"Therefore, by seeking out to play NTR games over non NTR games, or even having an affinity to NTR games, the player must be into the cuck fetish. And well, that means you take sexual pleasure from having your love interest railed by another man."

That's you. First post.

I don't have a cuckold or NTR fetish. The exactly opposite, actually. And yet I enjoy NTR/cuckold games when they're done well. Your choices are now to assert that I'm lying or that I'm lying, since you won't just accept that I reject your premise.

I still don't think you were ever interested in an actual dialogue, and so I'm out. Have a nice thread.
You are conflating two points.

You are claiming that I am saying that NTR cannot be a subset of the games that you enjoy, but I have not said that. As i have said before, just because you enjoy an NTR game, does not mean you are a fan (affinity, seeking out to play) of NTR games. The quote you quoted was in particular to people seeking out NTR.

I referred you multiple times to the BBC example, which should clear your confusion, but you have conveniently ignored it, which is quite telling. You are trying to catch me out on words (failing to do so) and not interested in a good faith discussion, evidenced by ignoring what I say about the BBC example.

Let me know if I need to explain further.

Decent take and I agree with most of it though I think NTR and cuckoldry have a lot of nuances to it.

(Disclosure - I'm not into NTR nor am I an overt fan of sharing/swinging but I get the appeal to it.)

I think part of playing games depends on your POV you take in playing a game. What I mean about that is if you're coming at it from an invested first person POV you care more about the characters actions since its from a personal viewpoint. Actions and choices you take form a personal relevance and can be more impacting to you since you immerse yourself into the character. From there it's up to your own personal preferences. Do you have a cuck fetish? Do you enjoy the pain and suffering? Does it have to be about the pain? Maybe you are more of the voyeur type and that excites you? Maybe you don't connect with an LI in a game so their actions don't affect you personally? Some of it deals with masochism and sadism tendencies (doesn't have to but for some it does). If you're into personal degradation or humiliation by someone, a game that does that to a MC might be a reason you're attracted to it - hence why a game labeled NTR and has those things in them would be appealing. There's a whole host of reasons or situations or rationales that justify why someone can be "into" that type of game.

Coming at it from the third person perspective you can shelter yourself a bit from the personal feelings or actions of a MC. Maybe you feel more akin to another character in the game and don't identify with the MC (I know people of mixed races and friends who are black who do this with games involving a black character or anybody of color in the game that has a white or Asian protag - for them they have no connection to the white male MC and identify with others). Putting race aside - maybe you're someone of a vastly different age than the MC and that's a reason for your disassociation (there can be a whole host of reasons for the disassociation). You also can live out a little of your sadistic preferences seeing the suffering or anguish of a main character if that's your thing. That feeling of indifference of "welp, this guy's not me so I don't care what happens to them... I'm just here for the sexy action between characters" is a way some can justify it. I think disassociation and not projecting yourself onto a character plays a big role in it for those who play the games with NTR from this 3rd person POV who can also state that on a personal level they aren't into the idea of cuckoldry or being cucked.

That disassociation from a MC's actions because you don't personally feel you're the one involved in the act, but rather another person entirely that you're just watching and/or influencing, speaks more to how you as a player want to immerse yourself in a game. (There's been tons of research on 1st person POV/3rd person POV in game immersion studies -- here's but one: ). A lot of male players who play female protag games can take this stance to a degree - the idea where "I'm just following around this person and influencing their actions based on my choices but at the end of the day it's not me personally but someone else entirely".

But again there's always nuances to it - you definitely can take a 3rd person POV and be into cuckoldry all the same (wherein you personally enjoy being cucked). I personally don't seek enjoyment in pain, humilation, cuckoldry, denigration of someone, etc (they can all be the same thing while also being completely different too) but I'm not going to judge someone or make some definitive statement on what's the best way to "get off" haha. People all have preferences, desires, and fetishes - I know what I like and what makes me happy. If something I don't like makes others happy, meh who am I to judge?
Thanks for the thought out post. I think it is entirely legitimate to enjoy NTR games for the sexual content. I am careful to specify that I refer to people who see NTR tag as the draw to a game. If a player were into 3rd person cuck, that's under the 'cheating' tag, which is different from the NTR tag. The NTR tag, as we know, signifies that it is the player character who is cucked.

