A Woman's Fantasy, In White, Cotton Briefs


http://tinyurl.com/nz239fv


White Cotton Briefs ...



Sparing no puritanical minds, Rougedmount's smoldering fantasy beautifies the object of her desire, and vindicates her desire for it.
____________

god… it’s so absolutely, perfectly, brilliantly deliciously divine, seeing a well endowed man in his cotton underwear. seeing the plain of his stomach, the slightly increasing fur as it disappears downwards into the band. the delineation, the curves, the swelling definition of his concealed endowment is almost more than i can take.


If honesty is a virtue, should not women be honest?
my mouth salivates after going dry. i instinctively swallow and lick my lips after biting them. it is virtually impossible to raise my eyes or look elsewhere as the perfectly packaged mound of his flesh is right there. almost touchable. my imagination is flying into every naughty thing i have ever seen or witnessed, as i envision myself taking him.

a band of white, a delicate veil that hides nothing and showcases everything while maintaining a modesty that is irrelevant considering all that it exposes to my eager eyes. i can see his resting shape and imagine him in the full bloom of arousal. i see the curved perfection of his softest and most vulnerable sack, tightly held front and center as if he was at the height of arousal.

i can imagine him elongating, swelling and taking shape beneath my heated gaze. tenting the material until it is threadbare and provides a shadowed low light of definition which highlights his arching pillar which is striated with a myriad of veins and ropy topography. the indentation of a plumed head almost makes me breathless, as it’s heart shape inspires my pulse to race.

with everything i have seen, in truth, i have actually seen nothing and his modesty is intact, his virtue upheld by the meagerest of thread counts. as much as his appearance in his briefs has impacted me, he is in fact covered. it is only in my mind that he is also covered by my mouth, my hands and my body as i force his physical response into turgidity and a resulting tumescence as his arousal seeps through the cotton in a perfect damp spot of desire.
____________

The pretense of an untainted mind, or courage to speak honestly -- which is virtuous?

Women who embrace their desires and affirm the beauty of them are welcome to offer their thoughts for a post. Be vindicated.

Fanning Smoldering Cuckold Desire Into Flame

Being a man is more than having a penis.

Honesty, truth and disclosure play their own part. Manhood also means knowing and sometimes admitting one's limitations. Admission of inadequacy and declaration of need implies vulnerability And for some men, that in turn can mean facing their worst fears. As much as they may desire and truly need complete honesty, some men simply cannot be vulnerable and truthful. Not even with the one they love most in life. In fact, especially not with her.

For many a man with an undeveloped penis, it can be a solitary horror to discuss sexual issues with his wife. Certain matters assume 'official secret' status. He is loathe to admit his most intimate issues with 'her;' much less has he strength actually to discuss such things in detail. Instead, he wallows in secret inhibition and insecurity. 

Still, the temptation to openness and honesty with his wife is strong! But even as honesty tempts disclosure, fear and insecurity gnaw his resolve, paralyzing him in inaction. Try as he may, many a small man 'jams' when trying to host this conservation. No matter how much he wishes it, or how how hard he may try, he can never be honest about his desires with his wife. And as he can never be honest, he cannot mature sexually, and their sexual relationship cannot progress.

'...one of the things that has become abundantly clear and fascinates me to no end, is just how many small-endowed men crave this same fantasy. And, they don’t just want to watch their wives having sex with another man; they want the other man to be supremely more endowed and even better in bed. The fascinating question that must be asked is why do so many small-endowed men harbor this fantasy?'
The small-endowed man knows that his inability to discuss intimate matters with his wife is unmanly to the extreme. Yet he will not repair this because he cannot. Most likely, he neither wants to stop it, nor CAN he, since his cuckold fantasies compel an extremely powerful erotic response. These dynamics work together making it impossible for the small-endowed man to escape this conundrum. Consequently, it eats at him relentlessly.

Cuckold desire sticks. Once truly beholden to it, men don't abandon it. They do not shake this fetish. It is extremely addictive to them. Knowing this, some women put this knowledge to very good use. So do some well-endowed lovers who want to seduce and bed married women. They have even been known to elicit an under-endowed husband's perspective and help in delivering up his wife to be seduced by the stud.

