Cuckold is a derogatory term for a man whose wife is or has been unfaithful.

so the fetish would be...

Cuckold Fetish is a form of BDSM play where the fetishist gets sexually excited by the idea of their partner having sex with someone else. It is distinguished from open relationships or swinging by being one-sided (the fetishist is not free to see others) and by the dimension of humiliation or psychological pain. Fetish is the eroticization of fear, and in the case of a Cuckold Fetish, the fear is that you will be betrayed, rejected, or otherwise dismissed by your partner in favor of another.

Fetish cuckolding takes its name from a traditional epithet for a man whose wife has secretly had another sexual partner. In the fetish, however, the the cuckold knows (technically making him a wittol rather than a cuckold) although the conceit of non-consensual or compulsion is often important among fetishists.

The "cuckold" is the partner who is not having the extracurricular sex. The word's traditional usage applied only to married heterosexual men, but in the fetish scene can mean a partner of any sex in any form of committed pair-bond relationship.

Fetish is the eroticization of fears. If you are afraid of something so much that the emotion overwhelms your rational circuitry, one strategy you brain uses is to eroticize the thing so that you are flooded with feel-good hormones to cool you off. It is like a nuclear reactor being flooded with water to prevent melt-down. The fetish is like the radioactive vapor that the reactor releases - a byproduct of the emergency action with significantly complicated potential after-effects.

Fetishes are sometimes the result of a big trauma, sometimes the result of repeated absorption of a small message, sometime the result of a small something that just hit you in the right way (as hard rocks or gems can shatter if hit at precisely the right point under precisely the right conditions.)

From there, the process becomes pavlovian. Because you are getting a libidinous reward for engaging with this fear, you do so more often and in increasing doses and facing it begins to dull the fear reaction itself. Eventually you have mastered the fear and it no longer threatens to shut down your brain. But a consequence is that you now associate that activity with sexual stimulation. This is a fetish.

In the case of a cuckold fetish, the fears you are eroticizing are of being rejected or found wanting in the search for mates and love. This may mean being rejected by people you are attracted to, or betrayed by people you have feelings for, or a generalized sense of inadequacy in the gender role society expects from you.

With a fetish, you can use the erotic thrill therapeutically to manage your fears. But you need to be careful because it is easy to dig the fetish deeper and start a cycle where you need ever more extreme fantasies or realities to satiate yourself. Fetishes are also notoriously hard to deprogram, so it is usually best to find a way to manage them so that they do not interfere with the other desires of your life.

Should cuckold men wear panties?

Only if they are into that. While cuckolding is a masochistic emasculation fetish, that doesn't mean that every cuckold is also turned on by crossdressing or petticoat discipline.


What is a cuckold male?

In traditional usage a cuckold is a man who's wife/girlfriend engages in sexual activity with another male. In word connotes that the cuckold is deceived and unwilling (as opposed to a "wittol," meaning a knowing cuckold reconciled to the situation.) It appears often in medieval, Elizabethan, and Restoration literature and is also used in legal proceedings in many English speaking countries. In contemporary usage it is also common in the BDSM fetish community to denote a fetish in which a person (usually but not always male) gets a masochistic sexual thrill from their partner having sex with another person. In this usage a "cuckold male" would be a man who has such a fetish. (The use of the term "cuckold" for women with analogous masochistic inclinations is rarer but not unheard of.)


Why would a man fantasize about being a cuckold?

Cuckold fantasies spring from basic fears of emasculation and, ultimately, failure to succeed in the evolutionary imperative of mating and reproduction. Generally speaking, there is a lot of psychological freight that comes with manhood, and a lot of investment of ego. There is, therefore, a lot of fear. Cuckold fantasies eroticize that fear, a well-established coping strategy for the psyche. Unhealth aside, cuckold is a fetish word that has been popular since the 1990's; the fetish itself goes back much further I am sure. This is a fetish where a husband or wife get pleasure and excitement from watching the other partner have sex with someone else.


