"WE" really appreciate you in our corner so to speak, and thank you for all your supportive comments above.
However, over the years "we" have learned not to play to the peanut gallery. I would much rather focus on those who appreciate this or "our" lifestyle, and appreciate hearing of our adventures and encounters, although with the current pandemic activity is very limited. People judge others by their own experiences and find it difficult to understand anyone who is different to themselves. They then become a kind of troll that hurls rocks and tries to undermine genuine folks, driven primarily by their huge insecurities and inadequacies.
It sounds like you and your wife have a similar approach to life as Pops and I. Where "we" do everything together and get great enjoyment from it. It is very much out of the norm to encounter such negativity, but alas, I fear you/"we" would be wasting our time and breath trying to convince trolls that they are wrong. Facts/data/evidence will not convince them, they live in ignorance and would rather believe a lie (rather like in todays politics). "We" just have to be happy, along with the vast majority of folks who come here for fun, that such individuals do not reign supreme on this site. Again many thanks for your supportive comments, it is greatly appreciated by "us" both.

Thank you!

You're very kind, but I sure you, no thanks are needed. As I mentioned earlier in the thread, my wife and I don't see eventual, complete feminization as a goal or "higher level" of "true cuckold" than what we currently do. We feel we're all in with our without that goal. But we identify with much more of what you've written than what we don't, and we recognize that everyone's into different things. If there's to be room for OUR proclivities and interests, and OUR sexual growth as couple, there has to also be room for YOURS (and everyone else's). I always speak my mind when it comes to such things, I'm not just white-knighting, so to speak.
Also, I agree with you that it's not always worth feeding trolls, and recognize that I am far too easily lured into lengthy, fruitless debates with people who stubbornly cling to their own experience as the sole source of absolute truth. That said, I'm not yet convinced that
@WhiteCuckLoser is just intentionally trolling (and really, is it even trolling if it's unintentional?). I think it's like you said, people in general tend to "find it difficult to understand anyone who is different to themselves.“ I'm not arguing with the intention of winning an argument. I'm offering my own viewpoint, and sharing the experiences my wife and I have shared.
What my wife and I get out of sites like this isn't so much the erotica. There's better sources for that than here. And this isn't a particularly great place to meet people, unfortunately. Without crappy workarounds like threads where locations can be shared, you can't even search for people in your own geographic area. And the media you share is added to a giant community area subject to discriminatory rules, rather than limiting it to your own profile, where we feel you should be able to post pictures of your male half, for example. But what this site IS good for is being an open forum to talk about a lifestyle that is often misunderstood. Nearly everyone who's outside of this lifestyle makes assumptions we feel are worth trying to dispel. There's also a ton of dialog involving people who consider themselves part of the lifestyle but come with closed minds, and my wife and I both feel very strongly that the lifestyle should be safe and inclusive, and foster personal growth. As Patton Oswalt recently wrote, we support "ANYONE’S rights — to live safely in the world as their fullest selves."
So it's possible I wind up arguing with some trolls here and there, but for the most part I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. People may be tired enough of reading extreme, unrealistic fantasy from wannabes with overactive imaginations, and automatically start assuming most of what they see falls into that category. They might also be so committed to the ideas of femdom and female led relationships that what they would like to see is more female-centric content. Both my wife and I identify with both of those mindsets. We recognize that we've had our own tendency to slip up at times, and think that our perspective is the "right way" to look at things. Often those things are subjective.
I appreciate those who share their actual experiences, the sensations and feelings they've had along their journeys, the positive and negative effects their decisions have had on their own relationships, the rewards and hardships they've experienced, etc. And I'm confident I can speak for both my wife and I when I say WE value those who accurately represent themselves and what they're into, so that everyone can grow and gain greater understanding of each other. That's why I don't hide the fact that our play has included some bi male activity, for example. It's not a requirement, nor something that happens often. It's not even something we make a primary goal of our play, and could easily remain something we keep to ourselves, if meeting people for my wife to fuck was all we wanted to do. l definitely recognize that there are many who will make the assumption that I will make an unwanted advance toward a strictly straight man or something, and blackball us simply because I have admitted trying something they can't help judging. But we've chosen to be transparent because we think everyone in the lifestyle benefits from a sense of community and acceptance, and a greater understanding of other people. My wife and I have discussed the things we won't share for privacy reasons, and apart from those things, she encourages me to be upfront and honest (and perhaps a little bit self-servingly exhibitionistic) about what I share online.
Sheesh, that's a lot more than I was planning to write.
TL;DR:
My wife and I value the truth, and we appreciate others who expand our thinking by honestly presenting their perspectives. I do try to maintain a critical eye for bullshit, so it can be called out and made less prevalent in communities like this one, but I try not to jump to conclusions too quickly. We appreciate those who show us understanding and give us the benefit of the doubt sometimes, so I try to do the same when I encounter an unverified account or a potentially well-meaning debater whose stance is based on an assumption I think is incorrect. Honest input and perspective from the male half of a cuckold couple is all I'm trying to offer, and a good time for everyone is all I wish.
