Sex rarely makes the news in Brazil's conservative Northeast until a small town declared an official Orgasm Day on Monday.
Espertantina Mayor Felipe Santolia endorsed the May 9 holiday, which he said was intended to improve relationships between married couples.
"We're celebrating orgasm in all its senses. There's even a panel discussion on premature ejaculation. But from what I've seen, women have more trouble achieving orgasm than men, especially in marriage," Santolia said by telephone from Esperantina, 1,300 miles (2,100 kilometers) north of Rio de Janeiro.
Santolia said the remote town of 38,000 people has been unofficially celebrating orgasm day for years, but that the town's former mayor had vetoed a bill making it an official municipal holiday.

My aunt's a nun in Brazil. Wonder how she's handling this? I remember sending her "the New Priest"....anonamously of course.

In other news, I have decided to spend May 9 in Espertantina, Brazil.
I hear it's a lovely g-sp - um, I mean, vacation spot.

In Espartantina, be careful when someone tells you it's "Hump Day".

This is about as pagan as it gets. They're only one baby step away from building a stone phallus for the city to worship.

This is definitely the start of a descent down the slippery slope.