Understanding these dynamics, some wives resolve their husband's dilemma for him. They broach the subject FOR their husbands. Then they arouse him with these thoughts in order to seduce and elicit his ardent consent for her to take a very well-endowed man.

Well-endowed men understand this.

So do other wives married to Mr. Little.

Do you?
____________

If you are a wife who wishes you could broach this with your husband, how do you feel about the fact that many small-endowed men share this fantasy?

If you are a small husband, is the fetish_suppression/fetish_arousal conundrum the irresistible temptation that draws you in time and time again, gradually wearing you down and eliciting your internal consent for your wife to experience the pleasure she deserves?

Internet Porn Is Fascinating ... Read On!

Do we look? Of course we do! When she meets a man, the first thing a woman notices are his looks. And it is said that as many as one woman in six is addicted to some form of porn. That's right. One in six.

Lest it be protested that such statistical inventions arise from aging hippies nostalgic for Woodstock era 'free love,' know that these figures were prepared from a survey published by Today's Christian Women. If anything, these are conservative numbers. Of course that reports on women who struggle with pornography. But what of more casual users?

In 2007, the Sydney Morning Herald reported that Australians were visiting pornographic websites including sexually explicit dating websites in record numbers. Of those, one in three were women.

Imagine that this one woman is your wife ...

When you wake up, she is gone!

Night after night after night, she is up late...

Reading and watching.

And what she reads and sees makes her think and think and think and think.

It arouses her. She becomes wet...sometimes very wet. It is pleasant, pleasant enough to make her want more. That pleasure convinces her of Nature's intention for her. Convinced of that, she learns to surrender to her thoughts. She begins uncontrollable fantasizing every day. 

Two nights ago, you had a huge fight over it. She cried and swore she’d quit. Now you awake at 2 am and she’s gone! Silently you walk to the computer room.

She’s totally fixated and oblivious to your approach. This is what you see. Now you KNOW. She's hooked. Don’t you just hate it? Don’t you just love it? Isn’t it the most inexplicable thing you’ve ever met?


Watching Internet Porn is Fascinating. Isn't It...

Helpless, Erotic Compulsion


Cuckoldry is associated with feelings of shame, weakness, helplessness, trepidation, insecurity and fear. Yet guilt-fueled arousal and erotic excitement also reach exponential intensity. Men have reported spontaneous orgasms, and women have reported becoming soaked – instantly, and that merely from discussing this with her or his spouse. If Nature intends for this phenomena to lead to sexual activity, a more effective mechanism could hardly be imagined.

____________
In many marriages a time comes when secret yearnings cannot be repressed or ignored. Like so many ocean waves, secret thoughts or desires surface repeatedly. Time and again they are pushed back down inside from where they came. We do so out of fear of what might be – if the truth were told.

But for some, this strategy fails. It fails because no less than ocean waves that recede after each wave, those desires return with redoubled force. It may be a week or years, but that desire will return. Each time, it gathers more strength. Each time, the shock of it lessens, and the appeal of it increases. These desires seem more natural and less objectionable. With each season, these desires reward the woman or man in question with greater pleasure.

Whether you resist the cuckold fetish THIS time is irrelevant. That desire will return. It will come with renewed urgency. The naturalness, beauty, pleasure, power and eroticism will make it harder to resist. The goodness, rightness and pleasure it makes you feel erodes the ability to resist. And each time, those qualities are more apparent to us. So if not this time, then the next time, and if not then, it will be the time after that.

The sense that this is SUPPOSED to be will only grow. And there is no escaping it.

Once your wife discovers the pleasures of a fantasy lover, once this desire becomes the script that controls and drives her response, she isn’t going to change. Once your husband acquires a taste for cuckoldry, once he decides that he loves it, that’s it! It’s over.

There’s really very little you or anyone else can do to save him. 

So instead, we choose to hide these thoughts; only allowing ourselves to ponder them during moments of extreme arousal brought on by sexual fantasies of the most perverse nature. But, once in while, someone in a marriage will break the normal pattern and choose to admit the secret lusts of their heart.

And sometimes, they find that their spouse is eager finally to act upon them.

Have you wanted that conversation with your spouse? Have you tried to host it? How did it go?

That Damning, Yet Holy, Defining Moment...

