Cuckwin's law (or Cuckwin's rule of female hamstering)[1][2] is an Internet adage that asserts that "As an online discussion with a man grows longer, the probability of a shaming a man for not getting laid enough approaches 1."[2][3]‍—‌that is, if an online discussion (regardless of topic or scope) goes on long enough, sooner or later someone will shame someone or something for being born less attractive than other men or not having the same unchecked sexual privilege of carousel riding women.
