This is a subject that gets needlessly complicated. If the door is closed stay out. If the door is open then you may watch. Unless invited to join in it's hands off. It's simply common sense to me.

I still think you need to know the club rules for they will be telling everyone what a close door or open door means. There are many clubs where an open door means come in to play. So, people will be comfortable coming in and touching. But of course your free to say no they will back away. To feel outrage would be inappropriate at THIS particular club. And if you cause to much of a sence you may be told to leave. I have seen this happen once. That is why there are some clubs we do not make a repeat visit becuase it is not within our comfort zone.

I agree, just because the door is open, does not mean you can come in and join us, without asking. It means feel free to watch. We don't care where we are, house party, club, where ever, even if you are with a couple, you should ALWAYS ask the spouses permission, before you touch or do anything. Its called respect. Even with old friends we never assume it is ok to touch, we always ask first....and we ask BOTH partners, not just one. We try to learn from past mistakes LOL

Akron, though this MAY have been discussed already "100 + times," I haven't seen it in the 2 years we've been members. I'm glad JackDarlene posted it for the newbies.

If you're standing in the doorway with a friend, you should feel free to speak about what you're seeing in that room.
If you say complimentary things, you are more likely to be invited in -- at least for a closer look. |

We went to a club two weeks ago that made that policy very crystal clear: an open door means you're free to watch from the hallway but not to enter the room without invitation.

Most of the clubs we have been to a open door is an invite to come in and possibly play. So the person coming into the room might touch something before the playing couple gets the opportunity to say yes or no. But typically there is an opportunity to say yes or no. However the clubs make it clear what an open door means. Some of the clubs we have been to have windows with curtains for just watching or a chain across the door. I guess it is important to know the clubs rules so as to not have conflicting expectations.
