Your reply is very well thought out and articulately expressed. I have been one of 'those guys' since I was 18, 'those guys' being guys who like having a gf/wife that other guys get to have sex with. I have certainly wondered why I enjoy that aspect of life but I have never delved too deeply into those feelings, and certainly not with a mental health professional. I may be afraid to discover the root of my sexual preferences.
I LOVE to watch other guys with my wife but I also love just knowing that she is having sex with other guys, even when I don't get to watch. The juxtaposition of a loving suburban wife and mom also being a cock-craving slut turns me on. I like being around other guys, in normal everyday situations, who are fucking my wife or who have fucked my wife.
Trying to ascribe traits to people based upon their gender (and forgive me, but I believe that their are only two genders) is difficult, as there are many variations of interests between and among genders. I do not consider, straight, Bi-sexual, or Gay to be genders but behaviors driven by whatever forces.
That being said, I think that generally, men get turned on by what they see or visualize and women get turned on more by what they hear and feel. Men are much more visual. Men can watch porn for hours, and I think that women who do watch porn at all, tend to only watch it long enough to get off. The porn industry did not prosper based upon women viewers.
Guys can and will screw others with little regard to the feelings involved. Sticking one's 'thing' into other people is much less intimate than getting someone's 'thing' stuck into us.
The original question was about cuckold marriages being 'real'. I forgot to mention that in over 20 years of lifestyle fun, and from attending swing clubs, National and Regional lifestyle conventions, and vacationing many times at Hedonism II in Jamaica, we have met and become close friends with many lifestyle couples.
We tend to gravitate towards other couples like us, who prefer for the wife to play with other guys, as opposed to couples swapping partners. We have been friends for many years with several local couples like us who are in very long-term, very loving and supportive marriages. Personally, I have never lived in a monogamous relationship. My first wife and Kate were/are both hotwives.
The dream can be real...

It is definitely real, I just didn't know about it that's all. I still don't know another couple in this lifestyle. Maybe that's what drove me to come to this site.
But one thing I want to comment on ...and I think this is a common theme I see on here...."The juxtaposition of a loving suburban wife and mom also being a cock-craving slut turns me on." In high school I was a slut for sure. Now, even in this lifestyle I don't consider myself that way although there are times when I want to go back to the high school feelings but I won't let myself because I think they were destructive and caused me to feel self-doubt and have deep insecurities . Having sex in front of my husband is something HE wanted. Not me. I don't think on its own that it is slutty. Yeah we got into this because he found out about an affair. Now, if we were in some different forum, like some deep analysis forum, you could certainly argue (and maybe it's correct) that having an affair is "slutty". Just depends on your Definition of that word. Now, I'd be the first to say that it can get wild and depending on the mood and the setting the language can get graphic. Is that slutty? I say it's just part of sex. My definition of slutty is for someone who has loose morals. Even that seems open to lots of debate. If anything you could say my affairs (he didn't know about all) were loose morals and therefore slutty. That could be deemed slutty, but having sex in front of him as an agreed upon thing....nah, not in my book anyway.
And then there's this term "cock-craving". I don't see the connection that having sex in front of my husband is cock craving. It's sex -- maybe with a twist but he and I could be having the sex (which we do). There's not really a craving here. It's not like I'm saying honey I can't get enough sex so let me find other guys cuz you are too tired. It's NOT that way. And I cannot speak for others but I would guess that it's not about a sex craving (I could be wrong here), it's about a kinda kinky way for a couple to find sexual gratification. I think it's just as gratifying for him as it is for me. I know he cums very very fast. He loves this. Takes me longer, much longer but I enjoy it (usually). In fact, I would say it's MORE gratifying for him than me. This is just me and everyone is different, but when we are doing this, I don't always have a climax. I can enjoy it without a climax but doesn't always happen for me. He always always does. And oh, the guy I'm with always does too.
And finally, I'll come back to a point I think I made in another post...this lifestyle my dear, is a guy thing. The woman isn't saying...sweetie, please watch me in front of another guy. The woman isn't saying...honey, will you please fuck another woman in front of me so I can watch. Nope.
So, Rob, I would argue that your wife is NOT a cock-craving slut. She is doing this for you. I'm not suggesting she doesn't enjoy it, but my guess is she's doing it for you. Enjoy doesn't equal slut and enjoy doesn't equal cock craving. Hope that doesn't lessen your sexual enjoyment over watching her or hearing about her dates.
