Sex dice is a dice game intended to heighten the sexual atmosphere and promote foreplay. [1] Instead of numbers, each face on the dice contains the name of a body part; the body part that faces up when the die is rolled must then be given sexual attention. [2]
According to a 1999 SPIN magazine article, the game was especially popular among American teenagers. [3]
In 2020 dice were controversially featured in a tool kit distributed to secondary school students by an LGBT charity in the United Kingdom. [4]
While originally known as "sex dice" and focused on sexual foreplay, the concept has expanded into a broader category of "love dice" intended for various aspects of a romantic relationship. [5] This evolution includes dice designed to facilitate non-sexual activities and decisions for couples. Common modern variations include:
The Daily Princetonian suggests rolling sex dice to "break the ice and extend [one's] foreplay." [6] The University Daily Kansan advises a roll of the sex dice for those who are not particularly limber (and therefore cannot try "new and inventive position[s]") as a means to "bring variety to [one's] bedroom romps." [7]
A commercially available version, also called Foreplay Dice, consists of two dice, one with body parts and the other with activities; a roll of the dice will determine which action is to be applied to which body part. [8]
