3. Marital Games
• Almost any game can
form the scaffolding for
married life and family
living.
• Some of these games
are tolerated longer,
under the legal force of
contractual intimacy.
• Marital games can only
be arbitrarily separated
from sexual games .

4. Frigid Woman
• In this game, the
husband makes
advances to his wife
and is repulsed.
• After repeated
attempts, he is told that
all men are beasts, he
doesn’t really love her
and all he is interested
is in sex.
• When he resigns, wife
tempts him and the
game continues.

5. Beat me daddy
• The use of uproar
distinguishes frigid
woman from beat me
daddy, where uproar is
a part of a foreplay.

6. Beat me daddy
• In Frigid woman, uproar
substitutes for sex act itself.
Thus, in Beat me daddy,
uproar is a condition of the
sexual act, a kind of fetish
which increases the
excitement, while the frigid
woman, once uproar has
taken place, the episode is
finished.