What means cuckold?

A cuckold is a man whose wife is not sexually exclusive with him. Traditionally, this meant without his knowledge or consent. (Hence, she was "unfaithful," having broken their marriage vows of fidelity.)A woman whose husband is unfaithful is a "cuckquean."A man who knows and accept his wife's infidelity for whatever reason is termed a "wittol," a word devolved from Old English spellings of "wise" (as in "in the know') and cuckold.Fetish usageCuckold is also a sexual fetish term. In fetish cuckolding, the cuckold (or "cuck") is the willing male partner of a female who is sexually active with other males. Outside of fetish usage, such a man is properly be termed a wittol if the couple is married. It is important to note that in fetish usage a couple need not be married for the male to be termed a cuckold.


What is the characteristic featureof a cuckold?

It depend on whether you are using the word in its dictionary meaning or its contemporary usage in the BDSM fetish world. In the dictionary meaning, the characteristics of a cuckold are that (a) he is man, (b) who is married, (c) whose wife is not sexually monogamous with him, (d) he doesn't know of and/or consent to her affairs. In today's fetish usage, a cuckold is (a) a person of either sex who, (b) gets a masochistic sexual thrill from their partner having sex with someone else.


If a man whose wife commits adultery is a cuckold what is a woman whose husband commits adultery?

The female variant of cuckold is cuckquean. However, it should be noted that the connotations of cuckoldry are currently taken to two extremes. There are some men who abhor the idea of being made a cuckold whilst there are others who relish this experience. A man who is a willing cuckold is called a wittol, but the term cuckold is used in fetish circles. (The pleasure of being made a cuckold can either come from the sadomasochistic humiliation of being "forsaken" or from the opportunity to "share" the experience in the form of an open relationship.)


What is the opposite of cuckold?

I don't know of one single word that is an antonym for cuckold. Cuckold means a man whose wife is unfaithful to him. So the antonym of that would be a man whose wife is faithful to him. Alternatively there is also the "Bull" - which is the supposed term often used for that "other" man, especially if it is frequently the same other man - essentially making him the opposite to the submissive, rejected/humiliated, relationship bonded cuckold. A cuckold is, in strict usage, a male by definition (although in fetish usage a cuckold can be either sex.) A female cuckold is a "cuckquean."


Why your husband wants you to cuckold?

Most men would not and, indeed lack of consent is part of the word's meaning. However a husband who was unable to impregnate his wife might make this choice. A man who wants his wife to be unfaithful to him, or at least consents to it is a wittol, not a cuckold. However, the word cuckolding is increasingly used in fetish circles for couples incorporate female infidelity into their relationship as a sexual kink. (The conceit of the BDSM variant game being that the cuckold in some form wishes he weren't cuckolded.) Why someone would want to be a cuckold in this fetish sense of the word is the same as why anyone would want to engage in sexual submission games - the eroticization of fear. In this case the fears involve emasculation and failure to live up to societal ideas of manhood.


If a couple swings is the man a cuckold?

Generally no, but it depends on how he feels about it.A cuckold technically is a man unaware or unapproving of his wife's sleeping around. But in it's fetish usage it is a person who gets a masochistic sexual thrill from having their partner sleep with someone else. In this later sense, such a man could be a cuckold if that is how he feels about his wife's extra-relationship sex. If he doesn't feel any sexualized sense of betrayal or rejection, but is just open minded and not possessive about sex, then he is not.


What does black owned means in the cuckold scene?

It means that the person only has sex with black people (usually men,) and often that they are a submissive to a black dominant. It is most frequently used to describe white wives who deny and cuckold their white husbands in favor of outside black lovers (and exclusively black lovers.). It often also refer to the white husband who has been given as a submissive to an outside black dominant. The phrase is used by people who combine a fetish for interracial sex with their cuckolding fetish.
