GAMES FOR POLITICALLY OR MORALLY CORRECT COUPLES – GAME 1: POLITICALLY CORRECT SEX (PART 1)
Players: Husband and wife. Activist: Husband. Setting: Home.
Aim: In an exaggerated fashion, to mirror the wife’s need for politically correct sex so as to point up its absurdity.
Game Plan: One evening or weekend the husband approaches the wife and asks how she would feel about having sex. If she says she would like to, he continues to question her.
“Are you sure you want to have sex?” “Yes, I’m sure. Why do you ask?”
“Because Robin Morgan, the editor of Ms., says that even when a woman consents to having sex with a man, it’s still rape—since all men are in a position of dominance in our society, and hence even when a woman agrees to sex it constitutes giving in to the specter of male dominance and is a kind of psychological rape.”
“Yes, I can see the point of that statement.”
“So, how do I know you really want to have sex? How do I know you aren’t simply giving in to my male dominance now? How do I know it won’t be a form of rape?”
“You don’t know.”
“Then maybe we shouldn’t have sex.” “Maybe not. Unless I ask you.”
