One holiday I am ALL over.

Global Orgasm for Peace Day. I am so glad I read Alternet or this one would have just passed me by. The purpose is that we get as many people as possible worldwide to orgasm while focusing on world peace. The only thing is you can’t fake it. DUH.

When anti-war activists Paul Reffell and Donna Sheehan planned their latest peace-making project — the synchronized global orgasm — to fall on Dec. 22, they may not have realized that it’s the last Friday before Christmas. It’s a day many people take off, and so, have a little extra time on their hands. Sweet coinkydink or a holiday miracle, today’s your chance to improve the world — batteries not included.

And why did they propose it? Because human behavior has become too focused on violence.

The couple wondered what they could do to help change that, so they decided to use the same brand of witty activism that inspired a previous project, Baring Witness. As you might guess from the name, protesters used their naked bodies to create peace-promoting slogans and symbols — a tactic which drew international notice.
The Global Orgasm for Peace certainly has the same winking cleverness, but it also invites us to consider the power of collective thought. Does what we think really effect anything?

Hey it couldn’t hurt to try. I don’t know about you but I am already typing with one hand.
