Once More Into the Breach …

Cry havoc, and let slip the dogs of war!

Wait, this isn't a Shakespeare-quoting thread? Ah, shit, you guys are talking swinging vs. cuckolding—game over, man, game over. :) love y'all.

My next story for the Amorous Goods challenge next month will have a Shakespeare quote, so you're just ahead of your time. But I might post that story to Scifi/Fantasy, not LW. You'll have over a month to guess which play and which part I'd quote,
 
Guess, guess, my dear Watson, I mean Lifestyle, I never guess.

I'll take a stab. Since you mentioned SciFi, I thought of The Tempest. A few quotes that come to mind with potential Amorous Goods/Sci Fi/Loving Wives possibilities are "All The Devils Are Here" and "What's Past Is Prologue." "This Thing of Darkness." "This Rough Magic." That last one would be good for an Amorous Goods story.
 
Oh, it was a challenge. No, I'll not guess, then. With the choice of Loving Wives in there, the possibilities become rather endless since WS had a thing for cuckolded spouses.

The "All The Devils Are Here" was a good guess, but incorrect. But I'll quote Shakespeare (and give credit) for the scene which was appropriate for the story arc in the direction I'm taking that challenge.
 
Cry Havoc and Let Slip the Dogs of War is a quote that has already been used in Sci-fy. Star Trek, don't you know? ;) Not that it can't be used again. Might work in LW as well.

The only reason I'm considering LW for my next story is the husband coming upon his wife straddling the exhausted tentacle monster: "Looking down at the limp form on the ground, Ted smirked as he said, “I see you’ve met my wife.”"
 
The problem I've realized in writing these stories is that regardless of the effort I take to portray the character in a way to address such critics, the critics will always skip over the details and react with their preconceived notions.

For example, in this particular story, to address your criticism of she's not caring for her husband's fun and too consumed with her own, the husband explained in the prologue:
"And she knew how to make every time with me seem special, learning new techniques or finding the best sensitive spots on my body. Sometimes, she would just focus on sucking my cock, as if to say, 'This is all about YOUR pleasure tonight!'"

This is how they love each other, giving each other what they see the other needs at the time. In this story at the resort, the husband saw his wife's lust for a guy she thought was unapproachable (since his wife wasn't there), so he prodded her to go for it outside of their own usual rules together. And the wife told her husband to use her anyway he wanted afterwards, because she realized what he did with his texts to give her the experience she craved.

The commenter saying the husband treated her like a piece of meat ignored her treatment of men with her flirting ways and missed that part of both of them viewing sex as just a physical release, but always willing to take care of each other.

I think this is an interesting argument over people's reactions to it. What stood out to me was, if you look at the actual passage...

Standing over her, I grasped my own stiff shaft to stroke it a few times. "I'm not going out with THIS hard-on to show," I said looking down at her with a cocky grin. "What's it going to be? Your mouth, ass, or sloppy seconds?"

Jan smiled up at me. "I already gagged, but go for it," she said with a tired tone to her voice. "You know I won't turn you away. But I'm just going to lay here, and you can use me any way you want," and she closed her eyes, relaxing in contentment.

Kneeling between her upraised legs, I leaned in, and easily slid into her well lubed and stretched tunnel. She felt rather loose after Matt's larger member stretched her out. But the build-up and stroking myself watching their porn show was exciting enough. As I fucked my wife, I leaned in close to her ear, asking "Did you enjoy your lover's cock fucking you?"

"You're my only lover," Jan replied, as she looked into my eyes and wrapped her arms over my shoulders. Then she glanced over at Matt. "But you're a fantastic stunt cock," she cheerfully added.

Matt chuckled and countered with "I'll take that," accepting his role. "After all, I have my own lover waiting for me at home. But you can outsource to this stunt cock any time you want."

Continuing to thrust into my wife, the wet warm walls of her pussy were all I needed for just another minute before I suddenly stiffened, and I shot my own load to mix with the remains of Matt's in her.

Jan laid there as I pulled out and Matt now handed us both more tissue, before smiling down at us and saying, "I'll head out first and give you two some time."

...it's clearly an afterthought to the non-marital sex which takes up way more words and is obviously the meat (fanar-fanar) of the story. But what is also pretty clear is that practically every sentence mentions the previous sex in some way - from pre-stretched holes to mixing seamen. And for a wife-sharing story to stay within the wife-sharing fetish seems entirely appropriate writing.

I do agree though that this passage comes across as having both the emotional and physical pleasure aspects muted somewhat. I probably wouldn't have spotted it on a casual read, but, now it's been pointed out, I'd say it could have benefitted from there just being a little more there. You've told us earlier about how the relationship works but this bit doesn't clearly match that. I don't think you intended it to read as 'starfishing' and it's clear the husband is enjoying their activities together, but I also don't think 'starfishing' is a completely invalid read of this part.

I see what you mean.

The story came about when my wife and I were at a nude resort, and she cluelessly chatted with a guy there in that position, not realizing why he was laying in front of her. The story was to be about the husband encouraging his wife to fulfill her fantasy with the young guy.

But to try heading off the critics calling him a cuck and wimp, I added in the parts about their loving relationship, her riding him that night in the RV, and then decided he needed his own relief after watching them fucking in the restroom.
Any guy watching that happen in front of him would either get angry or hard, and as said, sporting a hard-on at a nude resort isn't welcome. So, that was a quick add-on to the story.

But as far as the 'starfishing' critique, it didn't occur to me that some would find that offensive, because my wife often says that to me after she's had her own 'over the top' orgasm. "I'm done and I'm just going to lie here. You can keep going, but don't expect me to help."
Sometimes, if she's not horny enough to fuck in the evening, when we go to bed, she'll say "You can poke me in the morning with your woodie. But I might not wake up."

My response to the critics saying the husband treats his wife like a piece of meat is to look at how that wife, "Jan" treats men.
