In this encore episode (first shared back in 2013!) we share our framework of Erotic Game Play and invite you to start creating playful baby steps towards the kinds of erotic experiences you crave.

Humans love playing games. From puzzles and word games to ball sports and races, humans love the thrill, challenge and emotional highs of games. The rules, roles and goals of any one specific game is how we shape the experience of play – you know you won’t be tackled during a chess match, and you can expect to get wet playing water polo.

What happens when we apply the framework of game play onto the thrilling, stimulating and risky ways we humans like to play when naked and alone with our trusted lovers? What freedom and extraordinary experience can come from the formal structure of rules, roles and goals?
