cuckolding
Partner's sexual unfaithfulness
Cuckolding is a sexual practice in which one partner, typically a wife, has sex with others while her partner watches or knows about it.
The arrangement often involves an element of humiliation or submission for the watching partner.
The term derives from cuckold, a man whose wife is unfaithful—historically a source of shame, now sometimes eroticized: They're into cuckolding.
