Story time…
Imagine if we read all kinds of history books instead of fairytales…
Once upon a time there was a King who thought his Queen was so beautiful, that he devised a very sneaky plan with one of his trusted servants. He wanted his servant to observe the Queen naked, as that would be the only way for the servant to truly see how beautiful she was, “A man always believes his eyes better than his ears; so do as I tell you- contrive to see her naked”. His servant resisted, as he didn’t want to dispresect his Queen by seeing her naked. But he had to obey his King. So one evening, the servant hid behind the Royal Bedroom door and watched the Queen disrobe; however, as he was leaving the Queen saw him and immediately recognized him. Realizing this betrayal, she swore to have her revenge and devised her own plan.The next day she summoned the servant to her chamber and confronted him about his dirty deed. The Queen was so angry that she forced the servant to choose between killing himself or the King as a form of atonement. Again the servant was forced with a hard decision, but did as he was told. The Queen arranged for the servant to kill the King in the same way that she had been betrayed. The plan was executed, and the servant later married the Queen; becoming King, and father to the Mermnad Dynasty.
The end!
This my friends is a perfect example of Candaulism, (except the whole killing part lol). Candaulism is a sexual practice or fantasy in which a man exposes his female partner, or images of her, to other people for their voyeuristic pleasure…as well as his own. The term is said to derived from ancient King Candaules who made a plot to show his unaware naked wife to his servant Gyges of Lydia.
