This maybe a controversal subject or one ignored,

I have been a true cuckold husband for many, many years and my status was confirmed when i found out my young wife had engaged in two affairs without me knowing, one of these affairs may well have given her our daughter. Thereby true to the tradItional definition i became her cuckold husband then...and still am.

Yet the modern meaning appears to be whatever you want it to be, i read mens posts wanting to become a cuck who dont have a wife or girlfriend, or others saying, my ex girlfriend made me into a cuck, or another example i shared my wife with another man, so i am a cuck, well to me thats a threesome!.

My view is i use is the traditional term, offering these examples from Google,

What is the true meaning of cuckold?

"A cuckold is a man who has been betrayed by his wife. If your wife cuckolds you, she is cheating on you with a different man. This is an old-fashioned word you can find in many Shakespeare plays, though cuckolding is certainly older than Shakespeare and will always exist as long as there are marriages".

Q What is a cuckold?

The original meaning of "cuckold" is actually super old.

"A cuckold originally meant someone who was the wronged husband of an adulterous wife.The world cuckold itself is actually pretty darn close to being super ancient. The first recorded use was in 1250 in a satirical poem called "The Owl and The Nightingale."

Or finally:

"A cuckold is the husband of an adulterous wife; the wife of an adulterous husband is a cuckquean. In biology, a cuckold is a male who unwittingly invests parental effort in juveniles who are not genetically his offspring.[1] A husband who is aware of and tolerates his wife's infidelity is sometimes called a wittol or wittold"

or,

What is the modern definition of cuckold?

a cuckold is a man whose partner has sex with other people, with or without the man's knowledge and consent. in a modern context, it's used to describe a specific sexual fetish (cuckoldry, where a man enjoys watching his partner have sex with other people), which is how the word continues to be in modern vernacular.8 Jun 2020

I suspect any poll result will be influenced by the age of any respondents.

Wow. I'm the first one 'in' on posting. Okay. Here goes...

I am over 50 and I picked option 7 tractorman2 . Having started the LS as a HW couple, I now embrace being known to Iris' lovers as a cuck
(or most often they call me 'cuckboy'). For me, there a difference between a HW-couple (what I would say is the 'modern style')
and a Cuck-couple and I choose the latter as I like and get juice from it.

Yes, that includes (and encourages) humiliation and domination and finding suitable 'bulls' is a real challenge. However, when one is found
it's a very fun ride.
:D :whip:

Yes. This is the most relevant definition for me.

Yes

It's too bad the term wittol is archaic. I think it's a far more precise description for most of the husbands on this forum.

I am a wannabe cuck but without the humiliation or celibacy. My wife asked me if I was a cuck and we had a discussion about this, because she isn't yet a hotwife. She does sometimes tease me with the term!

I appreciate you putting this together.

When we originally started doing “this,” I couldn’t nail down whether we were/are a hotwife couple or if I was/am a cuck.

While I enjoy watching my wife get laid (and she likes when I watch and jerk), we’ve never been into humiliation, forced celibacy, and/or certainly not knowingly raising another man’s biological children as my own.

I was always under the impression that a cuck is simply a man who knows his wife is being sexually satisfied by another man because she makes such arrangement known to him. An important aspect, of course, is that the decision to look outside of the marriage for sexual satisfaction is entirely hers.

At some point, I wanted to commit to one term or the other (“hotwife husband” vs. “cuck”), and I chose “cuck” because it has always been my wife’s choice.

There’s definitely a psychological aspect involved, too. (Maybe this is a subtle form of humiliation, but neither of us sees it as such.) She WANTS me to watch her getting off. She WANTS me to see her satisfy another man. She WANTS me to see that her bull/bf makes her cum better than I do. He truly does. He’s simply better at sex than I am!

I feel like that makes me a cuck.

But now I’m rethinking it all since your post/poll.

(sigh!)

After reading all above, I wonder if I qualify as cuckold. We started as swingers having sex with other couples. I found that while doing the swinging I would much rather watch my wife having sex with other men and jerk off while doing so. I encourage my wife to have the sex so I can watch, my wife loves seeing me watching her. We do it for our fun, not the guys she is fucking, we call them toys.

We're the same way. We refer to it as Cuck-lite. All the sex with 2/3 less humiliation. Seriously though, we really don't try to label it. We're just having fun.
