One of the most popular new s** trends has got everyone talking, but what exactly is ‘hotwifing?’

You truly never know what goes on behind closed doors when it comes to other people’s love lives.

Trends come and go, and there’s a new X-rated idea that’s getting everyone hot under the collar.

There’s truly something for everyone nowadays, from the surge in popularity of JOI videos to the unusual art of ‘hamstering.’

Many people are giving ‘shallowing’ a go too, while millions of women are enjoying affirmations in the bedroom.

While some people like to stick to the more wholesome side of things, there are plenty of new trends on the more experimental side for people to try.

Some married couples are even saying that the latest trend has ‘saved their marriage’ by spicing things up a little.

Some people choose to go to couples therapy, while others decide to try something new in the bedroom.

It’s still seen as one of the more taboo activities, so chances are you haven’t heard your friends bragging about this one just yet.

One husband, called Logan, told the Daily Mail that the new trend was ‘like letting your friend test drive your car.’

“He gets to see how well it rides. He’s got to give it back, but it creates a sense of pride. You get a little taste of what my life is like,” he added.

One wife who loves to take part in the trend insists there’s no envy involved, and swears it has introduced ‘a whole other level of comfort and security’ to her marriage.

“There’s really nothing like being able to share that experience with someone you love and knowing that it doesn’t diminish what we have,” she commented.

If you’re unfamiliar, ‘hotwifing’ is the hot new trend which involves husbands watching their wives sleeping with other men.

Apparently, it differs from cuckolding in that it is about ’empowerment’ rather than humiliation, according to Vice.

You might think that getting a third-party (or even more) involved would be a fast-track to jealousy, but fans of ‘hotwifing’ insist it’s the opposite.

Some couples take it to an even more extreme level, with one husband sharing his excitement at getting to see his wife be ‘defiled,’ while wearing her wedding dress.

Richard says he can’t wait to see wife Danielle be ‘defiled in a way that I’ve never seen her defiled before.’

“I just love the pristine wedding dress, beautiful girl, my own wife, just destroyed,” Richard said, explaining that the activities provided ‘a building block of love and trust, and it keeps getting stronger and stronger and stronger.’

So what’s the appeal?

Richard says he will get ‘entertainment and adrenaline from the defilement,’ while Logan’s wife Sienna says it’s ‘really cool’ for her husband to watch her with ‘two hot guys, just living my best life.’

An app called Wifey has even been set up for those who want to partake.

Meanwhile, Rebecca insists that ‘s** and love are two different things,’ and that’s why the trend works for them.