A player who takes a 3rd person view of cucking may find pleasure in both NTR and cheating games, not NTR games exclusively.

Could t agree more with the original poster.

1)The dont immerse arguement

Why the hell read a story, watch a movie, or play a game when you dont get yourself Into the leading characters shoes? Isnt that what makes a story, movie etc great?
We are talking about Games, that are moving forward based on your decisions. Games can be idiotic (stashing up bricks Is idiotic for ex) but why the hell play a game when doomed to lose?

2) I play ntr Games for the story and the characters

Scratching my balls Hard. The Day a cuckold game appears where the story isnt naive and the protagonists arent idiots that will be an arguement.

3) ntr fans arent openly or lowkey Into cuckold fetish cause if so incest fans want to fuck their moms in rl.

Incest Is tabboo meaning FORBIDEN. I met a girl in a ski trip few years ago. The sexual attraction was of the charts. Turned out she was my first cousin. We would have Fucked our brains out if the social restrictions didnt forbid it.

Male human insticts Is to fuck a beatiful female. Social, economic, and character limitations restrict us from fucking everything that moves around.

People play porn Games to overcome those restrictions. It gives you the power to fuck someone without the fear of rejection, grope someone without getting punched in the face, rape someone without going to jail.

Its all about power As mentioned. If that power Is given to you and through your decisions you want to see you wife getting Fucked by a banch of Bbcs, want to eat anothers dude cum of your girls Pussy or to be humiliated hell yeah you are Into the cuckold fetish

I think there is a psychological underpinning to the NTR fetish that is not easily explained in the same way you can explain a rape or incest fetish. In the latter fetishes, its about giving power to the player and that is conceivable. People talk about escapism and things like that in video games all the time. But NTR fetish is the fantasy of being the weak, powerless cuck. It is an escapism in a way also because the player doesn't have to deal with the repercussions of being a weakling in real life, but why would they want to play it out in this game world?

There are certain things that are beyond human understanding.

Those that are beyong the limitations of our brain and those which oppose our nature.

Common human Male nature Is fuck a woman not see her getting Fucked by an antagonist while being humiliated.

Its the cause for all ntr cuckold Games dont make much sense for the average Male player. There isnt real plausible story in the tyrant or in the adventurous couple. And characters behavior doesnt make any sense unless you indeed have a (lowkey) cuckold fetish. Rest of us who dont just understand all these Games As naive and idiotic plotwise and character wise.

I get back home and I see an old fart balls deep inside my wife. Dont beat the shit out of him. Just sit watch and fap. Even make him Some break fast!!!

I respect people's fetishes. But i Cant take someones opinion As a Serious one when claiming that i play babysitter for ex ntr root for the story or the characters, when Everyone Is acting like an idiot in that root.

If you view the events of the VN/game as a fly on the wall it shouldn't matter which character is getting NTR’d as long as the build up, the act and the emotional turmoil is visible. If you are adamant that it must be the player character who gets NTR’d, then you either want to self insert or at the very least share the feelings of a person who is getting NTR’d.

Wish we could all just agree to disagree and move along. I understand that some players really immerse themselves into the game/vn then suddenly, they'll be greeted with "oooh... Honey, I'm sorry I can't help it he's so bi-i-i-i-ig!!! Yeah enjoy the show cracka umf! umf! umf!" And SNAP! Kicked outta dream land. But these players don't need to be "daaaamn!!! Damn the dev!!!" and ruin it for the rest.

Just accept the fact that ntr ain't for everyone.

I acknowledged them, but you did not see my point and I don't want to rewrite.
I started my first answer by quoting your point...
But you're surely right, it's me who don't understand, and not you that are a pickax head.


