With all the threads on open marriages, wife-sharing, cuckolding or whatever people call it, I'm curious about how common or uncommon it is.

This is not about cheating. This is where both spouses are aware and informed.

This is not a story telling thread nor a shame-the-sinners thread.

It's also not about fantasy worlds or what you wish might be. It's for real world married couples.

Let's try to be honest and not skew the Poll.

This can also be for couples who participated while together but are no longer together for reasons other than this topic.

My husband works away a lot and we are both very horny but we only have safe sex andI tend to go more with other women
 
We have lived in an open marriage (34yrs), somewhat out of necessity, but also pleasure in our private life. Now that we are older, it is mostly me who plays and mostly at home for hubby to watch and enjoy that way.
 
We have been swinging together with other couples and the occasional single lady for the past 15 years. In addition, she has a free pass with one particular guy who has been after her for over ten years (they still haven't hooked up yet). I have a free pass with black women (wife is not into black couples, but she knows I enjoy the company of black women). We try to accommodate each other's needs and interests.
 
Swinging is one thing, sharing is one thing and multiple partners at once...we have both said we could never do the open marriage thing though...sorry to those that enjoy it but I can't wrap my head around it...to us it wouldn't be cheating if we were both there even with another person involved (no we haven't done it, just talk) but even with "consent" it would still feel like cheating