Dan Savage' earlier referenced 'Delving Into the Cuckold Fetish' article was picked up by the Detroit Metro Times. When that article surfaces, I take note of the reader comments! This reply to Dan's column in the DMT shows why. 

After a rocky start, this 'wife caught cheating' story turns and goes totally right! The telling of it shows that her husband was a goner from the start. Lightly edited for easier reading.
____________ 

I have been married for 5 years. I caught her cheating early on .. which I quickly broke up and it almost ended our relationship. We worked it out. BUT...
People talk about life's 'defining moments.' This wife is having one at
this instant. Her husband too. How can it ever be the same after this?

What I saw in those 10 seconds walking in on them... slowed down in my head over the next few months.

When I opened the door she was riding his huge dick.... fucking the holy shit out of him... 

When I came in, I saw her from her ass and back angle. The dick she was fucking was simply huge. And yet she took all of him. 

I Remember ... 

'...I remember her bouncing hard!'
'... Her back ... hair... ass ...  sweated so profusely .... it honestly looked as if someone poured a glass of water down her back....'
'... the bed was soaked.'
'... her screaming "fuck me!"'' 
... MY WIFE... riding a dick.... talking dirty....in my bed.'

Thoughts that Hound You ... 

'I would think about that day in and day out... I jacked off to that scene probably 100 times. I would jack off at work, jack off while she slept next to me, jack off in the shower .... my wife ... that dick ... my bed...'

'We'd have sex... That image would come to mind and BANG .... I was done! I couldn't hold it after remembering that .... Not even for 20 seconds ....

'I had to tell her that I wasn't upset with her... that I wanted her to continue fucking men... Finally I talked her into letting me watch one time. One time turned into weekly planning. Soon she started planning on her own. I fell in love with humiliation and chastity. She rather took over the Dominant role.'

'My question is, she now told me she wants me to watch her with my co-workers and my closest friends...Her desire to humiliate me is strong and I enjoy it. But is this too far?'

____________
Some Observations ... 

Sure, the sex that he saw was very intense; but so was his reaction to what he saw. And that reaction was sustained long term.

It wasn't just the shock of his wife with another man. It was that the sex itself was so shockingly powerful, shockingly sexual, and above all, so shockingly different.

For the first time, he got to see his wife having sex from a third person perspective. And what he saw was sex that was excruciatingly sexual and unimaginably beautiful.

The intensity of it and her complete abandonment to his huge penis, was shocking. She more than succumbed; she surrendered completely. She ravished herself on his huge endowment.

And she did this early in their marriage.

Cuckold's Journey Begins...

That's telling in itself. But see what it did for this husband! He ended their session very quickly, yes, but nothing about this event ended there.

Oh no, that was only the beginning.

Month after month after month, he 'lived in the moment' of what he saw! He could not stop it. He could not escape it. He could not ignore it. He could not curb it. He could not contain it in some corner of his mind.

Instead, the power and intensity of that moment worked in him. It did not diminish in strength but grew and increasingly controlled him. It became irresistible.

Most astonishing of all is the WAY this changed his thinking, wants, desires and needs!

It Was the Defining Moment...

Years later, he recalls and describes that instant with the same, vivid clarity as when he opened the door and saw it for the first time. Every minute detail burned into his memory indelibly.

Everything. Changed. Forever.

This was a defining moment. The instant he saw his bride plunge herself on that huge penis, it was a 'done deal.' Now it was just a matter of time and processing.

Returning him to that same scene day in and day out, his own mind continually made him a voyeur to his own cuckolding!

What he first saw as profane act very quickly became a holy ritual, one that commanded and elicited his helpless arousal and acknowledgment, and utterly worshipful surrender.

The Strangest Thing...

That scene affected his sex life with his wife. It did not make him impotent but hyper-sexual. It demanded and received his unqualified and urgent participation. It redefined his psycho-sexual response.

He admits that he could not help ejaculating prematurely. It dominated his imagination, MAKING him see and relive that scene over and over and over again endlessly. It made him fantasize incessantly, aroused him continuously, excited him uncontrollably and DROVE him to masturbate with furious compulsively.

It happened morning, noon and night, day after day, week, after week, month after month. His wife, that penis, his bed. He was helpless to stop it or even to try to resist it. What he saw refused to be denied. It MADE him ADMIT and SUBMIT to cuckold desire.

