Being cuckolded (in this context) means unknowingly raising not-your-genetic-offspring while believing it is your own. A male partner’s infidelity can’t cuckold a woman.
But I imagine most mothers would be horrified to discover, ten years after the fact, that their newborn was stolen and replaced with someone else’s, and the child they’ve devoted so much to is not actually their genetic offspring.

‘Free will’ is the halting point in the recursion of mental self-modeling.
Our minds model minds, and may model those minds’ models of minds, but cannot model an unlimited sequence of models of minds. At some point it must end on a model that does not attempt to model itself; a model that just acts without explanation. No matter how many resources we commit to ever-deeper models of models, we always end with a black box. So our intuition assumes the black box to be a fundamental feature of our minds, and not merely our failure to model them perfectly.
This explains why we rarely assume animals to share the same feature of free will, as we do not generally treat their minds as containing deep models of others’ minds. And, if we are particularly egocentric, we may not consider other human beings to share the same feature of free will, as we likewise assume their cognition to be fully comprehensible within our own.
...d-do I get the prize?
