What is cuckold?

Cuckoldry is a sexual scenario and a subgenre of erotic roleplay involving a person being sexually betrayed by their partner. The betrayal is typically, but not always, sexual intercourse between the partner and another person, often with the cuckolded person being aware of or even present during the act.

There are varying degrees of involvement and consent. Some relationships incorporate cuckoldry as a consensual element, with clear boundaries and communication between partners. This falls under the umbrella of kink and ethical non-monogamy. In these cases, the cuckolded partner may derive sexual excitement or pleasure from their partner's sexual activity with another person. This can be a part of their shared sexual fantasies.

However, non-consensual cuckoldry is a form of infidelity and abuse. It involves the partner engaging in sexual activity with another person without the other partner's knowledge or consent, and/or psychologically manipulating a person into accepting it when they are uncomfortable. This is considered a betrayal of trust and can be very damaging to the relationship and the betrayed partner's mental health.