Edit: you should only provide reasons instrinsic to ntr.
How can you judge if the reasons are intrinsic to NTR or not, since each one of your answer on this thread, is a proof that don't know what NTR really is ?


it feel like we stand on trials for playing NTR games and no matter what we say we are already judged by him. bye.
The funny part is that I generally don't play NTR games, because I'm far to be a NTR fan. I'm just curious, and when the game is well wrote, whatever it's content, I play it to have a better understanding of fetishes that are outside of my liking zone.
Yet you're absolutely right. As long as we don't start our answer by "NTR is the devil", he don't really care to read, just to judge.

Because those aspects are contained in Non-NTR games too, and NTR games aren't contingent on them.

Yeah I get you but you're making definitive statements here and being an arbiter of what something can and cannot mean.

I'll give you an example - A game that has a white male MC fucks a girl that is black. While they're having sex they have anal sex. Lets say I'm someone who is heavily into anal sex. You decide to define my preferences as a person who enjoys interracial sex. I could care less what color the male MC is, nor what color the female person is - I just enjoy anal sex. Interracial sex is irrelevant to me at this point, I'm there for the simple reason of anal sex. We can both be watching something and come to completely different reasons why I might or might not have a preference for that thing or enjoy it. You can also label me or define me differently than how I would define myself in that scenario.

Same thing could be said about NTR to a degree. Hypothetically, I could enjoy it because it speaks to my sadistic tendencies in that I enjoy seeing a person suffer or go through a personal humiliation. The inverse could be true - the personal humiliation could be a masochistic fantasy for me if the cucking or abuse is done to the MC. The humiliation can also be totally irrelevant for me as a person. I could be more into it as a voyeur. Or I could care less about the LI because I have completely loss any care or concern for their actions and at this point whatever they do is irrelevant to me. I'm in it because seeing a LI who I used to have interest in or hold in high regard now is debasing themselves and becoming a person overwhelmed with lust and debauchery. That could excite me because I get to see a person fall privy to their own basic carnal and lowly desires. Seeing someone stripped of their basic human decency and becoming subservient to their primal lusts and needs could be a draw for me. Or I could be into it because I enjoy the cuck aspect of it. Again we all could be watching the same thing but come to different reasons on why we might individually like it (which is more against the point you made where if you watch NTR, you have to enjoy it for the one reason you defined it as).

I guess my point is sure - NTR is the word or tag someone can see on a game but it could mean vastly different things to people. Simply defining it as "you have to be this one thing because it's black and white and that's the reason you like something because there is no nuance here" is more of a personal opinion to be honest. There are black and white issues out there, don't get me wrong, but I do think there's a lot of issues where they are various shades of grey. People can make their own judgments and definitions on why they like something. If you don't agree with why a person likes something because it's different than what you think something is, well now we're just talking about a difference of opinions.

How can incest be seen as being about power ?
It's only in cheap incest stories that the MC force it on the others. But in this case, incest isn't the fetish of the game, but its background ; it's a corruption/hypno/whatever story taking place inside a family.
The incest fetish is about giving in to your uncontrollable and unconditional love ; possibly uncontrollable lust, but like it need to be a mutual feeling, it's more a side effect of the love than anything else. A story where you care more about the love you feel, than about anything else, including moral and the judgmental comments of others since it's incest, but it's far to be limited to this. It's yourself and your own life that you put in the background by placing the love you feel in the first place.
When you give in to your love in an incest story, it's not the other that you put in an uncomfortable place, it's yourself. You worry about what people will think of your lover, while not caring a single second what they'll think about you. You protect your lover while exposing yourself.
Where's the notion of power in this ?

Note that it's also a perfect example to show you how deeply you're wrong on your view over NTR players. Especially when you say that, since they are true NTR lovers, they want to be cucked in real life.
Do you really thing that true incest lovers want to bang all their family ? What would it say about you, the author of an incest game, if it was true ?
In fact it tend to be the opposite. Lovers of the incest fetish care and love their family so much that they wouldn't cross the line even if they had the possibility to do it, by fear that it will change this feeling, alter it in the wrong way.


