Cuckolding

Cuckolding is a form of play or relationship within BDSM and fetishism in which one person (usually the male partner, the cuckold) is deliberately and consensually excluded from sexual intimacy while the partner, his cuckoldress, has sex with another person. The excitement comes from jealousy, humiliation, voyeurism, or the power dynamics that this creates.
