Here are the words from the link above.....

The International Day of the Female Orgasm -- or Día Internacional del Orgasmo Femenino -- is a Brazilian holiday celebrated each year on August 8.

The holiday is one of the more risque occasions probably ever to be given a name and a dedicated day, but it is also one that its progenitors and supporters hope will help women become more aware of their sexuality.

The female orgasm has long been a mysterious part of sex, as many women the world over have never had an orgasm, and many others find it very difficult to reach sexual climax.

But over the past few decades there has been a growing movement of women who want their fellow females to know the full pleasures offered by having sex, and the International Day of the Female Orgasm, celebrated in Brazil as Día Internacional del Orgasmo Femenino, is one of the realizations of that mission.

Sixty years ago it would have been absolutely unthinkable to imagine that a country would have an entire day dedicated to such a topic, but as more and more women became aware during the sexual revolution of the 1960s, 1970s and beyond, the female orgasm has come into the limelight.

According to the website Postiar.com, Día Internacional del Orgasmo Femenino originated in Brazil under some very interesting and highly personal conditions:

"The international day of orgasm is held every year on the initiative of the Councillor of the Brazilian people in Esperantina, Arimateio Dantas, who decided to compensate his wife for some sexual debts that he had, he proposed a day dedicated to stimulate sexual pleasure in its maximum expression," the site writes, coining yet another term for woman's climax.

The holiday is apparently very popular, as the term "Día Internacional del Orgasmo Femenino" became a worldwide trending topic on Twitter on Wednesday.

Popstiar also referenced a study by the Kinsey Institute of the United States that claims that "only one-third of women around the world reach orgasm from sexual practices."

Let's hope International Day of the Female Orgasm helps do something about that depressing statistic.

Why do they call it an international holiday if it is only celebrated in Brazil???

very cool idea - thanks for sharing! will add it to my list of annual celebrations and will be better prepared next year as well :)
