>>262You're right about everything except it being unnecessary, I think. Being able to communicate things like this is important and shared words help with that. It's also important for people to have names for things. A lot of initial posts around cuckqueaning are like
"oh god I'm so glad what I was lusting after has a name".
It's just that the existing terminology sucks.
>>233A first step would be setting out and linking relationships between the combinations of concepts involved. I'll freestyle up a few, being as specific as possible. That'll help get things out in the open. If groups of things recur a lot in many cuckqueans, that'll be a clue for terminology! Kick the definitions around and suggest things I missed!
Foundational: Cuckquean
(n., in fetish sense) - woman who enjoys their partner (who would otherwise be monogamous) having sex with other women (
or people? does it count as cuckqueaning if the male partner mainly fucks men?).
Non-reciprocal - unlike swinging/open relationship - since the fetish involves the cuckquean remaining exclusive to her partner. (Or is it possible to be a cuckquean in an open/swinging relationship if you still enjoy your partner's activity in a "cuckqueany" way?)
Well-understood is
Emotional Motivation: Cuckqueans' motivation seems to fall into two main categories. One is emotional masochism from being cucked and the degradation & humiliation that implies. The other is pleasure gained from their partner enjoying more and varied sex with others. The motivations are not mutually exclusive. We already have terms for these, but they're not in consistent use. Humiliation type is widely referred to simply as
cuckquean, while the second adds "compersive" to form
compersive cuckquean. (I understand this to be due to the history of "cuckquean"'s revival as a term - the re-coiner of the phrase was very, very, very humiliation- and degradation-driven. Apparently a war over the term on Fetlife erupted some time ago, with the humiliation types claiming the compersive types weren't cuckqueans at all.)
There might be more to this, but I'll leave it for now.
Other Woman: The Other Woman has a huge muddle of characteristics relative to the cuckquean. Different cuckqueans seem to prefer some mixes of characteristics over others. Some I've seen recurring are:
- Attitude towards the cuckquean: Domineering, cruel, mocking, friendly, ignoring, etc.
- Status relative toward the cuckquean: Higher, Equal, Lower, undefined.
- Power relative to the cuckquean: Yes/No. Some cuckqueans enjoy being co-dominated by the other woman directly or indirectly, others
- Sexual Interaction by the cuckquean: Voluntary, non-voluntary, none. Whether the cuckquean enjoys interacting sexually with the other woman. Forced-bi component comes into play here.
Partner: Oh god, too many characteristics. I'll think about this later.
Other stuff:
Finding the Other Woman: Some cuckqueans do all the recruitment for their partner, to the point of him never meeting the other women until introduced for sex. Some help. Others aren't involved at all, enjoying watching their partner do all the discovery and work of attracting new women.
Involvement in Sex: Whether the cuckquean enjoys becoming involved in the sexual act. I've noticed that most cuckqueans do enjoy watching the sex if they can, but not all enjoy being involved in it. (Involved in the sex doesn't necessarily mean sexual contact with the other woman - fluffing, cleanup blowjobs, or being directly under the man and the other woman while they're fucking doggy-style all count.)
Proximity to Sex: Some cuckqueans don't want to be anywhere near the sex. Others enjoy being in the same house or being able to hear it. Others want to be in the same room as it.
Hiding: The voyeuristic thrill of seeing the sex but hidden from its participants seems to be a big thing for a lot of cuckqueans - peeking through the door, hiding in the closet, etc. It's not a thing at all for others.
I guess that's a start?
