We have set up a page for this site on Facebook
Many people have Facebook accounts, in fact many into this lifestyle have one for family and friends and another for swinging, hitting the Like here is just a vote for this site on Facebook and has nothing to do with privacy, photos or similar, those that don't wish to click on Like do not have to, but there will be those that do and that will help the site.
Its actually no different to having a link back to here from another site, of course only those with a private Facebook account that they used for this part of their lifestyle would be likely to click on Like.
We have had links like this on our Australian site http://www.swingersheaven.com.au/ for years and nobody has had any issues with them at all.
The fact of the matter is that having Facebook/ likes helps the site to rank better as it provides social signals to the Google and other search engines.
It's deeply regrettable Sofistikitty that in error the Facebook buttons caused you such grievance and I'm genuinely sorry for that.
Could everyone please note that if in the future you inadvertently click the 'Like' option, all you have to do is click it again to remove the 'Like'.
