When did CUCK become the new go-to word for everything?

[Calculating]

It's starting to drive me nuts lately.
"Omg man, that sports player is playing like such a fucking cuck"
"dude, you gotta stand up for yourself and not be a total cuck"
"Lul get cucked boy"
"Those europeans are all a bunch of total cucks"
"I fucking hate people who drive like fucking cucks. Some people need to man the fuck up"

It's become the new go-to word for anybody perceived as passive/beta or for anybody losing a contest/game/sports/whatever.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

1. Just another pejorative like wimp. It will fade away.

But the latter is not obscene.

[Drahthaardogs]

33. Actually it's a very old perjorative in most of the world.

"Giving him the horns" in any country with a Latin language is like flipping someone off here.

[Achilleaze]

46. republicans really identify with it, and so project it on to others

that's their thing - pretend others are somehow involved in the very things they are doing.

Basically, Comrade Casino* - is "cucking" the whole freaking lameass republican party. So to try and weasel out of facing their own horrid shameful reality, republicans are projecting it all over the place on to others.

deplorable cucks.

* the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, Spousal Cheater & Vow Breaker

[Drahthaardogs]

47. I don't think you understand how the word is used.

A woman cuckolds a man. It's a slur against his weakness sexually to satisfy her. E.g. Trump is a cuck, Baron is probably a Kennedy...THAT is how the word would be used.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

2. When alt-right douchebros made up words to make themselves sound cool.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

3. They aren't smart enough to make it up. It comes from cuckold.

[JHB]

6. They are, however, the ones who sprayed it around...

...like liquid fertilizer.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

8. It's become a porn them.

A white guy who gets sexual gratification from watching his wife/gf have sex with black guys.

[bettyellen]

19. It's always meant the guy who's "woman" was stolen - a patriarchal metaphor that DT plays into

If you notice in the scandals over his harassment of women, most were married- some partnered to people he was "doing deals" with - he enjoys getting over on other men (making them a cuck ) more than he does the sex itself. It's no fun for him unless someone is being subjugated.

[Drahthaardogs]

34. No it doesn't. She was not " stolen"

Last edited Sun May 28, 2017, 06:53 PM - Edit history (1)

She left because her man was unable to satisfy her thus she had to go elsewhere.

Like I be said above, in Italy, Spain, etc. It is a well known insult. I grew up in the culture and spent my summer there.

And on edit

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckold

It says exactly what I said it does. It has absolutely nothing to do with "stealing" a woman. It's a dude whose wife cheats on him because he can't satisfy her. Why do people want to turn shit into sociology class?

[bettyellen]

35. It's a we'll known insult based on a man who's allowed his women to "be taken" and is steeped in the

Patriarchal assumption that you can actually possess a woman. It's used for both men who allow it and those who were screwed over. It's we'll known in America among those who are well read. I know it's more of a thing in Italy becasue it's pretty much the most patriarchal country on earth, lol. Been there and done that.

[Drahthaardogs]

38. It means you are not enough of a man to satisfy your woman

So she goes elsewhere. It is not some great Patriarchal belief etc. It's pretty simple and very crude. I spent every summer in Torino. I know what the word means.

[bettyellen]

41. "You're not man enough to_____" is sexist crap. Been to Italy too and it's not the only place it's

used, much to your surprise. It's an English word that goes back before Shakespeare for christs sake.

Your friends in Torino sound just peachy.

[Drahthaardogs]

42. You want to make the word a slur against women

And somehow introduce misogyny into it. I am sorry you don't know what the word means or how it is used. Read the Wiki, it says exactly what I said it means and has absolutely NOTHING to do with women as property and stealing them. It is a common insult in France, Spain, Italy, and Germany and is considered on as vulgar to men as the C word is to women.

How you came up with your definition that this somehow is tied to women as property is beyond me. It's an insult to men, and yes, I have seen it used in country. I know what it means.

[bettyellen]

50. Never said that it was a slur on women, LOL. I guess you misunderstood what the word sexist means

I'm sorry but trying to explain it by saying Italians used it isn't really helping your argument. It seems to all be flying over your head. Never mind, LOL.

[Drahthaardogs]

51. I said all of the Latin countries use it.

Lol = attempt to patronize because you have no idea what the word means and tried to make it mysoginistic.

Sexist means prejudice based upon sex, usually in the context against women. It fucking doesn't mean that. It's a slur saying you are a weak man who cannot sexually gratify your wife or girlfriend. I suppose that could be a sexist, as one could argue the stereotype is that a man should be virile enough to satisfy his partner.



Did you even read the wiki page? Because if you did, you would realize the Italians and I know what the word means. You don't, but come here and tell me I am wrong as are those macho italiani. You are wrong. Read the Wiki and learn something.

