DAY 313: GET-YOUR-FREAK-ON FRIDAY
Bringing It In: Your Private Party Rules

Do you secretly yearn to be one of those suburban couples hosting sex parties? (Order The Ice Storm from Netflix. You will be both titillated and very afraid.) Before you issue invitations, create your party rules.

Some suggestions:

1. Agree on who is invited—only couples, couples plus single women, couples plus singles of both genders?

2. Decide in advance whether you’re hosting a cuddle party, a limited sex acts party, or an all-out orgy. (Hint: Start modestly.)

3. Set a limit for number of guests.

4. On your invitations, be clear on neighborhood rules regarding parking, noise, drinking outside, etc.

5. Be clear on house rules, such as whether you will allow smoking, marijuana, or other recreational drugs; most important, specify that “No” means no and safer sex practices must be instituted if it’s a full-on sex party. Will people be asked to leave if they are drinking too heavily? Or putting pressure on other guests? Spell it all out. Enforce the rules.
