Talk:Cuckold

ROFL, I changed this to just wife, I don't think "hot wife" is really needed and it really made it hard for me to take it seriously when I saw it. I think just wife will suffice. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.220.16.130 (talk) 18:05, 6 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Ancient talk entry, but some coverage of the term may be in order. Right now "hotwife" redirects to the article on swinging, but there is zero coverage of said term or phenomenon. --Surv1v4l1st ^{╠Talk║Contribs╣} 18:22, 30 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

"Hotwife" is actually a common term for the adulterous woman in such a relationship. Maikel (talk) 15:16, 19 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Weird that a whole paragraph about cuckolding being used more for gay men and involving chastity belts is allowed to stay up without a citation. This seems like a case of personal experience - as far as I can tell, most of the societal discussion around cuckolding involves a man and a woman. Not that it can’t happen in any type of relationship, but to say that the language is increasingly used for a very specific situation is strange and feels unnecessary. 74.73.226.240 (talk) 05:13, 13 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Agreed, it was pretty odd and doesn't seem to fit the rest of the article. Looks more like somebody inserting their own fetish into Wikipedia so I've taken it out. The Wordsmith^{Talk to me} 17:13, 13 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Quote: the wife who enjoys cuckolding her husband is called a "cuckoldress" if the man is more submissive

And what is she called if he's not? Maikel (talk) 15:15, 19 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

The term cuckoldress is used in all cases for the woman Polarbear678 (talk) 14:22, 31 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Why is there no mention of him being one of the more notorious public examples in recent times? 31.60.15.105 (talk) 17:08, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Because no-one has thought it worthwhile to include any reliably sourced material, if indeed that exists? Sbishop (talk) 06:52, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

In the Old Testament of the Bible, is the writing prophet Hosea. He wrote during the time of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah of Judah and Jeroboam II of Israel. In his book, he wrote that he was told to take a wife of harlotry (there is debate as to was Gomer a prostitute when Hosea married her or did she become unfaithful during the marriage). Regardless, she takes other lovers and it is unclear if those Hosea is the biological father of Lo-ammi and Ruhamah. Hosea is to take her back after her unfaithfulness and in that since he is a cuckold. Her unfaithfulness and Hosea's faithfulness is written as an illustration of God's love for his people.

"An abbreviation of cuckold, the term cuck has been used by the alt-right to attack the masculinity of an opponent." Oh, B.S. This is a POV issue. It's in far more general use now. (You go to the wikipedia alt-right page and the first thing you see are guys with Nazi flags.) That alt-right reference is going away. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonah Begone (talk • contribs) 13:16, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Please change "===Cuck===

An abbreviation of cuckold, the term cuck has been used by the alt-right to attack the masculinity of an opponent. It was originally aimed at other conservatives.^[1]"

to BLANK or nothing.

I've been here a LONG TIME and this is one of the first occasions that I've felt obliged to jump in. It's insulting that I have to beg to be allowed to edit. Xrayspex (talk) 14:18, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
