Might it be you are judging to much the other members?
I must concede that this may seem so, but certainly not intentional. I see no way on how to approach this subject without resource to a form of ****** questioning. I had considered a sensitive approach before I began posting, but this would lead to illusory answers and I would not understand anything.
As a fetish and a exploration for a couple to explore their sexuality it would be understandable enough. Yet, I perceive cuckoldry to go beyond safe limits, over which the couple's relationship submerges into psycho-sexual addiction. The 'swinging' lifestyle always, without exception, falls into this psycho-sexual pattern, and is always self-denied. It is devastating and catastrophic because the fractures to the relationship are rarely self-perceived by either partner, yet the reason why the relationship still remains extant for the couple is because the addiction is tasted and assimilated through the presence of either partner, and is erroneously perceived as love for one another. It could not be further from the truth.
What is interesting is that the cuck adopts to a alter-ego, submissive, feminised, and self-humiliating. This is far removed from a normal male's psycho-sexual self image through which the normal male can never supplicate himself to being that of a cuck. His partner, equally submitting herself to humiliation, takes on the role of the slut, the cheat, the Jezebel, and like the cuck, takes no counsel from her conscience. The couple's relational safety boundaries are blurred and all but disappear into the addiction. The continuation of the lifestyle is nothing more than a buffer and a balm to the constant battering at the conscience, they fear self-reproach, and the catastrophic guilt that must inevitably follow a moment's regress from the lifestyle. Yet, that is the only path out of the addiction.
What was once a monogamous and loving relationship, has been turned into nothing more than a frisson-orientated fantasy, in which the playing of the roles has sunk deep into psycho-sexual habituation. A couple's love for one another can never be defined by the wife being mercilessly fucked as a slut by someone other than the husband, and then going home to boast about it. Not by any stretch of the imagination is that a loving relationship, it is a sign of a fractured and broken one. My heart aches with despair that couples submit themselves to such self-destruction, simply for the chase of the next sexual high. Exploring is one thing, being addicted is another. Oft' times, we all place ourselves into situations that we will later regret, where we would wish for someone to come along and save ourselves, from ourselves...S.O.S.
I have stated this in other postings, but I feel it warrants mentioning again. The crux of the whole scenario revolves around the cuck and HIS consent, without it, it all falls apart, the illusion and the fantasy. This in itself contradicts everything that the cuckold is perceived as. It is the cuck whom holds the reins of the sexual power, not the woman, she is reduced to nothing more than a poor caricature of the woman she once was, a vessel of sexual relief for others. Through history, women have fought against this very stereotypical perception, they sought emancipation from the psycho-sexual chains that the patriarchial society enbounded them to. Yet women in this lifestyle, eagerly throw themselves back into such perceptual chains, simply for the illusory sake of a larger and different coloured penis. They allow themselves to become the very perception that women of the past fought against. They themselves become nothing more than slaves to their own addiction. Identifying less than a woman, and more of a vagina.
As I write this, my partner reads what I write. Suggests that I am being too forceful and strong in my observations...she cares, and so do I, hence my forthrightness. Think of me as the friend stating the things his friend does not want to hear, but being essential that they do. She holds my head in her gentle hands, kisses me softly, and smilingly returns to her previous business, content and knowledgeable of my love for her. We are each other's addiction.
I thank you for your reasoned moderation, well stated.
