Where Did the Ducklings Come From
Clinical Sex and Relationship Therapist Sue McGarvie (SexwithSue.com) started "the Ducklings" from her local sex and relationship workshops conducted over the last few years.
Think of the Duckling group as a place for flirty, sassy, adventure outings. We wanted a club that wasn't a mainstream service group (like Rotary), but wasn't over the top either. We wanted to connect with like-minded fun people that "get it". We started planning date nights (for both couples and singles) and fun group activities that were way more creative than dinner and movies.
We also wanted a kind place where there wasn't any "mean girls" or a place where you got hit on incessantly. Where you could dance as a single and be welcomed. Where drama, gossip, and general "dumb-ass behaviour" wasn't tolerated. Where inclusion and warmth were the order of the day. A community of the nicest people we've ever met felt at home. We wanted to be our sexy selves but with grace and staying "on this side of the line". We like to think that The Ducklings are that community. Don't be scared, come and try us out. You will be very welcome.
