      That’s definitely what the song is about. Have you never heard the lyrics?

          4chan/Incel culture has co-opted “cuckolding” from a consensual kink to mean just plain old getting cheated on.

            Kink culture has co-opted it from plain old getting cheated on to a consensual kink.

          Cuckolding doesn’t imply consent. In fact it pretty specifically implies that the man doesn’t know it. The word has been in the English language for almost a thousand years, whereas the fetish is relatively new.

          Fun fact: giving someone “bunny ears” by putting two fingers behind their head used to be referred to as “the horns of the cuckold”, and it meant that you were saying that person’s wife had been unfaithful.
