Date Night, Scored

Our best date night this year was the two of us in bed, rating sex techniques like Olympic judges. I gave my first perfect ten.

It started as half a joke. OMGYES has research from thousands of women on what they actually enjoy, with names for things we’d both felt and never said. We each picked a few to try and scored them out of ten. My perfect ten went to one called Broadening, and 86% of the women in the research liked it too.

Nobody was on trial. The techniques were, and we both won.

Women: if you’ve wanted to bring something new into bed without calling a big meeting, a game is the side door. It’s light, it’s funny, and it’s very easy to say yes to.

Partners: you get a scorecard, a reason to try again, and a front-row seat to what she rates highest. Few people get feedback this cheerful.
