60 cards to prompt us to share our intimate desires

Although the pleasures of sex are well known, what is less emphasised are the pleasures of talking about sex: what feels nice, what we like to daydream about, what we long for, where our fantasies have come from.

My partner and I usually just watch TV after dinner, but tonight we sat down with the 60 cards and didn't stop talking for two hours—the prompts on everything from daydreams to specific sensations felt surprisingly easy to answer honestly. It's rare for a game to make you feel both vulnerable and co
