What’s a modern upgrade to the hotwife anklet? Another way to signal discreetly that her wedding ring can be ignored?

I was wondering about the advent of smart “google glasses” that constantly scan the faces of everyone you’re looking at and give you a “heads up” display of info on each person: their name, where you’ve met them before, their linkedin profile, etc… awesome for those of us who are bad at remembering names (and faces). But, what if there’s also a hotwife “registry” that the app could ping and, if that’s something you’d like to know, would give you a little flashing light or targret sign over them? Or use Augmented Reality to add a glowing anklet to the woman in your view. That would make all those “husband gives wife an anklet as a present, but doesn’t explain what it indicates” stories easier. Now the man just tags her with the “Not a hotwife yet, but, husband invites you to take a shot” tag. Maybe he even adds a few “tips” on her likes & dislikes that you can lookup quickly as you approach her at the bar.

Alternatively, maybe some infrared physical marker that can only be seen with special glasses?

Or an “Find My Hotwife” app that can be installed on her phone that tracks her location so wannabe bulls can track their prey in real time? And she could check to see if there’s anyone at the bar who considers themselves a bull.
 
It's rather dystopian, but perhaps a barcode of some sort? You're in a club and see a beautiful woman and she sees you. Smiles are exchanged and she moves the strap of her dress and reveals a bar code on her shoulder, making aluring eye contact. Boldly you walk up and swipe it with your phone or IR glasses, and your phone goes to her profile. There it lists exactly what she's looking for, and if your interested, it will forward her your profile for her perusal.

It could take some of the awkwardness out of the first meeting.

She just walks up to you now, and offers her hand to shake. "Hello, Mark. It's a pleasure to meet you."
 
…or… what if your wife's phone ID was set to “hotwife” and had “hotspot” sharing turned on, so anyone who was sitting on a plane or in a bar, etc… looking for a wifi signal, would see “hotwife” listed under hotspots and immediately start looking around trying to figure out who it is...

I don't really consider myself a hotwife but when Joe and I play with others, it is my job to pick the guy up. I don't need some anklet.

It sounds like you’re comfortable being the “hunter”. That’s awesome… and probably easier since most men would be happy to be your prey.

Men face a tougher challenge… the odds are low that that hot woman at the end of the bar is approachable… so, how, other than an anklet, can she subtly signal that she is?

I’m trying to “help” those poor, deprived husbands whose wives are too shy to be “hunters", and instead signal to men hunters that, despite appearances and the odds, she is potential prey.
 
That's funny. Joe (my husband and my boyfriend - the one I 'hunt' with) calls me his 'huntress' so you captured it perfectly. Joe picks the guy. I pick him up.

I would suggest for other women, an engagement ring on the right hand to offset the wedding set on the left. That would signify an open fidelity.

Oh, I’ll be on the look out.
 
If someone I picked up recognized me from lit, it would only mean Joe and I won't bother to use fake first names.
 
I think the augmented reality angle is the strongest modern upgrade to the hotwife anklet idea, not because of the kink but because it intersects with where society already seems headed: wearable tech, constant social scanning, curated identities, and selective visibility.

The glowing AR anklet idea is particularly elegant because it preserves the symbolism of the old trope while updating it for a world of smart glasses and metadata overlays. Instead of a literal anklet, someone wearing compatible glasses might see a subtle gold shimmer around the ankle, a tiny glyph near the wedding ring, or some other discreet visual marker layered into augmented reality.

What makes the concept interesting to me is not “available woman locator technology,” but the social and psychological implications: opt-in signaling, negotiated openness, couples curating shared boundaries, hidden versus public identities, husbands and wives setting visibility levels differently, mistaken interpretations, hacked/spoofed profiles, people seeing signals they were never meant to see.


That’s where the story potential really could get lively.

The strongest version probably frames the system like a consensual social ecosystem. Think less “hunter app” and more “LinkedIn meets masked Venetian ball.” Maybe profiles have nuanced statuses: conversation welcome, flirting welcome, husband-aware, soft swap/open, adventurous but discreet, etc.


The story practically writes itself. A wife initially thinks the system is playful and empowering, only to slowly realize her husband may have tagged her more aggressively than she intended, or that strangers know details she never knowingly shared. Suddenly the technology becomes about surveillance, control, erotic visibility, and who really owns a public sexual identity in a hyper-connected world.

To me it feels contemporary and believable.

PLEASE keep posts to a moderate length. Take longer discussions to private please.
Huge long posts like this, though not technically an outline or story, stifle further conversation in the thread.
Remember that the goal here is to develop a variety of variations on the idea, and encourage writing to move from idea to story, but not to actually develop the story in the thread.

just what is the "hotwife anklet" for those of us unfamiliar with the term/concept?
 
I guess that's what happens when you've been divorced for 20 years, you lose track...
or maybe I just need to read more LW stories.

Mind you, I've never cared for the label "hot wife". I much prefer the term "loving wife". To me, "hot wife" is a misnomer (shouldn't all wives be hot, whther they are shared or not) and "loving wife' capyures the ongoing loving husband/wife relationship better. It is the latter that I look for in stories and aimed for in my writing, when I wrote LW stories (it boggles my mind that it is FIVE YEARS since I last posted an LW tale, and that was after a ten year hiatus. I started out writing LW stories, and in total wrote about 20. I'm getting old...

To each his own, but I've never heard "loving wife" used with any extramarital connotations except in the name of Lit's own category, and even then the summary is needed to clarify it. IMO it's not distinct enough from the plain English meaning of the two words separately. Shouldn't all wives also be loving? Whereas "hotwife" is a distinct term for this lifestyle.
