Medium · One evening

Said while it happens

One of you says out loud what is happening, and what happens next.

How to do it

  • 01

    Decide who talks tonight. The other says nothing beyond yes and no.

  • 02

    Whoever talks uses the plainest words you have, not the politer ones. Say what you are doing now, and what you are doing after.

  • 03

    Keep going for at least ten minutes after it has turned awkward. Those ten minutes are the whole recipe.

Look after each other

Agree in advance on two words that are not to be used about the body. It is easier to name them with your clothes on than to take them back afterwards.
