Why so many cuckhold stories?

[Dilly30]

It is my least favorite type of story but it seems to creep into all the areas that I like. :/

Those who write them find that it's a popular theme on this website--more so than on many other erotica story sites. Look at the keyword tags before reading a story. If it includes keywords for elements you don't like, don't read the story, and you don't have a kick if you did read the story anyway. If the story has a theme you don't like and it wasn't identified as a keyword tag, then you do have a legitimate beef about not being able to avoid reading a theme you didn't like.

The problem comes when...

There is no clue that it's a cuckhold story until you're half, or in some cases, almost done with the story. Then, SURPRISE, he was his wife getting gang banged and his dick got hard.

That's what pisses me off. A very simple, "This is a cuckhold story," in the beginning would be most appreciative, at least by me.

 

[sr71plt]

Let's not start whining about this too. The stories that are here are here because they are what people wanted to write and submit here. There's no quota or anything. And this is an adult site; I'm sure some authors here write for pantywaists who can't take care of themselves on a porn site, but many don't. Just cope with it or go read Readers Digest.

Please excuse me if this is a dumb question... I'm pretty much ignorant to most things sexual... what is 'chuckhold'?

cuckhold, chuckhold, cockhold or is it Chuck's hold on cock?

 

[nakdsub]

Sorry there sr but...

I thought the whole idea of these threads was to discuss, or (whine) as you put, Once again, I guess everyone but me is entitled to express their views here.

I believe you certainly do your fair share of "whining" on these threads. I think I'm entitled without being berated by you!

That said, I will continue my "whine."

Cuckhold stories should be labelled as such!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do believe it was you who told me once, "If you don't like what's being said, no one is forcing you to join the thread."

I don't like these, or pretty much any story involving cheating/infidelity. However, you can scroll down to the end of a story and see the tags -- but you have to hope the author put some sort of cuckold or cheating tag there.

Otherwise, you just have to take your chances and click off if you don't like it.

Pennlady...

I know, and that's usually exactly what I do; however, I have had good storied ruined that way as well from reading a comment that spoils a good ending.

98% of these stories are either labelled or easy to spot, but every once in a while, someone writes, what looks to be a good story, only to be sadly disappointed ten minutes into it. When that happens I feel I have been tricked into wasting my time.

Well, there's no real easy way, I guess. I generally don't bother with the tags, as I don't feel they're in a convenient place. I know I make these comparisons a lot, but at StoriesOnline.net, the tags are right there with the title and tagline (along with a note on the sex content). Much more convenient and easier to avoid what you don't like.

On the other hand, this is free, and you can't complain too much.

A married man whose wife commits adultery is a "cuckold". I am not certain, but I believe in Olde Englyssshe commonlaw, a "cuckhold" was leasehold estate whereof the tenant is a cuckold.

Oh! Just splurged coffee on the keyboard laughing. If the joke was intentional, it was brilliant.

'Cuckold', or rather 'cuckauld', is the old French word for the male cuckoo's mating call. Since the male was forever being 'cuckolded' by his wife leaving eggs in other alpha males' nests the etymology is obvious.

There was a female equivalent word, 'cuckquean', but it never took off, probably because us double- X chromosomes take no prisoners.

And I'm whining about people who can't take responsibility for themselves as adults coming to a sex story site and expecting parenting spoon feeding and protection against the big bad bear. If you get to the point in reading a story that is getting too squeamish for your delicate constitution, you could just click out of it and go looking for some other story that wasn't going to warp the rest of your life and that you think everyone should protect you from.

Grow up. Join the world.

And, no, that wasn't me who told you "if you don't like what's being said, no one is forcing you to join the thread."

What I'm saying is that if you can't be an adult about taking care of yourself in what you read and are that squeamish, perhaps you shouldn't be playing in an adult story site. This gets old hat very quickly.

More than other sites really?

 

[elfin_odalisque]

nakd, whilst sr is, as usual, somewhat OTT, he has a valid point.

If you enjoy reading erotic stories on a site like this then fine. Just like in a bookshop or kindle, you can 'buy' something you don't like. All you do is click back and try something else.

I disagree with PennLady and don't like SOL's attempt to 'dice and slice' stories with butchers' tags. In the airport you read the blurb and make a punt - for good or bad.

