About Mason Kerrigan
Experience & Background: Mason Kerrigan is an investigative journalist with 10+ years of reporting experience covering online communities, privacy, and consumer safety. He previously worked as a staff reporter for a regional newsroom and later as a freelance investigator focused on platform moderation, scams, and digital identity. His work emphasizes source vetting, document-based research, and interviews with event organizers, community moderators, and subject-matter experts.
Specialization: Mason specializes in evidence-driven coverage of the swingers lifestyle ecosystem: venue standards, event vetting, legal and ethical considerations, emerging trends, and the business realities behind clubs, cruises, and “indy” (independent) parties. He also reviews the trust-and-safety posture of dating and lifestyle platforms—looking at verification, reporting tools, data handling, and common fraud patterns—so readers can better assess risk.
Philosophy: Mason writes with a reader-first approach: be precise, be fair, and separate rumor from reality. He believes adults deserve clear information about what’s reputable, what’s risky, and what questions to ask before attending an event or joining a community. His goal is to empower readers with practical due diligence so they can participate safely, confidently, and on their own terms.
