Pillow Talk Cards

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.

Maybe we don’t know where to start, or we think we should know it all by now. Perhaps some aspects of sex feel tricky, or there is simply not enough time to get around to talking about it.

This pack of cards is designed to spark the best kind of pillow talk: the sort where we explore sex with intimacy, playfulness and intellectual curiosity. Here are sixty questions to provoke some of the best conversations possible, guaranteed to leave us with a new sense of liberation and closeness.

• ‘What kind of power dynamics excite you?’
• ‘Something I’m really inhibited about is…’
• ‘In order to get me more in the mood for sex, it would help if…’