Erotica - not stroke fiction - will destroy itself if it goes too far down the 'tags' or 'categories' route. To be offended at stories on Lit that you have 'bumped into' but don't like is a tad hypocritical IMHO.

 

[nakdsub]

Sr

Why not take you're own advise. It you don't like what is being said in a thread, "CLICK OUT!" Who is forcing you to read my comments?

You talk about growing up, yet you sit and complain about someone who has simply stated their opinion. Sounds to me like you never got over being the school yard bully in grade school that I'm sure you were.

There are many of these threads that I read I would love to comment on, but I do not believe my comment would be appropriate so I take a pass.

Others have commented this is a free site. They are right, and as I have stated many, many times, the best of them all.

 

[sr71plt]

More than other sites really?

About incest/taboo, certainly (the OP could more likely comment on the high number of those stories here), but about the strange mix our Loving Wives stories have taken on too, I think. Of course no scientific evidence to put forward for that.

The real point is that it wasn't a particularly thoughtful question to begin with. The writers chose what proportion of stories there are here by what they write. It's not something under anyone's control other than the website structuring what they will permit to be posted.

It all comes down to pulling up your big boy/girl pants and writing/reading what you like here that's permitted to be posted here and leaving the rest to be read by those who like to write/read that. And if you're too squeamish to permit that to exist, you'd best just find someplace more protected and willing to cater to your delicate sensibilities to read.

In other words, time to grow up.

Apples and kumquats. This is a discussion forum, not a private reading area. If you make a comment here I don't agree with, I jolly well can comment on it. That doesn't exist in the realm of your private reading of the stories here.

And my comment is that it's time for you to grow up in your reading habits and not expect this site or the other writers/readers to cater to your delicate sensibilities.

Elsewhere you've posted ad nauseum about not liking how your stories are treated here and that you've pulled them. OK, fine. Your decision. We don't need to keep hearing about that, though. Eventually you'll catch on that you aren't the interior decorator here.

 

[PennLady]

I disagree with PennLady and don't like SOL's attempt to 'dice and slice' stories with butchers' tags. In the airport you read the blurb and make a punt - for good or bad.

No offense, but what has that comparison got to do with anything? At an airport or a bookstore, I can read a summary, which I really see as no different from the tags. You use the summary or blurbs to decide if you like it or not, right? If it starts off telling you about Lady Whoever in Regency England, and you don't like that, then you put it back. How is that different from the tags? All the tags do is tell you what the story contains -- which is what a summary does.

Erotica - not stroke fiction - will destroy itself if it goes too far down the 'tags' or 'categories' route. To be offended at stories on Lit that you have 'bumped into' but don't like is a tad hypocritical IMHO.

These are two different things. I disagree with the first sentence, or at least I'll ask how it will destroy itself. How does it destroy itself by telling the reader what's inside? And how do tags differ from the categorization here? Those are just general tags when you get to it, and I know what tags I don't like.

I agree, though, that you take your risks on Lit. I've encountered a number of romance stories, for example, that involve a cheating spouse, something I really dislike (except in certain circumstances). So I click off. But if I'd seen the same story on SOL, it likely would have been tagged as such, and I would have avoided it. I'm not mad about finding it on Lit, but the SOL tags would have saved me a little time.

I seriously don't see how the tags are a bad thing.

