April 14 • Pleasure & Reciprocity
Cake and Cunnilingus Day
Forget the textbook—today we're debating the art of giving. Is romance dead without reciprocity? We explore why some cultures find it easier to talk about dessert than intimacy, and how cheeky holidays are actually saving relationships one cupcake at a time.
Speaking Discussion
- Why do you think food and intimacy are so closely linked in our language?
- Is it old fashioned to expect partners to trade favors, or is it just fair play?
- How does a joke holiday like this help couples bring up serious topics?
- Would you find a day like this empowering or just a bit too much?
- What is the most romantic thing a partner can do for you that doesn't involve money?
