Cuckolding- An expression of Power in a FLR
Men are born with a core desires to please and serve the woman of his heart. Unfortunately
most couples succumb to societal expectations and never openly acknowledge or formalize Her
natural position of authority . It is not surprising that as women grow in power outside the
home that men are openly expressing their desires of submission inside the home . This desire
for submission is too often expressed in only the sexual sense and I regret that many
mainstream women considering a Female Led Relationship ( FLR ) are completely turned off by
the male fantasy components and therefore never experience the joys of female
empowerment. I believe for a FLR relationship to truly work the woman must have real power
in the relationship that goes far beyond the male fantasy leveL I live in such a relationship but it
has taken some time and good communication to get to this point . Strangely ,in the beginning
my wife was willing to play out some of the fantasy elements in the bedroom but was very
reluctant to actually take a real life position of authority in our marriage. She is still growing and
maturing but it is very clear that she is now in control. Her previous marriage ended at the
hands of an unfaithful husband which caused her great pain and a tremendous loss of
confidence Her interest in adapting our marriage to a FLR grew quickly when she began to
realize that husbands in a FLR rarely stray or even show interest in other women . I believe the
added security of a FLR was the driving force behind her decision to accept the concept and
completely embrace the dominant role in our marriage.
I recently discovered a popular physiologist by the name of , Ester Perel on u-tube while
researching the concept of “ cuckolding “ in a FLR. Although Miss Perel never brings up this
topic she has become very popular by challenging the basis of absolute and total monogamy in
marriage . She brings to point that It is rare for couples to admit that they have fantasies that
include other partners and even more rare for a marriage partner to admit that they actually
desire another individual. This is somewhat ridiculous when you consider that everyone has
fantasies and desires that go beyond our partners . Miss Perel questions the end game dynamic
of divorce that is part of the “ cheating “ effect and looks deeper at the motive. I consider her to
be absolutely brilliant and find her very entertaining.Ultimately she concludes that affairs
generally happen as a result of boredom rather than an actual loss of love. It would seem that
women and men are equally looking for a way to “ feel alive” and add back the excitement that
they first felt in their relationship. Ms Perel refers to couples that are willing to challenge the
traditional relationship in all it’s failures as “pioneers”. She does not support open relationships
but rather challenges couples to be more open and honest about their feeling inside the
relationship while exploring and expanding the traditional boundaries of marriage. I find this to
be very interesting because I believe that couples engaging in a FLR are truly pioneers in that
they have found a dynamic that brings back the excitement that all couples long for.
I have never accepted the idea of “ cuckolding “ as being part of a FLR but I have noticed that as
my wife becomes more comfortable in her dominance she is also experiencing a new level of
attention from the men she encounters. I cannot possibly explain the roller coaster of emotions
that this attention causes me and this is the reason for my research. It seems that her position
of authority is taking us in a direction that I never considered. I still do not embrace cuckolding
in its entirety and cannot imagine actually watching my wife with another man. However, she
recently began communicating with an old school flame and actually saw him on a recent
business trip to another city . She has not shared any details and I have no idea if they were
intimate. I believe this was more of a “ taste test” with plausible deniability to gauge my
reaction in real life . We are deeply in love and neither of us want to endanger our relationship.
I found the experience to be unsettling but still exciting in a way I cannot describe. When she
returned home it seemed that she had regained her youth found a new level of Joy and
excitement in her life. It is strange to consider but it really goes along with what Miss Perel
teaches. Somehow embracing a deeper level of submission that includes letting go of my
expectations of her fidelity has enhanced our love and relationships more than I could have
ever imagined.
I know for many, my ideas seem crazy but how crazy is the idea of entering into a traditional
marriage when you consider that over 40% of men and women engage in secret affairs within
their relationships. These affairs typically end the relationship and the cycle of love and deceit
begins all over again. Maybe women were never designed for monogamy ! Maybe the ideal
man that provides her family and security over a lifetime was always a compromise to her
sexuality . Maybe the man loses desire and respect for the woman he possesses and enters the
chase again in hopes of finding that woman he can never truly own! My life experience would
suggest that these truths apply to nearly all couples to some greater or lesser degree. I begin
each day competing for my wife’s attention and we have never been happier.
I have learned from Miss Perel that I have always been a pioneer. I love to explore new ideas
and experience excitement in all parts of my life . I hope my comments will encourage all that
read my words to challenge “normal” and start looking at each day as a new adventure with the
person you love. Explore the FLR concept in reality rather than fantasy. It can truly be a
practical way to add excitement to your relationship in a way you never believed was possible.

Nicely written piece. I like the way it gently invites people to expand their thinking.
