>>41228546if you were the cuck, you were shamed because you were perceived not to have maintained domestic patriarchy. so you were a victim, but you were also seen, in part, as responsible for your lascivious wife's misdeeds (which is a kind of interesting inversion of the historical standard, present especially in colonial settings, whereby women were seen as responsible for keeping men's sexuality in check). it should be noted, these skimmingtons or charivaris were usually mostly comical affairs as far as public shamings go, but cucks who were aware of and did nothing to hinder their wives' infidelities were typically treated worse than cucks who were unaware
i feel like i should also give a timeframe here -- this is in like the 1800s. skimmingtons and charivaris or whatever are present from at least the 1600s onward, but for some reason all the cuck related shamings i've found come from the 1800s. honestly probably just coincidence stemming from a limited historical record
