Recent Men's Health Magazine article on Howwife Couples

[jjj]

Did anyone see and read the entire article. I saw a summary of it, and it seemed to cover the topic in a positive and insightful light. Men's Health Magazine is a very good mainstream publication with a large readership base.

Just read it online. Well researched and matter of fact.

Thank you for sharing this. I just read it and it in fact does report us CNM “open marriage” couples in a positive light.

Slowly it seems we are coming out of the closet and becoming more accepted by monogamous people.

The more often “mainstream” media outlets portrays the Hotwife Lifestyle in a positive light it lowers the barriers for other married couples to try it.

Another aspect of our society loosen up on social norms more men are comfortable in asking a married female out on a date and a growing number of females are receptive of that and accept the offer. May not lead to sex but a huge confidence boost to the wife.

A married female friend of my wife had read an article in a mainstream ladies journal magazine about the benefits of the Hotwife Lifestyle, instead of saying why would a couple try that her response was sounds like fun, I will have to get my husband to read that article….. who knows another Hotwife couple in the making

Although I usually like men's health that much, I think the article explained hotwifing in a great way and put it into a good context.
Only cuckolding - explained as a sidenote - got a somewhat strange definition from my point of view.

I'm assuming the Men's Health article is behind a paywall. There are a number of articles in Psychology Today about polyamory, hotwifing, and cuckolding - I like this one that was written in 2022:

at my place the article is not behind a paywall - here is the link:

Thanks!! They have a few other articles on ethical non-monogamy too! ;-)

I thought you were already a hotwife couple; or were you referring to your married female friend? Would her husband want to be a hotwife husband?

[Wesley Hudson Valley]

Hello, isinlarsa:

Yes, my wife and I are a Hotwife couple. As for the married female friend, her and her husband have agreed to tried the lifestyle, now they just need to find the right man. She is motivated to look and flirt to find one.

I completely agree. I used to subscribe to it. "Men's Health" publishes excellent articles, many scientific, about nutrition and exercise. It used to have a section dedicated to dating and intimacy.

Its complementary publication is "Women's Health". My wife subscribed to it for a while.

Is that article in the latest edition? If it is, Ill buy it.

Is it a good or bad thing for it to "come out of the closet"?

The article validly observes hotwifing is so hot because it's so "subversive." What if society evolved to redraw its norms so as to make it commonplace, acceptable, or the governing norm? Would it matter? How would the true rebels among us restore a taboo element to it to keep it edgy?

Good question about coming out of the closet.

After many years, with our adult sons teasing us and making snide remarks about being swinger; Susan cleared things up at a family dinner and told them that we were non monogamous. They looked at us and smiled.

They also asked who we hooked up with, which we would not disclose. So they threw names at us. Every name they threw out was correct..LOL!

We did that in part because we did not want them thinking that we were cheating on each other, and we do not consider ourselves swingers.

Most of our close friends know of our lifestyle and to the extent that we know are accepting. If someone wants to judge us so be it. We are good parents, well respected in our community, we love each other and have had amazing relationships with certain friends over the years.

One more interesting thing. When we told some of our friends that were already in the lifestyle, they told us they somehow suspected it. People, particularly those wired like us, sense our actions and behaviors.

Any article that starts off in a sex party is bullshit.

My wife has been active in all this for many years, if gave me $1K and told me to take you to a sex party I would give the money back: I would have no clue as to how to even start looking for one.

Found the article on Facebook Mens Health. Looks like the article might have came out 3 years ago. I’m not sure but that’s what the dates and responses are alluding to.

My wife and I had a conversation last night about this post. As freespirited as she is about me posting her photos here and telling snippets of our stories, she is deathly afraid of our kids finding out after we (she) dies. She's imagining the kids stumbling across the shoeboxes in the attic, so to speak, and the scene of the kids finding our hotwifing stash playing out something like the movie The Bridges of Madison County, only a XXX version. They won't understand why Mom was in those videos having sex with other men. They'll think she was being disloyal to me in those slutty videos. So over my dead body (literally) she's planning on deleting and destroying all of our pics, videos, and stories.
