HAPPY ORGASM DAY IN BRAZIL YESTERDAY

Did you know that "Orgasm Day" is an official holiday?

It may not be marked on your calendar, but since last year when mayor Felipe Santolia of the small town in Brazil - Esperantina, 1,300 miles north of Rio de Janeiro - signed a city council bill, May 9 was proclaimed Orgasm Day with the goal of improving relationships between married couples. So yesterday must have been some celebration alright in Brazil !!

The first year this was a Municipal Holiday, they spent the day talking about orgasms from many points of view, even having panel discussions on premature ejaculation, a topic that's typically kept hush-hush. Clearly, sex is not the taboo subject in Brazil that it is in many other parts of the world.

Santolia said the idea of celebrating Orgasm Day at first created a scandal in this poor region, known for its religious fervor. But he said residents gradually warmed to the idea.
