A lot of people get confused about this question. What is the difference between a hotwife and a vixen? Let’s see if we can clear this up today. The core differences between the two revolve around power aspects, and the husband’s involvement in the wife’s non-monogamous sexual encounters. Let’s look at the traditional hotwife couple first, and then we will look at the vixen/stag couple. But before we start, let me make a statement about both.
A vixen is a hotwife, but not all hotwifes are vixens. Now, let’s clear that statement up so it’s easier to understand.
Traditional Hotwife Couple
Let’s do a quick recap of what a hotwife is. A hotwife is a married woman that has sexual encounters with other men besides her husband. This is done with the husband’s full knowledge, consent, and encouragement. The core focus of a hotwife relationship is her playing sexually outside of the marriage while her husband usually does not have sexual encounters outside of their marriage.
The role of a hotwife’s husband is often that of an observer of her sexual encounters outside of their marriage or is simply told about her encounters. The hotwife’s husband is often the organizer and gatekeeper of her extra marital affairs. He often selects her male sexual partners or helps her to find them.
A hotwife couple on occasion can lean a little into the cuckolding lifestyle where the man gets sexual excitement from being humiliated, excluded, and made to feel less than her bulls sexually.
The main vibe of the hotwife couple is centered around her desirability to other men, and his compersion or jealousy.
Vixen/Stag Couple
Let’s do a quick recap of what a vixen/stag couple is. A vixen is a subset of the hotwife lifestyle. A vixen/stag couple have a more active and recreational sex aspect, as well as being more playful. The husband of a hotwife vixen is called a stag.
The husband’s role in a vixen/stag relationship is different than the husband’s role in a traditional hotwife relationship. Let’s look at the main differences.
A stag is actively involved in his wife’s sexual encounters outside of the marriage. He often watches, joins in, and participates in MFM threesomes with her and another man.
A stag is rarely cuckolded unless he is sexually turned on by humiliation, exclusion, etc. He is more focused on her power and sexual enjoyment.
The energetic vibe of a vixen/stag couple is a lot more about the wife enjoying MFM threesomes or even gangbangs with her husband participating in a more active role than the husband of a traditional hotwife. A vixen/stag couple can be defined or referred to as a sexual adventures power couple.
Final Thoughts
Let’s sum up what the difference between a hotwife and a vixen is.
If the wife is having sex outside her marriage and the husband is sexually excited by watching or hearing about it, or enjoys some aspects of humiliation, she is most likely a hotwife. If that sounds like what the two of you want, then choose the hotwife lifestyle.
If the couple plays together with other men in threesomes or gangbangs, and the husband sexually participates, she is most likely a vixen. If this sounds more like what the two of you want, then choose the vixen/stag hotwife lifestyle.
Remember, all vixens are hotwives, but not all hotwives are vixens. You will also see a lot of crossover between the two, and many couples that practice true hotwifing and vixen/stag lifestyles. If aspects of both non-monogamous lifestyles vibe with you, why not try both?
