A lifestyle where a couple consensually swaps sexual partners with another couple without emotional involvement. The exchange can involve all four people in the same room or couples swapping and going to different locations. It is strictly based on mutual consent: if one person says no, it does not happen. (Some believe the practice originated during the World Wars, when soldiers would leave their wives with another man in case they were widowed).
Let's go to the swinger club to meet a couple tonight. / We are going to meet a swinger couple to fulfill one of our sexual fantasies.
Informal terms of endearment used by romantic partners to address one another. Although the words literally mean daddy or mommy, they function like babe or honey (it is common in Venezuela to use parental titles for lovers).
"Venga papi, come have dinner" / "Venga mami, let me fix the computer for you"
A rastrojo is an abandoned farm plot, and a batata is a sweet potato. This proverb implies that even if a romantic relationship ended long ago, the spark could be rekindled because something of value might still remain. (In Venezuela, a conuco is a small subsistence farm, and once it is left fallow, it is called a rastrojo).
En rastrojo viejo siempre hay batatas, girls. Never say never, look: en rastrojo viejo siempre hay batatas.
A third wheel; a person who tags along with a couple during a romantic outing. (The expression likens the awkward third person to someone wearing a large, conspicuous hat that makes them stand out).
1. Juan is playing the third wheel como mexicano for Rosa and Ramon. 2. I am not going, no, just to be como mexicano.