Whatever else he MIGHT have expected, it wasn't this: that the ultimate and irresistibly compelling aphrodisiac would be none other than his wife's impalement on a huge penis!


Nature's Curious Ways...

Yet in the end, he had no choice.

Fantasizing uncontrollably, with arousal raging every waking hour, his response was beyond his control. After months and months of it, he was done. He had no fight left in him. He found that he could not live as he was. Helpless to resist, with no end in sight, he was coerced to admit that he was beaten. How else could he deal with it? 

Continuous, helpless arousal drew him into the passion and sensuality of his wife and her lover. It forced the honesty from him. It forced him to speak the truth. He had no choice. He as much as his wife acknowledged the power of the situation, and of that enormous penis -- not only over her, but over his ability to resist the meaning and image of what he saw! In the end, it reduced them both. In the end, it seduced them both.
'I had to tell her that I wasn't upset with her...that I wanted her to continue fucking men.'
What he first ended quickly become irresistible. He not only consents, he craves that other men serve his wife. He not only needs it, he ASKS his wife to continue sexing other men. Clearly, she wasn't the only one seduced. The huge penis that seduced and mastered his wife equally reduced and mastered him!

And it took all of 10 seconds.

The rest was just time and processing.

Another Beguiling Point...

Forgiving his wife's 'infidelity' was remarkable. His admission that it powerfully aroused him was right, good and courageous. But another intriguing matter needs exploration.


Her response to that huge penis brought him into a state of near constant arousal. The very extremity and constancy of his arousal became his tacit approval of her dalliances.

If her impalement on that huge penis
made HIS arousal rage, on what ground can he deny her the same? He is helpless to resist the eroticism of that moment. If he takes extreme pleasure in seeing it, how can he deny HER right to the same extreme, erotic pleasure?

His arousal not only effectively quashed his capacity for effective resistance; it also took away any argument he might otherwise make against it!

So on one hand, his arousal devastated his ability to resist his cuckolding; on the other hand, it PREPARED him to first accept, and then DEMANDED that he crave it.

Ultimately, his arousal WAS his consent.

Intention and Design...

For this husband, the sheer beauty, power and sensuality of his wife and lover's indulgence was profoundly human.
'Riding his huge dick...
'fucking the holy shit of him,
'sweating profusely...
'as if someone poured a glass of water down her back...
'the bed was soaked, her screaming 'fuck me!'
He doesn’t say so, but what follows strongly implies that in those few seconds, he knew intuitively and for the first time, he was seeing sex as sex truly is supposed to be, sex as Nature intends sex to be.

And if that is true, HOW can it be wrong to say so?

Some men are seduced and tormented by the pleasures of cuckoldry in months in advance. This man walked into the experience in an instant of time. Yet he was no passive observer. In months of constant arousal, uncontrollable fantasies, continual masturbation, and arousal heightened as never before, he participated fully in his own cuckolding.

If some men achieve this pinnacle of pleasure only through cuckoldry, it is worth asking why that is so.


The Changes That Came...

She was ready for change. Did she keep sexing men after her husband walked in on them? We're not told, but it seems so. Earlier, he said:
'I had to tell her that I wasn't upset with her... that I wanted her to continue fucking men.'
Note: He’s not asking her to 'start' but to continue. Then there is this:
'Once I talked her into letting me watch one time.'
Again, it isn’t ‘DO this one time,' but let him WATCH one time. Most likely, she kept sexing men even after he saw. She was empowered to continue with our without hubby's approval! And Nature saw to it that he soon caught up. It just took him some time.

Transfer of Power...

Sharing his sexual power with this wife, the stud greatly empowered her over her husband. A one time request to watch became a weekly thing. And note: the HUSBAND who ASKED to watch, and SHE who DECIDED.
'Once she started planning on her own, I fell in love with humiliation and chastity she rather took over the dominant role...'
The strong likelihood is that she continued her personal, sexual development. She quickly widened her sexual experience and knowledge, and discovered new preferences that she would never otherwise explore.

She loved what other men taught her, and what she learned, she practiced with her husband, including humiliation and chastity.

She now wielded the sexual power in their marriage.


Returning to Intention and Design...