ReplyDeleteStill, for me, whether it's "socialization" or whatever, even with her being the big letter in F/m, I wouldn't stay in a cuckold relationship. After all is said and done, LOVE has been generous to me and my possibly anachronistic attitude works perfectly.
Keep up the thoughtful provocations.
Thank you for your generous comments. Composition is certainly not something I am comfortable with.
ReplyDeleteI well understand your position on cuckolding and I still share many of the same ifeelings. I think the real point for me was not so much about cuckolding but rather the assertion of power. I think men seeking a FLR nearly always have an an outline of what they want their new relationship to look like and forget that the F is in front and larger than the m. The idea of a FLR Is really a pretty hard sell when you start drawing the lines on her authority to fit your desires.
I lived for many years as a dominant in most of my relationships. Always being " in charge" is a weighty responsibility even while your sitting in your easy chair. I know from my time as a dominant that I always felt empowered to enjoy the attention of other women as part of the role . I really do not think most women entering a FLR will ever actually make cuckolding part of their relationship but a man asserting his expectations of her fidelity may well be a challenging the whole concept of a FLR as well as the future of the relationship.
It sounds like these issues do not apply to your relationship or even most FLR 's . I am so thankful for Mz Kaylee and the open and thoughtful content of this blog. My director is not the same as yours but we both gain from the exchange of ideas.
Very best reguards

John,
ReplyDeleteI liked your theme of challenging the norm. Those experimenting with FLR are doing just that. You need to be open minded and willing to step out of your comfort zone to make it work. What's interesting is that once you start down the path, you realize it is not so crazy afterall and it becomes easier to challenge the norm. Overtime what becomes the norm to you is not so normal to others but it really doesn't feel that way. I always feel like those who are not giving FLR a try, have no idea what they are missing. FLR is a much better lifestyle than a traditional relationship in my opinion.
Mz Kaylee
DeleteI absolutely agree. A FLR has a constant elb and flow of energy and excitement that is simply not found in the traditional relationship except possibly at the very beginning . Female empowerment removes all the power struggles and discontentment found in traditional relationships and replaces it with harmony and excitement. The " norm" seems really ridiculous once you experience the true benefits of a FLR.
Take care

A thought provoking post and well written.
ReplyDeleteThe whole basis of an FLR is to empower the woman in our lives, and to find enjoyment in serving them. An FLR serves to provide women a way to exercise power, to satisfy her wants in the relationship. Cuckolding is an extreme use of that power. For the the man, cuckolding is the ultimate form of submission. Men in general, are to various degrees, competitive. The thought that he has to compete with her lovers for her affection and sex, will have the cuckold upping his game in service to her. The risk to the relationship, is that women’s emotions and sex are closely linked. She may chose to pursue a more permanent relationship with her lover. If the man in the FLR is taking proper care of his woman, the desire for her to have other lovers will not arise.
Ron,
Deletethank you for your comments. I completely agreed with all your points until I reached the closing one. Yes , cuckolding in very risky and it is true that she may pursue a more permanent relationship with her lover but let's not forget that it should her prerogative and is part of her empowerment . Women do often align their emotions with sex but I think you ignore the fact that women are multi dimensional and not easily completely fulfilled by one lover. As a submissive can you fulfill that longing she may have on occasion to be " taken" and ravaged by a strong and completely dominant man? I think not, I can role play the part but how does she wipe the vision of your last discipline session from her mind as she tries to imagine that you are all powerful ? Do you really want the power to withhold this experience? How do you reconcile that power with your submission?
I agree and think that your ideas and expectations of her fidelity are pretty normal even in an FLR mostly because of the risk factors that you bring up as well as the fact that having multiple lovers can be pretty dangerous. But,I also think that as women age they become pretty content ( and bored) in a traditional marriage. Opening the door to a FLR can awaken their desires ( let's hope) and sometimes her desires may carry you to a place you never expected. I want my wife to experience all she desires and I believe that is part of taking proper care on my woman .
Take care
John Dalton
John,
ReplyDeleteYou make a good case, that a woman’s power and freedom should not have restrictions.
I don’t want you to think that I am close minded as to the various degrees this type of relationship can attain. If my wife wanted to cuckold me, I would be open to experiencing it.
If a woman loves you, enjoys your submissive behaviour, and values the marriage, she will most likely not want to risk losing that. From what I have read, cuckolding is rarely part of people’s FLR’s.
I would like to read what female readers here have to say about it?
Cuckolding is most definitely not for everyone and should be approached with caution. I encourage people to be open minded in a FLR but open minded does not mean you have to do everything. As an example, I have no desire to do cuckolding. I have no desire to have a relationship with any other man. It just does not appeal to me. Making that choice does not make me less open-minded. Having said that, I have no issues with those who do cuckolding. When done right, it can be a wonderful experience. I also want o point out that cuckolding is not necessarily done for sexual benefits to the wife. There is a significant emotional component to cuckolding for the man. Cuckolding can be a tool for the wife to exert humiliation and dominance over her husband, which is often craved by submissive men.For some women, that may be the primary driver for cuckolding and the sex is just an added perk for her.