The same error is made about rape fetish, that you always describe as a question of power, which isn't the case ; rape fetish isn't about power, but about control, which is different.
And anyway, what "rape fetish" are you talking about here ? It's a two sided fetish, there's those (equally male and female) who feel it as the rapist, and those (once again equally male and female) who feel it as the victim. For the later, rape is another way to loose control over the situation. There's those who love to loose it by doing submissively everything told to them (submissive fetish). Those who love to have it taken by force (rape victim fetish). Those who love to have it enforced on them (masochist). And so on.

In all cases, the "giver" is in position of control, which give him power over the situation, but a limited one. Limited because in all cases, the situation is the result of a consensual decision. One voluntarily gave to the other the power to control him, but under his own conditions.
Why do you think that the BDSM scene have the notion of safe word ? It's because the "giver" is never the one that effectively control the situation, just the one that decide. At anytime the "receiver" can stop everything, just by saying a word.
There's no power in all those fetishes, just control. If it was a question of power, then it wouldn't be a fetish, but a twisted mind, at best, or a mental sickness, at worse.


People talk about escapism and things like that in video games all the time. But NTR fetish is the fantasy of being the weak, powerless cuck.
And so ? There's many people of power, feared by everyone, that are also masochist or fully submissive once in the bedroom. It can come from a feeling of guilt, but mostly it's just how they like sexual encounters, and nothing more.
The fact that, during sex, what they want is to loose all control over the situation doesn't mean that it's how they are in all other situations. And there's absolutely nothing incoherent in the fact to be in control of everything all day long, then loose all control once it's question of sex.


Because those aspects are contained in Non-NTR games too, and NTR games aren't contingent on them.
It's not even reducing the subject to its minimal part, it's also denying everything about the reality of fetishism. You can't find a single fetish that have a single thing intrinsic to it, once you passed the name of the fetish itself.

Urology is about humiliation, which is far to be intrinsic to this fetish, therefore the only intrinsic part is piss.
Submission is about loosing control, which is far to be intrinsic to this fetish, therefore the only intrinsic part is submission.
Incest is about unconditional love, which is far to be intrinsic to this fetish, therefore the only intrinsic part is banging relatives.
It's even worse for SM, since even the name of the fetish isn't intrinsic to it. By example, the cheating fetish have a sadistic variation, while NTR have a voluntary suffering (and so masochist) variation.
And so on. Every single fetish is just a particular way to express/acquire/feel something that can be expressed/acquired/felt in other ways. And it's this way that trigger the desire, not what is expressed/acquired/felt.

But here the loop is complete and the discussion go around in circles. The only intrinsic part of NTR is being a weak cuck. That's what people who have the NTR fetish in real life want. What mater for them isn't to be humiliated or whatever else you want. No, what mater for them is to feel the humiliation (or whatever you want) of being a weak cuck.
But you explicitly refuse this as a valid reason, asking again and again for more intrinsic reasons that do not exist. Which just demonstrate that it's not just the NTR fetish that you misunderstood, but also what is a fetish.
You want to force rationality where there isn't a single once of it, in fetishes. But the fact is that fetishes are the exact opposite of phobias, and therefore stand outside of all rationality.

In top of that, you refuse to acknowledge that there's a different between liking a fetish, and having a fetish. The first one is about the liking of a genre of story, while the second one is about living a particular situation. And despite everything you say they are two totally different things.
Which fall back to what I said above. Since you're the author of an incest game, should we assume that you're banging your mother ?
Obviously, it's not what we do, we assume that you like this fetish, not have it. Like in fact you do yourself for every one writing an incest game, because you know for sure that they aren't necessarily incestuous in real life.

You apply to NTR reasoning that you don't apply to other fetishes, showing clearly that you aren't here to have your mind changed, but just to express your own disgust over NTR lovers.
Therefore, like baka said, you're just here to judge, not to understand.