But there is still that question: why is it that some men achieve their pinnacle of pleasure only through cuckoldry? And the implication is absolutely fascinating! 

Note well -- at the same time SHE is gaining sexual experience, knowledge and power from well-endowed lovers, the SAME experience reduces him to chronic arousal, ceaseless masturbation and compulsive fantasies of that huge penis taking his wife!

The very thing that empowered her AT THE SAME TIME reduced him to helplessness! What readied her to dominate prepared him to submit. Again, it happened AT THE SAME TIME.

This is absolutely fascinating.
It is utterly beautiful.
It is extremely erotic.

Nature knows what it's doing.

Whatever one believes about evolutionary biology, these dynamics do work in many cases. And while funded research may not [yet] support it, such dynamics seem to exist with such regularity as to allow for this reasonable hypothesis:

Nature Intends This...

This little blog is read by people around the world. Sometimes as many as 500 visit its pages in a month. Cuckold curiosity and desire crosses many cultures and societies. Many men desire and even CRAVE to be cuckolded, even as it terrifies them. Why?

They desire cuckolding because millions of years of evolutionary biology incline them to it. Sex is vital for the survival of the species. Husbands desire it because they're supposed to desire it as part of Nature's intention to ensure the propagation of the species. 

Arousal prepares for sexual activity. Since cuckoldry so often arouses husbands suggests that the mechanism evolved to support reproductive function. But cuckold arousal in many instances induces husbands to step aside as another fulfills that function.

The question this man asked [is cuckolding with co-workers and close friends too far] may be reasonable. But there seems little chance that he escaped her wiles. His wife:

1] Loved to dominate him.
2] Strongly desired to humiliate him.
3] Had years of experience dominating him.
4] Knows how much pleasure he takes from it.

Concluding Thoughts...

While many husbands plot and scheme for years to convince their wife to take another man, some wives find themselves in the opposite role. They may desire their lover and wish they could bring their husband onboard.

If they understand the dynamics, and if they cooperate, a wife and lover can groom and shape a husband to be cuckolded. As they two work together, a husband's power is limited and his options are few.

Women gain much IF they know how to bring that desire to the surface of their husbands' consciousness. When HE desires this, the result is a win-win-win.

Do you envy what this wife was able to do? Have you ever wanted more than your husband gives? Have you ever wondered what you're missing? Do you wish that you had the sexual power to do what she did, or that your husband would agree to this arrangement?

Whatever your thoughts on cuckoldry, do you feel that this is what sex is supposed to be? Can you be satisfied with less and not resent it at all? Did this post arouse you enough to make you wet? How do you think your husband would react to this article if he saw it?

Have you ever 'tested the waters' with him in any way? If so, how did this go? Were you ever pleased by attention from another man? If your husband knew, how did he react

Has your wife ever cuckolded you? Do you wish she would? Did you ever share this with her? Would you show her this post? Do you wish you could share it with her? If your wife read this post, how do you think that she would react? If your wife had this experience, how would you react? Could you do 'better' than this man? Or are you in a situation now?

Why Does My Husband Want Me to Have Big Cock Sex?

Nothing is on the internet permanently. Sadly, the blog from which today's article is taken exists no longer. But here and there, a few posts were saved and submitted by other parties. Written by 'Hottie' and her husband, Steve, today's post is one such offering. All the text is original, but bold, red text was added for emphasis.
____________
by 'Hottie'

From Insecurity and Jealousy to Acceptance

'When my husband first revealed that he fantasized about wanting to watch me having sex with a well-endowed man, I was quite naturally surprised by his admission.  Prior to his small penis acceptance, Steve was somewhat insecure and jealous, and then, when he accepted his smallness, it’s as if a new “enlightened” Steve emerged from his shell. It took me awhile to adjust to this sudden and complete change in him.  But, I love the “new” Steve.'

Small-Endowed Men Especially Susceptible!

'I knew some men fantasized about wanting to watch their wives with other men, but one of the things that has become abundantly clear and fascinates me to no end, is just how many small-endowed men crave this same fantasy. And, they don’t just want to watch their wives having sex with another man; they want the other man to be supremely more endowed and even better in bed. The fascinating question that must be asked is why do so many small-endowed men harbor this fantasy? 

Why Do They Want It?