ReplyDeleteI do not agree that a woman's power and freedom should not have restrictions. It is a nice bonus for a woman if her husband is in a place emotionally where he can accept this but let's face it, the reality is not everyone is in that state of mind. Using cuckolding as the example, if the husband has major concerns about cuckolding then it would be irresponsible of the wife to force it upon him. The R in FLR is for relationship and a relationship means that both peoples needs, desires, and concerns need to be taken into consideration. FLR is not a dictatorship. It is very important to understand that.
This is a great discussion. Overall you are both touching on important aspects of a marriage. My experience has been that FLR does spice things up, lead you on a journey into new experiences, and help the couple focus on each other. These are all things you've both touched on in your comments. I hope other contribute to the discussion. It would be great to hear from anyone who is in a cuckold relationship. This would also be a good topic for a guest post form anyone who has experience with cuckolding.
Cuckolding certainly isn't for everyone, but it has been a wonderfully enriching experience for my wife and me. Paradoxically, empowering my wife to explore her sexuality with other men deepened the sexual bond within our marriage and re-energized our sex life after many years of marriage. Good post to get people thinking about this. I think you make an excellent point about the importance of communication.
ReplyDeleteHello Mz Kaylee.
ReplyDeleteThe highlight of any guest post is having you comment and share your position on the points! Thank you!
Your comments indicate that you have a good understanding of all that the term " cuckolding " implies and means to couples that " do cuckolding ". I know my wife has no idea what the term means and would be shocked to think that somehow she had been manipulated into fulfilling my cuckolding desires.I have never liked the term and believe it is a misrepresentation of what occurred in our relationship as well as most FLR relationships . I believe the idea of her authority and empowerment went beyond household choirs and the bedroom to the core of her
social and somewhat flirty personality. Freedom to her is having a man that loves her completely while accepting her playful expressions of desires for younger " cute" men that appeal to her. " Yes the steak was excellent , one of the best I have ever had but you know how I love dessert ! " She is simply enjoying the freedom of an FLR but given my jealous nature she is also driving me deeper into submission. Obviously this is a form of cuckolding but one that has nothing to do with my desires but rather her's. I really wish the FLR community could come up with a better word to describe this ultimate expression of power .
I do hope to see more comments especially from other women in regards to conventional cuckolding as well as the experience I describe.
Best Regards,
John D
I love to read such a mindful text.
ReplyDeleteThanks to John for sharing these fine thoughts so openly.
Also the comments are revealing, like much of this wonderful blog.
My wife and I were in this crisis, in which I turned to another woman because I apparently could not develop sufficiently within our relationship.
I thought that I had communicated this sufficiently to my wife and that she would accept this until it turned out that my understanding of the adventure I was looking for was different from hers. So our crisis was perfect.
But in this crisis we learned to talk about our needs, desires and fantasies more openly. After almost 20 years together, we discovered that we still have a lot to learn about how to keep our relationship alive and to make sure that we don't lose contact with each other in routine. In this way we have become much closer and know each other much more deeply than ever before.
In the last 5 years, since the crisis, we have now tried out many things, also in the area of FLR and BDSM and are still on an exciting common path. We have learned a lot of new things from each other, but not everything we have put into practice. She certainly has fantasies about sex with other men, but mainly for practical reasons she has not yet dared to take the step of having sex with someone else.
What is especially important to us in all our developments since then is respect for ourselves and for each other. Some "experiments" have a long lead time before we dare to approach them. We carefully grope our way through our emotional worlds in order to avoid gross injuries.
If we want to have sex with third parties, then these people must also be taken into account, which makes it difficult and time-consuming to carefully follow the path to this goal. So far it is a fantasy she sometimes uses to tease me and I enjoy it. That alone makes our relationship lively and exciting. There are also other issues where we feel the same way.
In the end I can say that our relationship is a process, that we are constantly developing and so the relationship to each other is always, one could say daily, new. So I am always curious where this will lead us.

ReplyDeleteTruer words never spoken
i am 65 now and am so glad i never knew the kind of woman who would do such things to a husband and still claims she loves him. But i am not surprised because some people can lie with ease. Any man who would actually put up with a wife who cuckolds him as part of a marriage to me has spiritual problems and mental problems
ReplyDeleteFlirting is NOT cuckolding! I flirt a lot and my husband is not allowed to complain or even sulk silently about it! But I would never have sex with another man.
