Cuckolding is one of the biggest sex trends of 2018.

The act involves men seeking pleasure at the thought of their partners bonking someone else.

Some choose to be in the room while this act takes place, while others prefer to watch video footage of the taboo romps.

Previously, sexpert Tracey Cox revealed why the kink can be a surprising ego-booster.

And now, men who are interested in the fetish have opened up about their desires.

In an interview with Cosmopolitan, three men spoke candidly about their love for cuckolding.

The first, who went by the pseudonym Ben, has been experimenting with the kink for 15 years.

The computer systems administrator admitted that he was the one who encouraged his wife to sleep with other men.

As well as seeking pleasure from watching his partner in action, it also gives him greater insight into her intimate preferences.

Ben said: “Being able to watch someone else have sex with my wife allows me to watch the best possible porn ever – I get to fully enjoy the sights and sounds of her pleasure, while also learning entirely new techniques or discovering activities that I never knew she enjoyed.

“We have grown so remarkably close, and have gotten to know each other more deeply than we ever could have otherwise.”

For another man, who goes by the name Oscar, opening up his sex life helped to alleviate tensions of a long relationship.

When he first started dating his fiancée seven years ago, they began to find sexting rather repetitive.

To spice things up, he urged his partner to recall previous intimate experiences that had turned her on.

This soon escalated to her hooking up with other men, all with the consent of her other half.

Oscar added that this route has prevented the pair from infidelity.

He said: “I’ve always found her love of sex and attention to be a major turn on.

“Cuckolding is great because there is no fear of cheating – she gets to do whatever she wants, as long as I get to be part of it too (even if that just means hearing about it)."

Finally, a man using the pseudonym Liam spoke about his relationship.

The energy consultant manager confessed that he has “been a voyeur all (his) life”.

In his 20s, he enjoyed participating in a threesome with his girlfriend.

After realising he was turned on by his feelings of envy, his interest branched out to cuckolding and swinging.

Liam said: “I found along the road that I enjoy a bit of jealousy.

“Sexual jealousy, for me, is like a roller coaster ride – fun, brief, perhaps a little scary, but in the end an experience I'm happy to have.”

While all three men gushed about how cuckolding has changed their sex lives for the better, they did note some drawbacks.

At times, it can be difficult to overcome the jealousy they feel when watching their wives seeking pleasure elsewhere.

They also admitted that it can be tricky to get outsiders to understand their relationship.

For this reason, they have to keep information about their sex lives private from their close friends.