NTR can also be implemented as a "Bad ending" mechanic but some people may end up enjoying it instead.
Similarly to School Days endings, the so called "bad endings" are my favorite because I like Yandere.

Think NTR is too big of a term people tend to try to categorize as one thing.
There can be several factors why someone enjoy NTR.

1. Past experience can form what fetishes you enjoy. For example, If you are an introvert and had a crush on a girl but then due to your nature never had the courage to go for it. Then an 'alpha' male appear and take her away and you get 'traumatized' (big words but couldn't think of another word)
Another example could be simply catching your wife/girlfriend in the act with another.
There are 100's other examples but main point is- for some these make it so they detest fetishes involving anything like that but for others, the past experience has made it so those fetishes are actually what they enjoy and seek. Human mind works in very funny ways.
Of course, not neccesarily need any past experrience to enjoy those fetishes but more often than not it is the case.

2. You do not see yourself as the main protoganist (not the same as not being immersed). I tend to be one who have extreme difficulties 'being' the main mc. I am easily immersed in the world and story but don't think I've ever felt like the mc. That's why I hate silent mc (in adult and nonadult games) and have made my own mc someone with a background and voice.

For people like that, NTR could actually be a 'gateway' fetish that accesses some of their own fetishes. Blackmail is usually something associated with ntr.
Corruption is another big one. Seing the innocent girl fall into lust is a very big turn on for many people. Moreso when the girl is liked by the mc or is dating him. It only amplifies the corruption and lust.
So many times they do not feel the downside of the ntr (as they do not get the jealous or cuck feel) rather it is added to increase the pleasure of the fetishes they already have.
(Also why these people don't usually care about if it's netori or ntr)

3. Simply like being cucked. It's a fetish.

There are lots of more reasons no doubt, but the thing is- NTR can't be grouped into one thing imo.
I never cared about it. Not something that will be in my game, but it is not out of disgust or hate (as I have none of that for the fetish) but rather, it is not my own fetish.
If it was, I wouldn't give a flying *bleep* about anything and would add it in a heartbeat.

it's not very complicated. NTR, at its core, is about corruption and moral degeneration. People who can't help but self insert won't understand. I postulate that NTR fans who actively imagine themselves being cucked and getting off on it are in the minority. Not that there is anything wrong with that either.

Fetishes in porn don't have to reflect on someone's real life character at all. The thread just rubs me the wrong way in how it tries to portray NTR as some lower form of fetish. "Incest is about control and power!" "NTR is for beta cucklords." zzz

And so on. Every single fetish is just a particular way to express/acquire/feel something that can be expressed/acquired/felt in other ways. And it's this way that trigger the desire, not what is expressed/acquired/felt.

But here the loop is complete and the discussion go around in circles. The only intrinsic part of NTR is being a weak cuck. That's what people who have the NTR fetish in real life want. What mater for them isn't to be humiliated or whatever else you want. No, what mater for them is to feel the humiliation (or whatever you want) of being a weak cuck.
But you explicitly refuse this as a valid reason, asking again and again for more intrinsic reasons that do not exist. Which just demonstrate that it's not just the NTR fetish that you misunderstood, but also what is a fetish.
You want to force rationality where there isn't a single once of it, in fetishes. But the fact is that fetishes are the exact opposite of phobias, and therefore stand outside of all rationality.

In top of that, you refuse to acknowledge that there's a different between liking a fetish, and having a fetish. The first one is about the liking of a genre of story, while the second one is about living a particular situation. And despite everything you say they are two totally different things.
Which fall back to what I said above. Since you're the author of an incest game, should we assume that you're banging your mother ?
Obviously, it's not what we do, we assume that you like this fetish, not have it. Like in fact you do yourself for every one writing an incest game, because you know for sure that they aren't necessarily incestuous in real life.

