There's a word for the joy you feel at seeing your partner happy: compersion. It's often used by polyamorous people to explain the warm-and-fuzzy feelings they get from seeing their partner happily dating other people. It's not directly tied to sex – it's all about emotion. Cuckolding, on the other hand, is rooted in something closer to sexual humiliation. It relies on the idea that it is appalling for one man to 'take' another man's wife. The word comes, quite pleasingly, from the word 'cuckoo', because a cuckoo lays its eggs in another bird's nest, thus sneakily getting its chick raised by someone else.

Thoughts from couples and males please about the above theory from an article?

Your analogy is spot on in my opinion.

Most couples are really into, as opposed to the actual cuckoo aspect. The thought of pleasing should the main aspect for everyone in this type of situation.

The man watching the woman be pleased, the woman enjoying herself and pleasing their partner, and the cuckoo for pleasing them both by its performance.

So glad to hear a word that fits our dynamic! Will have to find a way to put compersion in our profile

If you sort of dive into the Buddhist teachings and down the mudita path, they will actually tell you that compersion is the hardest virtue to master.
