a boring place, in my opinion. the first chance i got at 18 years old, i moved to florida. >> jackie stayed. >> the thought of going some place different was not even in the realm of possibility for me. >> how old were you when you got married for the first time? >> 18. >> a little girl. >> that was just the next natural progression in my life. graduate and find a husband and get married and then have kids. so, that's what i did. >> in her 30s, jackie was a proud mother of six. she loved raising her children. but as a wife, she felt adrift. >> i was this caregiver, be at home, raise the children, and make sure my husband's needs were tended to. there was never ever any concern about my own. so i felt there was always something missing, i just didn't know what it was. >> her first marriage end in divorce. when a second marriage failed she wondered if matrimony wasn't for her. >> i just resigned myself to the fact i don't know how to do this. i'm just not cut out for marriage. >> more than 30 years had passed since jackie and john's junior prom. as their high school reunion approached he noticed she had liked one of his facebook posts. >> i had a crush on jackie really in high school. she didn't know it. i was really really shy. oh, my god, it would be so awesome to meet her and talk to her again. so we started talking on the phone that night and we talked for hours. the next day, we talkford hours. >> he was so centered, calm and loving and kind. >> in that week long series of conversations we had on the phone, i fell in love. without even seeing her. >> it was then that john shared where he'd been. in tampa, he'd worked his way up in the nightclub business. john had discovered a secret dating scene and a name for the lifestyle that came with it. swinging. >> i was open-minded from a young age. i didn't see anything wrong with having multiple sex partners. i had experiences like three assumes or group sex. >> before long, john opened his own club. >> in 1998, i started getting into the swinger end of the nightclub industry. people would come in and we'd lock the doors and then we'd start having central massages and having sex. it was just a great party. >> after john dropped the news he wasn't sure what to expect. >> what was your reaction, jackie, when john told you he was in this swinger nightclub business? >> my first thought was i don't even know what that is. i immediately started looking things up, going to the bookstore and getting online and trying to find out what exactly he was talking about. i was intrigued more than anything. >> when jackie and john started dating she reflected on the rules she had been taught her whole life about sex? >> i thought back to when i was married, i did find myself checking out guys as they would walk by and look at somebody and think, oh, he's hot. i was like, you know what, i do -- i do want to try this. because this something i want to do for me. >> jackie felt emboldened to share a fantasy with john, inviting another man into their bedroom for a three assume. john was more than happy to oblige. but even though jackie had suggested the deep end of the pool, diving in took a leap of faith. >> i was just a bag of nerves. here i was in my late 40s and i felt like i was going on a first date. it was very surreal. i just closed my eyes and i thought, i'm just going to see what happens, where it goes. it just started to kind of unfold, and we just started interacting. john was kind of in and out of that picture. but then all of a sudden it was just over. we get in the car and there's this giddiness. can you believe that happened or can you believe i did that? can you believe that you were there? even me talking about it, i can see how it sounds really bizarre. >> now that i've heard how it all started i definitely have some questions. it seems just, you know, like incomprehensible, my partner is having sex with someone else right now. do you like leave your home and literally spend the night with someone else and come back the next day, or how does that work? do you ever bring people here? >> we have. anything you could imagine. >> okay. >> do y'all ever watch each other with other people? >> yes. watching her have sex with someone else is one of the things i love. >> wow. i don't find myself at a loss for words often. >> it's funny for people to say that. my friends have said to me you must not love her if you don't get jealous. it's not the case at all. because i love her unconditionally i find so much joy in anything that make hers happy. >> to me, growing up, jealousy was actually a way to show how you love someone. when john and i reconnected, from that point forward i realized i had this infinite amount of love or capacity to form whatever kind of relationship with someone else. >> the rest is history? >> yes. >> the ly style has now become such an integral part of jackie's identity she decided not to hide it from her family. >> for me, the idea of my parents having sex period kind of freaks me out. to hear that one of my parents was a swinger would -- i think i would need some time. >> she's still the same. she's still my mom, she's still the same person and i still love her. >> 29-year-old cody is one of jackie's youngest. she's been open with him from the start. >> there are people who believe that your mom leads an immoral life. >> i mean, if they have something bad to say, they can say it but you can just live your life the way you want to live it is the way i kind of see it. she's happy, i'm happy. >> in the last six years, john and jackie have built a small business empire, catering specifically to swingers. together, they run a love site, open love 101 with questions for couples about open relationships. john's first club has expanded to four cities, including houston. lifestyle clubs quietly thrive throughout the country but they're nearly invisible. chances are you may have seen a business like john's without knowing it. >> here we are. >> right. >> while openly marketed through social media they try to keep a low profile. as couples filter in for the evening, i sneak a peek at the clientele. leopard print tight dresses and low necklines. i'm feeling a little overdressed for the occasion. who are these people? if we saw them outside of here what would they look like? >> you wouldn't think they were swingers if you saw them outside the club probably. they come from all occupations, attorneys, teachers, doctors, housewives, really a slice of americana. >> we have nine grandkids coming tomorrow. >> it's still sinking in tonight many of these couples will invite someone else to have sex with their partner. >> hi, how are you? good to see you. >> if these club goers are the texas establishment, i get why this happens behind tinted windows. >> this is going to be fun. i may wear one thing and then change. >> reporter: in this part of the bible belt, jackie and john have carved out a niche for this community. it's part of something much much bigger. this week, swingers from all across the globe are converging on new orleans, the sex capital of the south. it's a weekend reservation for a party of 2,000. for all of the heroes who serve us, t-mobile is here to help serve them. that's why we're offering 50% off family lines for military, veterans and first responders. so they can stay connected, on our newest, most powerful signal ever. and now, we are also offering half off our top samsung phones for military, veterans and first responders. our service is just one way we say thank you... for theirs.
