Well, my friend, we’re going to play a game called Cocaine or Dildo! I’m sure you know how it works – someone says whether they’d choose cocaine or a dildo and we try to figure out the reasoning behind it. It’s an interesting game because you can bring in your own values or opinions and see how they match up with your friends.
It’s also a surprisingly fun game. You get to hear your friends’ thoughts on drug use, on sex toys, on the many ways you can choose to live your life. And in the end, you usually find out something new about them. It’s incredible what you can learn about someone through a game like this!
I remember the first time I played Cocaine or Dildo. I was with a group of friends from college and we all thought it was just a silly joke. But we got out our drinks and gathered around the table to play anyway. We each took turns deciding whether we’d pick cocaine or a dildo. As the game went on, it got more and more interesting.
Some of my friends chose cocaine because they were worried about the consequences of using drugs. Others chose the dildo because they wanted to explore their sexuality in a safe, non-judgmental way. And then there were some who chose based on their own religious beliefs. Each person had their own unique reasoning and I was fascinated by the debates that followed.
I found myself really connecting with a few of my friends who chose the dildo. I’d never really talked about my own sexuality with them before and it was really liberating to discuss these controversial topics so openly. It felt like a safe space and I felt so accepted and validated.
We all agreed that the game was fun and thought provoking. We found that it gave us the opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper level. We connected over the exploration of risky behavior and the exploration of our own beliefs and values.
At the end of the game, we all realized that whether someone chose cocaine or a dildo wasn’t the point. The point was that we were able to openly and honestly discuss these topics without fear of judgment or ridicule. We’d all grown a bit closer and gained a new understanding of each other.
So, that’s the story of my first time playing Cocaine or Dildo. I’ve since gone on to play it many times with different groups of friends and it’s always been a rewarding, interesting experience. No matter what anyone chooses, it always leads to thoughtful and thought-provoking conversations.
For the next 4 sections of 5 paragraphs, I’m going to talk about the different ways that the game has served to open up dialogue with my friends about controversial topics. One way is that the game has provided a safe space for discussing our own sexual beliefs, identities, vibrators and practices. I have noticed that my friends who have been more willing to talk openly about these topics have found a greater sense of comfort and acceptance within the group.
The game has also provided a platform for discussing drug use and its consequences. By discussing our choices and reasoning with one another, we can learn about others’ perspectives on drug use and gain insight into why some people make the choices they do. It’s allowed us to examine the cultural values and norms associated with drug use and has helped us to more critically assess these norms.
The game has also enabled us to draw out conversations about mental health and its impact on our lives. Perhaps the most thought-provoking aspect of the game is when someone chooses cocaine but then when asked why they chose it, they draw from personal experiences that relate to mental health. This has enabled us to discuss mental health more openly and with empathy.
Finally, the game has enabled us to explore our moral values. It’s provided us with a way to examine our own beliefs about right and wrong without being judged. We can very easily identify what our own opinions and values are in comparison to our friends. This comparison can often lead to further discussion on the topics, creating an enhanced understanding of the topic between us.
It’s truly amazing how powerful this game, Cocaine or Dildo, can be in fostering conversations and connections between people. It’s always been a rewarding experience to play the game with my friends and it’s certainly a game that always leaves me with something new. Whether I learn something about someone else or I gain a new understanding of a topic, play Cocaine or Dildo never fails to bring worthwhile and important conversations to the table.