[bettyellen]

53. Oh lord you really don't get sexism either, LOL. Cuckold has English origins, genius.

Yeah Latin people tend to obsess over the concept as much as Trump does. You'd think that would actually tel you something, but I guess not.

[Drahthaardogs]

61. You are hopeless. Did you read the Wiki?

Did you? The fucking word is described EXACTLY as I did, references to Europe and all.

Why. Won't. You. Read. The. Article?

I know why. It proves you wrong and you would rather talk shit than be corrected.

Nothing more to see here

[Beartracks]

56. "Misogynist" might describe a guy who enjoys MAKING another man a cuckold...

... by seducing that man's wife -- or, in the misogynist's mind "stealing" her.

Would definitely feed the misogynist's ego to cuckold his business partners that way.



==========

[Drahthaardogs]

62. A cuckold is a cuckold because of his own weakness.

Not because of awesome seductive powers of someone else. That is how the slur is used and inferred when used as a pejorative.

It is the cuckolds ineptitude that causes his partner to stray. That is why it is such an insult.

[Warpy]

9. Yeah, the MRA/PUA bros came up with it.

For them, it means a man who is so weak he can't control a woman.

And that shows exactly where their heads are.

[Drahthaardogs]

44. No it doesn't

Fuck. How you guys make this shit into feminist agenda is beyond me. It means you are too weak a man to sexually gratify your woman so she gets sexual pleasure from other men. It is meant to degrade a man on his sexual prowess.

The symbol is the horned hand or corno with fingers up and rotate it. Go to Europe and you will see it just like the bird is flipped here.

[Bradical79]

59. Europe is irrelevant here, it's from MRA groups in this case.

In the current American sense, the meaning stated above is how these idiots used it in the MRA hate groups online, and how it's become a more popular insult since Trump came into office. There's a lot of crossover between these groups when it comes to younger male Trump supporters.

[Drahthaardogs]

60. It's NOT from MRA and Europe is NOT irrelevant

MRA may have picked it up but the horns of the cuckold are an ancient slur just like touching your testicles or using the various signs to ward off the evil eye are ancient gestures.

If MRA picked it up feel free to tell the stupid asses they aren't using the word correctly. Don't validate them by accepting their definition. It had NOTHING to do with feminist, men's rights, or any other such position. It is a nasty slur used against a man calling his sexual ability into o question.

[Madam Mossfern]

63. The way I see it

It means that a man isn't "man" enough to keep his wife.
The term is an old one, from times when wives were kind of considered property.

[luvMIdog]

4. because they're all into bdsm and like that terminology

a few years back some guy at work told me that if someone goes to those bdsm sites and checks them out most of the profiles say they are Christian next to religion and he says most of them are republican. hahahaha I don't know if that's true, but they sure seem to like the terminology

[DemocratSinceBirth]

5. On other boards we use to post photos of interracial couples to annoy them.

[luvMIdog]

7. lol I don't think they mind interracial sex as long as they don't have to acknowledge it ;)

hey many of these racist come from men who were raping their slaves for a century

[wyldwolf]

11. It's a misunderstanding of the term's meaning, isn't it?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the 'bottom' in BDSM really actually the 'top?'

[luvMIdog]

16. I dunno I've not had much interest in that stuff & I was told I was vanilla & I had to look that up

[mythology]

18. In the sense that the bottom has to consent to everything done and can withdraw that consent

but that applies both ways. It is sometimes said that the sub has all the power because it's often presumed the top will want to go further than the sub, but that's not always the case.

[bettyellen]

22. "Topping from the bottom" becasue wanna be doms are so damned common

They have to really work - or pay somehow- to find a good sub.

[lisby]

28. Yes. NT

[anneboleyn]

30. Well, no. The top is the dom/domme. Bottoms are not supposed to "top," but bottoms do set the basic

boundaries of the situation. But the top makes the decisions in a scene, and the bottom is supposed to follow directions (as long as the safeword is respected). The dom/domme must respect the bottom's safeword, and the dom/domme is supposed to establish absolute "don'ts" with the bottom before they engage in a scene. The dom or domme of course is supposed to guide the scene and take control of the bottom and make sexual and non-sexual demands of the bottom (these demands can obviously be made in a thousand different ways) but never to violate the strict boundaries that have already been established.

In the Bdsm world those rules are sacred, and a dom or domme who violates these rules OR a bottom who refuses to respect his/her top (it's called "topping from the bottom&quot are definitely frowned upon.

[bettyellen]

37. "Topping from the bottom" is what happens outside the scene. Becasue wanna be Doms are ...

A dime a dozen.

