“Yes, dear, it’s very stupid—but here I’ve come to rescue you. Would you please just let me rescue you? Please, just this once? I promise I won’t hurt you. I know it’s stupid and silly, but please let me be your fairy godfather and see what happens. What’s up? Nothing’s up. I’m just trying something— okay? Just lie back. That’s right. Fairy goddaddy’s going to make it all better. Sure he is. Lie back and relax.”
As in the previous game, depending on the nature of her depression and on whether or not she has been prepped for his routine, he will take one of three approaches: (1) The understanding approach: “Now, dear, talk to me. I’m here to listen to you as you’ve never been listened to before!” (2) The playful approach: “Ha, ha, ha—does that tickle? Well, how about that? Now, here’s a riddle for you: Why did the chicken stop halfway across the road? Give up? Because she wanted to lay it on the line. Get it? Ha, ha, ha!” He tickles her again. (3) The sexual approach: “How do you like your fairy goddaddy, my dear?” He wiggles and winks at her, touching his private parts. “Do you like his magic wand? Would you like his magic wand inside of you?” If all goes well, she will accept this offer.
The husband should use his imagination, embellishing the game with his own customized jokes, maneuvers, and the like. The game may be played more than one time. Just as a play gets better as it is rehearsed more, this kind of game improves with repeated performance, as inhibitions resolve. The first go-round may seem silly, and due to this may well be subsequently performed stiffly. But if both partners get into it and imbue it with their own particular rescue fantasies, the game will take wing and lead to better sex and better communication.
