International Day of Female Orgasms isn’t just a date, it’s a celebration of women’s pleasure, power, and self-love. Discover why this day exists, how to indulge solo or with a partner, and why science says it’s good for you. Plus, take on our cheeky challenge and make today unforgettable. Read on and enjoy!
Today isn’t just another date on the calendar, it’s a global love letter to women’s pleasure. International Day of Female Orgasms is here, and if there’s ever been a reason to light the candles, lock the door, and let your body take centre stage…this is it.
This holiday has a delicious origin story. It began in Brazil as a political statement when a councilman declared that female pleasure mattered, and not just as an afterthought. It was a cheeky protest against the social (and bedroom) reality that women’s orgasms have historically been ignored, downplayed, or treated as optional. Over time, this spark of rebellion grew into an international celebration, spreading across countries and cultures, inviting everyone to take a stand for women’s sexual satisfaction.
Make no mistake, this isn’t just about “getting off.” It’s about claiming space for desire, honouring the body’s needs, and dismantling the myth that women’s pleasure is a luxury instead of a birthright. It’s about unapologetically acknowledging that the female orgasm deserves attention, effort, and celebration, every damn day, but especially today. So whether you’re flying solo, tangled in the sheets with someone special, or somewhere deliciously in-between, today is your official permission slip to indulge.
Why Female Orgasms Matter (Yes, Science Agrees)
Let’s get one thing straight: the female orgasm is more than a good time, it’s a full-body, brain-rewiring, hormone-cascading event that science says is good for you.
When you climax, your body releases oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin, the holy trinity of feel-good hormones. They soothe stress, quiet anxiety, and leave you with that blissed-out “post-OOOOH glow” that no facial treatment could replicate. Blood rushes to the skin, circulation improves, and your body floods with natural painkillers. It’s nature’s way of saying, “You did good, babe.”
Physically, orgasms help tone and strengthen pelvic floor muscles, which means better bladder control, improved sexual function, and yes, even more intense orgasms over time. Mentally, they improve mood, lower cortisol (the stress hormone), and can even help you sleep more deeply.
Then there’s the relational magic. Sharing orgasms with a partner releases oxytocin, often called the “bonding hormone,” deepening intimacy and trust. In short, prioritizing your orgasms isn’t selfish, it’s maintenance. Like drinking water or hitting the gym, only a lot more fun.
How to Celebrate Solo
Let’s be real, no one knows your body like you do. Celebrating International Day of Female Orgasms solo is a gift that keeps on giving, because when you explore your own pleasure, you deepen your understanding of what truly turns you on. That knowledge? It’s power, whether you keep it for yourself or share it later.
Start by setting the scene. This isn’t a rushed two-minute session before bed, this is a date with yourself. Dim the lights or let the sun stream through the curtains, light candles or incense, and choose music that makes you feel like the most irresistible version of yourself. Slip into lingerie that feels luxurious against your skin, or nothing at all. This is your space, your time, your rules.
Next, choose your weapon of bliss. Maybe today calls for the deep, rumbling power of a wand vibrator. Or perhaps a clitoral suction toy that teases you until you’re gasping. Maybe you’re in the mood for a glass G-spot curve paired with a warming lube that makes every stroke feel molten. There’s no wrong choice, only what feels right in this moment.
Here’s the golden solo rule: Slow. It. Down. Run your hands over your entire body before you even think about touching your hotspots. Explore your thighs, your stomach, the soft curve of your breasts, your nipples. Linger. Let the anticipation build until you’re practically aching for more. When you finally give in, that slow-burn tease will make the release so much sweeter, the kind that leaves you limp, smiling, and thinking, “damn, I did that”.
How to Celebrate With a Partner
If you’re spending the day (or night) with a partner, this is your golden opportunity to flip the script and make female pleasure the absolute focus. Today isn’t about a quick release for both of you, it’s about a deliciously drawn-out exploration of her.
Start by making it an event. Turn off distractions, put your phones away, and dedicate time to nothing but her body. Begin with a massage, not as foreplay but as a full sensory experience, warm oil, slow strokes, hands lingering where they make her sigh. Whisper in her ear, tell her exactly how much you want to please her, and mean it.
When you move into more intimate territory, bring your tools into play. A small vibrator on her clit while you explore her with your mouth? A slim G-spot vibe that works in tandem with your fingers? A warming or tingling lube that sends shivers through her core? These combinations turn an ordinary encounter into a sensory feast.
Here’s a tip: once she’s reached her peak…don’t stop. Let today be about the encore. Give her a second orgasm, maybe a third. Explore how her body responds differently each time. Watch her melt into the sheets, skin glowing, hair messy, and that blissed-out smile spreading across her face. That’s the kind of afterglow you’ll both remember long after the day is over.
The Golden Rule of the Day
International Day of Female Orgasms isn’t about performance or rushing toward a goal. It’s about savouring the journey. Whether you’re exploring alone, sharing with a partner, or, for the bold, playing with more than one, the focus should always be on the pleasure itself, not just the climax.
Listen to your body. Notice what feels good. Allow yourself to moan, squirm, gasp, or stay silent, there’s no “right” way to experience it. Release any pressure to look or act a certain way, because the most beautiful orgasm is the one where you’re completely lost in the moment.
Your Orgasm Day Challenge
Here’s your dare: give yourself or your partner at least one orgasm today that’s so intense you can still feel it when you close your eyes tonight. Take your time. Try a new position, a different toy, or an unexpected setting. Swap your usual rhythm for something slower…or faster, switch sensations, or surprise yourself.
If you’re feeling especially cheeky, send a playful text later: “I’m still thinking about earlier…” Let the day’s celebration spill over into the night, the next morning, and maybe the whole week, because female pleasure isn’t just a moment, it’s a movement and today, the world is watching and cheering, while you claim yours.
