WHERE DID THE DUCKLINGS COME FROM?
We are the Ducklings, a safe community of people who are sexy, sassy, flirty and fun.
You may notice on this site that we often refer to Ducklings or Ducks. Why is that? What are these Ducklings we are referring to?
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. She is our Mama Duck!
We are community of the nicest people you’ve ever met. We are based in Ottawa, Ontario – but have chapters in other locations.
Where else can you meet lifelong best friends as adults?
Our members are awesome people who enjoy getting together to safely flirt, have fun, and expand our knowledge of all things sexy. We do not allow aggression or drama, and no mean people need apply as being kind is a basic value in our group. No mean girls, gossiping about other members or exclusion.
While we’re not a dating group, a surprising number of love matches have met at our events. Nor are we a swinger’s group, though some of us are non-monogamous.
We’re a community of people who are not afraid to dip a toe into something new because we’re not alone. It’s way more fun, and far safer, as a community.
Duckling events are designed to be both sexy and fun. Our members are half couples (some married more than 30 years) and singles (gay, straight, or “its’ complicated”). We’re primarily over 25 but under 65, with most between 35 and 50. We are firmly in the middle between quiet and gentle, and crazy and wild. Anyone over 21 is welcome to attend our virtual or in person events.
