Is that right, you

And that's enough of that quote.
For the record, even by the standards of JFM that is unacceptable. So when you go back to school after the easter holidays how about you ask your teacher for some basic lessons in how to behave yourself.

A rather aggressive thread this. Maybe someone should lock it...

They don't seem to go in for locking threads much here - they either stay open or the odd one gets removed.

I have been married for 16 years. My wife is an attractive 5'3" blonde with very large breasts. When she goes out with her girlfriends on a night out she dresses in sexy outfits. I remember her getting ready about a year ago to go out to Edinburgh with the girls. She was dressed and the girls were waiting for her but she was all over the upstairs of our house looking for something. I asked her and she told me she had lost her gold anklet. I said she looked great the way she was but she just would not give up looking. She found it in the end and put it on. It was almost like she could not go out without it.
Since I have found out that there could be a link between the anklet and the Hotwife/cuckold scene I have been thinking that I may in fact have a wife that sends signals to guys in the know.

Not sure what to do about it?

When I found out I felt jealous but then I started to feel a strange thrill. My head is in a twist as I don't know what to think.

To the guy who is worried because his wife was looking for her anklet:
If you don't have any other reason to doubt your marriage, don't waste any time worrying about it. Its a common enough bit of jewelry and doesn't mean much. Dressing up for girls night out is also common. Without any other context, they don't mean anything. Unlike men, women often plan what they're going to wear for an occaision days earlier, rather than 20 minutes before they leave. That she would then search for the anklet to complete her mental picture of herself for the occaision isn't peculiar or sinister.

Its always more likely that a woman interested in enhancing her social status on a given occaision will be influencing others by wearing nicer clothes, jewelry, perfume, eye makeup, etc. That applies just as much to women out with their friends for a girls night out as any other time. Women generally don't dress down for each other, they dress up. Men are more apt to dress down for a night out with the guys. (Women dress up to signal the social status they would like others to think they have, at the risk of being competitive with each other. Men dress down to signal that they are not competing with each other for anything, at the risk of being underestimated.)

Unless something else about your marriage would have you believe your wife has transferred her affection to someone else, there was nothing to it. If your sex life stopped 2 years ago she's out 7 nights a week and returns just in time to dress for work, then the anklet wasn't the clue you should have been paying attention to anyway.

And as for the rest of the jewelry salesmen out there peddling the hot wife theory... You're more likely to sell fewer ankle bracelets this way rather than more. In my area, just about any woman whose weight is under control enough to merit baring her ankle wears an ankle chain, and it doesn't signal anything. They don't last all that well so they buy a new one every few years. If they thought if signaled something, sales would evaporate.

When I wear anklets it doesn't have any secret meaning to it at all, just that I like that anklet.

Exactly.

OK, to everybody who comes on insisting that if the girl's wearing an anklet then she MUST be a hotwife, that's rediculous. Nobody is denying that to some people, it could symbolize that, but it doesn't mean it does for everyone. I wear an anklet sometimes, and my girlfriend has this thin little braided one with tiny beads that she's had on since she was a kid, and it doesn't mean that either of us are looking for extra curricular action.

It's just like any other piece of jewelry that could be interpreted as somehow symbolic, plenty of people will just wear it for fashion. Like, in some places way back (and maybe in some places still), a boy who pierced his right ear did it to show he was homosexual. Now, they pierce everything and it doesn't mean anything. Or collars. For some people, wearing a collar indicates that you're a submissive in a D/s relationship. But when I was younger, for a little while I went through a gothy phase, and wore a collar sometimes, and it sure didn't mean I was someone's slave.

So, stop panicking the poor guys whose girlfriends may just happen to wear anklets because they like the way they look. It may mean nothing at all.

Yeah, given the number of people that wear them (males, like myself, included), vs the number of people actually into that bizarre stuff, the chances if it meaning anything at all, are virtually non-existant.

[lady canuck]

as was said "BOLLOCKS", they don't mean SH%T!
guys dream up that crap for all the suggestible girls out there! jewellry is jewellry, no deep bullsh#t in it!

My best friend told me the anklet represents a leg shackle and this means she wants to be dominated and treated as a love slave. I was foolish enough to believe him and ask her out on a date. We're still dating. It was the best trick he has ever played on me.

Models wear them in FHM & Nuts magazine

I remember my mother telling my sister, when we were teenagers, that in her youth they were only worn by prostitutes. Now I think they are generally seen as just another item of jewelry, but to be honest I can't think of the last time I saw one on anyone other than teenage girls with ultra short skirts on.