No one has bothered to answer the OP's question.
LW, as a category, is, by definition, about "adventurous married women and their mates." So, you have three very broad categories of stories in them: monogamous tales (wife and hubby getting it on-maybe romantic, erotic, exhibitionistic, bdsm themed, fetishistic-you name it); eroticisized cheating wife tales (classic version: wife is a slut and hubby jerks off while watching, etc.; the classic 'willing cuckold' tale); and the cheating wife tales, where wife strays, and hubby usually finds out, typically is less than pleased about it, and then the aftermath is explored (revenge, reconciliation, etc.; the "unwilling cuckold' tale).
As to the "why?" I can't speak to the willing cuckold stories, it's not my thing: maybe there is something hot about fantasizing about a highly sexualized wife, knowing other guys want her, etc. I don't know. The unwilling cuckold stories are ones that I frequently enjoy. They provide an intense dramatic element. They often have redemtion, growth, etc.-themes I like. The revenge-oriented ones are attractive, I think, to guys who desire justice (maybe a few embittered divorced guys who are living vicariously through the stories. I also see a lot of mysogenists commenting those stories a lot-what they are thinking is beyond me.
I've noticed cuckold themes in Ex/Voy and EC from time to time, and even in Lesbian and Incest-I suppose the wife who suddenly discovers the joys of clam-diving or mommy/son sex is gonna incorporate cuckoldery almost by definition.
Another guess that I have is that a lot of women (married or in a committed relationship) fantasize about sex with others (as do men, for that matter), so a sex story site that explores sexual fantasies is gonna explore sex with others than your mates. It just goes with the territory.
I've learned to avoid certain stories/authors based upon story titles, categories, descriptions, comments, and keywords. For me, that includes not just willing cuckold stories, but also rape/nonconsent, gay/bisexual male, and bdsm stuff (with some exceptions). In the end, the product is free so the only thing I'm out is a little time to read and to occasionally scrub my brain clean of the smut I don't care for.
Curious about a woman's perspective on cuckold stories.

Yes, I did. Twice. It's a duh question. There are so many cuckold stories here because there are that many stories submitted by writers, who evidently have found that they like this venue for those stories.

Beyond that, quesitoning another's fetish is also sort of a duh question.

You kinda, sorta, answered the OP's question, once. Your non-answer: "The stories that are here are here because they are what people wanted to write and submit here." It answers the question in the same way a little kid will answer a question.
"Why did you hit your sister?"
"Because I wanted to."
Your first response didn't answer his question at all, you simply noted that writers of that type of story find it is popular here-that is a fact (maybe), but not an answer.
I don't know that sexual preferences/fantasies/interests are properly referred to as 'fetishes,' necessarily. But, accepting that an interest in cuckold stories is a fetish, what's wrong with wondering about what's behind them? Not a "duh question," in my mind. In fact, I think it is very interesting.
For instance, I have lesbian friends who like watching gay (male) porn. I think that is fascinating. Why so dismissive of other's interests and curiosities, sr?

 

[sr71plt]

It perhaps wasn't the answer you would have liked, but I think it was the definitive answer.

Sooooo many folks want to redecorate this place to meet only their desires. Yes, I sometimes suggest some redecoration too--but to broaden the offerings, not to limit them to just what I like to write or read.

My answer is, I think, the fundamental one in keeping with the website philosophy. Appreciate whatever is here that you like to write/read--and leave the folks who like to write/read something else the hell alone to enjoy themselves as well. And take responsibility for yourself in what you write and in managing your stories here and in what you read. It's the adult approach; some folks never can grow up, though, in expecting others to cater to and protect them.

The question was, "Why are there so many cuckold stories?"

SR's answer is correct -- there are so many of [any category] b/c this site has few restrictions and apparently a lot of writers like to put cuckold situations in their stories. What more of an answer do you want? The only way you can get more is if you ask the authors of those stories why they wrote them.

And likely you'll get an answer like "because I wanted to."

 

[nakdsub]

Sr You keep making my point for me...

First place, I never said a thing here about pulling my stories. YOU DID! Second, why is YOUR opinion worth more than mine, ANSWER; It's NOT.

I have the same rights in a free forum as you! I will continue to express myself in anyway I see fit and address any thread. I would suggest, if you do not like my comments, DON'T READ THEM!

I made a simple point. If a story is labelled a willing cuckhold story, you have the option to read or not. If you chose to read, then don't complain. My complaint is when a story masks itself as a non-cuckhold story, only to reveal its true nature in the end.

I read one story what was well written about a man who had suspicions his wife was having an affair. He set up an elaborate plan to catch the two together. Everything he did lead the reader to believe there was going to be a confrontation when his fears where realized. It was 3 pages long and it wasn't until the last paragraph, when I saw his wife with another man, that his dick got hard and he masturbated while watching them. That rated him 1* from me and a vow to never read another one of his storie.

That is what I'm talking about and I believe it is a legitimate bitch. So, sr, if you don't like it, now know exactly what you can do with it!