You apply to NTR reasoning that you don't apply to other fetishes, showing clearly that you aren't here to have your mind changed, but just to express your own disgust over NTR lovers.
Therefore, like baka said, you're just here to judge, not to understand.
I’m consistent with my fetish standard. If you don’t think there is rationality, you will never gain wisdom. the player chooses the fetish, and the question is why. if you enjoy the feeling of being ntr’ed that speaks to your psychology and it means you have the predisposition to doing it in real life. There are obstructions to playing it out in real life such as real life consequences, but it is undeniable that some pleasure is derived from it such that you are willing to play it out in a fantasy world. You can try split hairs by saying rape is control and not power etc but the fact remains that someone searching for a rape game does so for those elements, and now the discussion is about how if one searches specificically for Ntr it’s about those Cuck elements.

i accept what you say, contrary, to your assertions, that someone will not be a cuckold simply because they enjoy feeling humiliated like a weak Cuck in an Ntr game. But again, the fact that they take pleasure from such a fantasy is undeniable and is a pull factor towards doing it in real life.

it's not very complicated. NTR, at its core, is about corruption and moral degeneration. People who can't help but self insert won't understand. I postulate that NTR fans who actively imagine themselves being cucked and getting off on it are in the minority. Not that there is anything wrong with that either.

Fetishes in porn don't have to reflect on someone's real life character at all. The thread just rubs me the wrong way in how it tries to portray NTR as some lower form of fetish. "Incest is about control and power!" "NTR is for beta cucklords." zzz
it is only lower if you think scat is even lower. Also, search for corruption games if u want corruption. It’s not specific to Ntr.

Yeah I get you but you're making definitive statements here and being an arbiter of what something can and cannot mean.

I'll give you an example - A game that has a white male MC fucks a girl that is black. While they're having sex they have anal sex. Lets say I'm someone who is heavily into anal sex. You decide to define my preferences as a person who enjoys interracial sex. I could care less what color the male MC is, nor what color the female person is - I just enjoy anal sex. Interracial sex is irrelevant to me at this point, I'm there for the simple reason of anal sex. We can both be watching something and come to completely different reasons why I might or might not have a preference for that thing or enjoy it. You can also label me or define me differently than how I would define myself in that scenario.

Same thing could be said about NTR to a degree. Hypothetically, I could enjoy it because it speaks to my sadistic tendencies in that I enjoy seeing a person suffer or go through a personal humiliation. The inverse could be true - the personal humiliation could be a masochistic fantasy for me if the cucking or abuse is done to the MC. The humiliation can also be totally irrelevant for me as a person. I could be more into it as a voyeur. Or I could care less about the LI because I have completely loss any care or concern for their actions and at this point whatever they do is irrelevant to me. I'm in it because seeing a LI who I used to have interest in or hold in high regard now is debasing themselves and becoming a person overwhelmed with lust and debauchery. That could excite me because I get to see a person fall privy to their own basic carnal and lowly desires. Seeing someone stripped of their basic human decency and becoming subservient to their primal lusts and needs could be a draw for me. Or I could be into it because I enjoy the cuck aspect of it. Again we all could be watching the same thing but come to different reasons on why we might individually like it (which is more against the point you made where if you watch NTR, you have to enjoy it for the one reason you defined it as).

I guess my point is sure - NTR is the word or tag someone can see on a game but it could mean vastly different things to people. Simply defining it as "you have to be this one thing because it's black and white and that's the reason you like something because there is no nuance here" is more of a personal opinion to be honest. There are black and white issues out there, don't get me wrong, but I do think there's a lot of issues where they are various shades of grey. People can make their own judgments and definitions on why they like something. If you don't agree with why a person likes something because it's different than what you think something is, well now we're just talking about a difference of opinions.
I am happy to agree to disagree about the Cuck lifestyle. But I maintain that Ntr is specific for one thing only, and if you search for Ntr games, you must be after the Cuck fetish. You told me about your anal sex fetish, and I agree that it doesn’t mean you necessarily enjoy interracial. I have expressed the same using the bbc example. But I would question your honesty if you had arrived onto that game by searching for the interracial tag, then claiming that interracial isn’t a big deal for you, and that you were only after the anal scene.

if you wanted anal fetish, you would search for the anal tag first. This is not negotiable and not a matter of opinion.