Many men on this blog, including Steve, have expressed this desire, but what we haven’t delved into was the why?  What drives and motivates them to crave this so much?'
'Because we have a good relationship, we have explored this topic together and had many enlightening conversations about it. I have to confess, I do love talking about this subject.  We both know it turns Steve on, but we wanted to know why it’s such a turn on for him.  As a result, we have developed a hypothesis as to why the idea is so appealing and exciting for him.  We believe it’s a combination of both a natural and biological reaction.  Let me explain.'

Instinctively Knows We Deserve More
'Steve already knows he has a small penis and accepts it. I know he has a small penis, but when I remind him of that fact, it really, really turns him on. As he has explained previously, it’s as if he knows instinctively that I deserve a man who has a more satisfactory cock size.  Some women on the blog have admitted that their husbands are too small to satisfy them, but their previous lovers, and now their larger dildos provide what their husbands can’t. For these couples, they have discovered that size does matter.

He Needs This

While our relationship is different in that Steve can satisfy me even with his very small penis, his internal truth is that he believes I could be even better satisfied by a larger male, who could offer me what he can’t.  We both believe his reaction is quite natural.'
'We have also discussed several articles and books on a wide variety of sexual topics.  Sexual selection and how we evolved as humans to live in groups was extremely interesting. We have also discussed Dr. David Ley’s book, “Insatiable Wives” which is excellent and describes the biology of women and their sexual needs.

Nature Intends It

Dr. Ley, also has a blog, “Why Women Stray,” where he also addressed the issue of sperm competition as follows:  “As Christopher Ryan, author Terry Gould, and researchers Baker and Bellis have suggested, there is a biological response playing out here, that affects a male sexual drive.  After watching their wife with another man, the husband is prompted biologically to have longer, more vigorous sex, has a shorter refractory period between erections, ejaculates harder, and his ejaculate contains more sperm.  Nearly every couple I interviewed told me that after an episode of the wife having sex with another man, the couple felt like they were “in heat.”'
He Can't Help It!

'What they described is exactly what happens to Steve every single time I use a dildo to pleasure myself. It may not be another man, but his strong reaction to it is almost identical and unbelievable. Even at the mere site of my dildo, Steve’s penis goes from 0 to 4 throbbing inches in a heartbeat. So is his response a biological reaction? We believe it may very well be both natural and biological, and this may explain why he craves it so much…he simply can’t help it.'
'Of course, others may feel it isn’t natural or biological at all, but whatever it is, this craving lies at the very heart of the small penis teasing, cock comparisons and fantasy cuckolding that so many small endowed men crave as well. Honestly, I didn’t get it at first.  I mean, why would a man want his partner to compare his underdeveloped penis with that of another male who is substantially more endowed? Wouldn’t he be ashamed, embarrassed or even humiliated

The Bigger the Stud, The Better Hubby Likes It

Surprisingly, the answer is quite the contrary for small endowed men; he usually becomes incredibly aroused. What’s even more fascinating is, the greater the size disparity between your husband and the male you are comparing him to, the more aroused he becomes, which I believe, cements the notion (in his mind) that you need and deserve more cock than he has.'
'Those of you who have been following this blog for any length of time know that I love my husband’s small 4” penis and am quite satisfied by it.  But, have I been fascinated by the descriptions women have provided on this blog as far as the advantages of big cock sex?  Yes, which is why I posed the recent question on the blog, “What am I missing?”  My hubby and I both find it fascinating.   Will I ever try a large one knowing it would turn my husband on if I did?  No, because I would never risk our relationship to try it, and we are both very comfortable with that decision.   It’s intriguing and fascinating, but I would never try it.  But, because I was curious, I encouraged my hubby to order his “Big Boy Cock” extension, to see what that feels like.  Granted, it wasn’t the real thing, but I have to admit I really enjoy it.  And of course, Steve really, really liked it too!'   :)
'To summarize, we do feel there is something very natural and/or biological that explains Steve’s strong reason for wanting this, but that may not be the case for you, or you may attribute your desire to something entirely different. So, how do the rest of you feel?  Do you believe the reason why smaller men crave this fantasy is a natural and/or biological response?  Or, do you attribute it to something else entirely. We’re sure others who peruse this blog will be curious to read your comments.'