[obamanut2012]

39. No, never

[wyldwolf]

40. Well, I see DU's BDSM experts aren't in total agreement

Surprise!

[Hassin Bin Sober]

13. Repubs like their cuckold fantasies

http://gawker.com/report-republicans-get-hard-for-cucks-1783684946
Yet despite their distaste for the cuck cowards of the world, for some reason, it really gets Republicans off. According to xHamster, “Of all the [red] states, the most viewed categories were “Cuckold” and “Mature.”

[Adrahil]

10. Trump

Everything is about the sexual possession of women.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

12. Because conservatives lack the imagination to come up with a better insult

They hear their bros use the words cuck and snowflake and follow suit.

[wyldwolf]

14. Welp! I'm off to watch Bella and the Bulldogs

[PufPuf23]

15. It is a nasty, vile, and hateful term that reflects more

on the individual that uses it than any meaning.

[.99center]

17. I'm in the middle of Trump land and have never heard anyone say the word .

Maybe it's time to stay away from websites that are infested with right wing teenagers.

[luvMIdog]

23. that's because they'd have to say it to a FACE. Bannon said it publicly not long ago & so did many

others

[.99center]

32. No problem calling people every other name in the book, but cuck is too far?

I doubt it. It's used by kids and teenagers as flame bait to try to piss liberals off. A new member seems to start a new topic about the word cuck everyday, why are new DUers so obsessed with what Democrats think of the word cuck?

[titaniumsalute]

20. Quit being a snowflake...LOL

[Dem2]

21. The fact that we're discussing it

Means it's old hat and will fade from usage soon enough.

[luvMIdog]

24. I don't think so. Look how long they held onto the term 'libtards' though it made them look stupid

[Dem2]

25. I make them feel impotent/sniveling

Cuck is a fairly easy term to turn against them. I almost relish when they use this dumb "word" now.

[luvMIdog]

26. lol they project a lot , don't they?

[Dem2]

27. It makes me giggle

Calling someone a "cuck" is like wearing a gigantic "I'm a beta, kick me" sign on one's back.

[LOL Lib]

29. I think it is stupid, BUT!!!!

I saw on twitter that people are calling little donnie a cuck now for his curtsy. I had to laugh out loud when I saw it.
#DonaldCuck

I like it because it rhymes with Donald Duck and his hair reminds me of a ducks bill.

[oberliner]

31. Never heard a single person use the word

Is this something you have encountered in real life?

[tavernier]

52. ...

Me nither.

36. The Surprising Etymology of the Alt-Right's Favorite Word, "Cuck" - interesting article

The Surprising Etymology of the Alt-Right's Favorite Word, "Cuck"
By Adam Clair | November 8, 2016

https://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2016/11/the-surprising-etymology-of-the-alt-rights-favorit.html

[billh58]

55. This excerpt from the article

describing the alt-right's use of "cuck" sums up Trump's and the right-wing's "white male power" attitude toward women and race:

"The implications that a wife is her husband’s property and that her cheating with a black man is more humiliating than it would be with someone of another race..."

[ck4829]

43. When "Politically Correct" and "Cultural Marxist" got too many syllables for today's rightie

[panader0]

45. I hope it fades away soon, along with "nothing burger".

[billh58]

48. The Many Synonyms of cuckold

One of the more glaring inequities of the English language is that it has a significantly larger number of words for “a man whose wife is unfaithful” than it does for “a woman whose man is unfaithful.” Cuckold is perhaps the best known of these words, and it has many synonyms, including (but by no means restricted to) cornute, cornuto, hoddy-doddy, hoddypoll, horn, ram, and wittol (a man who is aware of his wife’s infidelity and acquiesces to it). What of a woman whose husband is unfaithful? For that our language appears to have but a single word, and an obscure one at that: cuckquean.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cuckold

The implication is that it is far more of a travesty if the wife is unfaithful, than the man. But then again, in a male dominated world where women are considered chattel, nothing less is expected is it?

[ProfessorGAC]

57. For those of us paying attention to the excretable MRA's

It's been a while.

[Solly Mack]

58. I don't use the so-called word.

[Efilroft Sul]

64. Well, you see, repeatedly using an insult with two or three syllables wears out their lips.

Same thing happens when they read out loud.

[DefenseLawyer]

65. Alt Right bloggers watch a lot of porn. n/t

[Oneironaut]

66. It's the annoying internet word du jour. It's almost exclusively used by the alt-right.

It's especially used by the anti-social serial killers / Nazis on /pol/ (don't go there if you want to remain sane. Ever...). It has since bled into use by Conservative, middle-aged men who think that it makes them sound young and cool.

We can all agree that Conservatism in the age of Trump is a cringey embarrassment.
