husDOM Masculine Dominant Leadership Podcast

Hosted by Mr. Fox | Founder of husdom.com

[INTRO]

🎙 “Welcome back, gentlemen, to the husDOM Masculine Dominant Leadership Podcast – the podcast for men who are committed to stepping into their masculine leadership and creating deeper, more intentional relationships with their wives. I’m your host, Mr. Fox, founder of husdom.com, where we help men like you develop strength, confidence, and connection in your dynamic.

Today’s episode is all about playfulness. And I know what some of you are thinking—‘I’m not a goofy, playful kind of guy. I’m a serious man, I lead, I get things done.’ And that’s great! That’s part of being a strong, dominant leader. But here’s the reality—if you don’t bring an element of playfulness into your dynamic, you’re missing a massive opportunity to create chemistry, attraction, and connection with your wife.

So today, we’re breaking down: ✅ Why men struggle with playfulness. ✅ The difference between groping and genuine connection. ✅ How to use intentional touch to get the response you actually want. ✅ Sexual playfulness vs. non-sexual playfulness—and how to use both effectively. ✅ Practical steps you can take today to make this a natural part of your leadership.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have an entirely new perspective on what playfulness actually is—and how it can make you a stronger, more effective leader in your marriage. Let’s dive in.”

[Why Men Struggle with Playfulness]

“Alright, let’s start here—why is playfulness hard for men?

As men, we’re wired to be serious. We focus on tasks, goals, and solving problems. Playfulness? It’s not a default setting for most of us.

But here’s what I want you to understand—your wife thrives on playfulness, spontaneity, and emotional energy. She wants to feel something when she’s with you. That feeling is what keeps the chemistry and attraction alive.

Now, if you’re always locked in “serious mode,” you’re missing those small opportunities to create a fun, flirty, engaging relationship.

🔹 Actionable Challenge: Find one opportunity today to replace your usual serious response with something lighthearted and playful. 👉 Example: Instead of saying ‘Hey, how was your day?’ in a neutral tone, walk up behind her, wrap an arm around her waist, and say, ‘Did you miss me yet, or should I come back later?’

It’s a small shift, but it completely changes the energy between you two.”

[The Difference Between Groping & Genuine Connection]

“Alright, let’s talk about the grope—because a lot of married men mistake ‘being playful’ with just grabbing their wife’s butt or boobs.

Now listen—there’s a time and a place for that. But here’s what’s important—if she’s busy, stressed, or in a completely different headspace, that grab doesn’t feel playful to her. It feels intrusive, like an interruption.

Women need constant physical connection, but that doesn’t always mean sexual touch. It means touch that reassures, connects, and makes her feel seen.

🔹 Playful Leadership Move:

• Instead of grabbing, try guiding.

• While she’s cooking, place your hand lightly on her lower back and whisper something like, ‘You know, I think I need to steal a moment with you before you get back to being a goddess in the kitchen.’

• Or as she walks past you, gently brush your fingers over her wrist—just enough to make her pause and look at you.

🎯 Your Challenge: Replace one grope per day with an intentional, affectionate touch and see how she responds.“

[Why Are You Touching Her? Setting Your Intent]

“Before you touch her, ask yourself:

1️⃣ Why am I touching her?

2️⃣ How do I want her to feel?

3️⃣ Will this get the response I’m looking for?

Too often, men touch their wives without thinking—and then they wonder why they don’t get the reaction they wanted.

🔹 Playful Leadership Move:

• If she’s stressed, she needs grounding, slow, intentional touch.

• If she’s playful, she needs light teasing, playful resistance, and flirtation.

🎯 Your Challenge: Be intentional with your touch for 24 hours. Before you touch her, check your intent.”

[Sexual Playfulness – Keeping Desire Alive]

*”Sexual playfulness isn’t about always going straight for the goal. It’s about teasing, building tension, and keeping her guessing.

If she knows exactly what you’re going to do every time, it gets predictable. And predictability kills passion.

🔹 Playful Leadership Move:

• Instead of your usual goodnight kiss, lean in like you’re going to… then smirk and walk away.

• If she asks ‘What are you thinking about?’—instead of saying ‘Nothing’, give her a teasing smirk and say, ‘Just picturing you in that dress I like… or out of it.’ Then walk away.

🎯 Your Challenge: Tease her sexually today without escalating immediately. Let anticipation build.“

[CLOSING THOUGHTS & FINAL CHALLENGE]

“Alright gentlemen, here’s your final challenge. For the next week, practice these three types of playfulness every day:

1️⃣ Lighthearted teasing – Verbal or situational humor.

2️⃣ Non-sexual physical touch – Affection, security, and connection.

3️⃣ Sexual teasing – Build desire without rushing it.

The goal? To shift from reactive habits to intentional leadership in your playfulness.