Think NTR is too big of a term people tend to try to categorize as one thing.
There can be several factors why someone enjoy NTR.

1. Past experience can form what fetishes you enjoy. For example, If you are an introvert and had a crush on a girl but then due to your nature never had the courage to go for it. Then an 'alpha' male appear and take her away and you get 'traumatized' (big words but couldn't think of another word)
Another example could be simply catching your wife/girlfriend in the act with another.
There are 100's other examples but main point is- for some these make it so they detest fetishes involving anything like that but for others, the past experience has made it so those fetishes are actually what they enjoy and seek. Human mind works in very funny ways.
Of course, not neccesarily need any past experrience to enjoy those fetishes but more often than not it is the case.

2. You do not see yourself as the main protoganist (not the same as not being immersed). I tend to be one who have extreme difficulties 'being' the main mc. I am easily immersed in the world and story but don't think I've ever felt like the mc. That's why I hate silent mc (in adult and nonadult games) and have made my own mc someone with a background and voice.

For people like that, NTR could actually be a 'gateway' fetish that accesses some of their own fetishes. Blackmail is usually something associated with ntr.
Corruption is another big one. Seing the innocent girl fall into lust is a very big turn on for many people. Moreso when the girl is liked by the mc or is dating him. It only amplifies the corruption and lust.
So many times they do not feel the downside of the ntr (as they do not get the jealous or cuck feel) rather it is added to increase the pleasure of the fetishes they already have.
(Also why these people don't usually care about if it's netori or ntr)

3. Simply like being cucked. It's a fetish.

There are lots of more reasons no doubt, but the thing is- NTR can't be grouped into one thing imo.
I never cared about it. Not something that will be in my game, but it is not out of disgust or hate (as I have none of that for the fetish) but rather, it is not my own fetish.
If it was, I wouldn't give a flying *bleep* about anything and would add it in a heartbeat.
I don’t really deal with the reasons why one becomes a Cuck fetishist, but to point number 2, the argument is that if they were after those things like corruption, they would search for the corruption tag. If they wanted blackmail, they would do blackmail. By searching for Ntr, they become more specific to Cuck

Hmmm, personally overall I prefer to have NTR in h games but I do not enjoy the fetish itself, in fact in games in which the NTR content is optional or unavoidable you won't find me playing them (well some optional games perhaps, some are quite nice overall)

Personally I'm someone that likes to have both extremes on a game, if I can have a harem I want to have NTR too, I find it very fulfilling to earn the harem rather than following a few routes. In fact I thought about it quite a bit to see why I'm like that and... it's because I enjoy challenges.

In strategy games I like to defeat enemies that are stronger and more prepared, pushing my ability to the fullest and when I win in that situation I get a sense of accomplishment. The same it happens to me in h games.

I can play the hardest game with NTR on if I can at least manage a way to get my harem or good ending. A lack of good endings would take all my motivation to play the game.

Overall I should say that rather than NTR I like the challenge in itself, knowing that I can lose, I can be defeated and that whatever I'm doing matters, even more I detest unavoidable NTR (unless it is part of the start of the game and it serves as a storyline motivation) and optional NTR (I hate to let others win).

I don't consider myself a NTR fan because I don't enjoy the NTR scenes but I do the challenge it implies. However that I don't enjoy them doesn't mean that I hate them, even more sometimes it can give me a sweet revenge in the future and it is satisfying too.

Oh yeah, I may have gone off-topic a bit, heh.

About the second point and people just searching for the corruption tag and blackmail tag- they're already doing that. But as we know, there is never enough fapable material out there in the world!
It's just that the ntr can amplify those fetishes for them. Again, by not being the type who immerse yourself as the mc, they just see some weak mc that is being used for a story plot to advance to their desired fetish. The innocent girl with (or liked) by a guy that gets overthrown by lust (either by blackmail, corruption, or something else).
