The National Orgasm Day is a celebration that celebrates sexual climax and raises awareness for issues surrounding sexual climax. It is typically celebrated on July 31 in places such as the United Kingdom, Australia, United States, the Netherlands, Canada and even South Africa.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] National Orgasm Day is an off-shoot of International Female Orgasm Day (August 8).[8]

International Female Orgasm Day

International Female Orgasm Day was first celebrated on August 8, 2007, in Esperantina, Brazil. It was created by the Councilman Arimateio Dantas when he passed a municipal law establishing the holiday in order to raise awareness for female sexuality and reduce stigma and taboo surrounding it, as well as repaying a "sexual debt" to his wife.[9] In addition to the holiday, several events were held in the town for the discussion of these usually taboo topics, with support from local and international communities and the local church.[9]
