LONDON (Reuters) - Hundreds of Britons are being urged to attend what is being branded as Europe's first "Masturbate-a-thon", a leading reproductive healthcare charity said on Friday.
Marie Stopes International, which is hosting the event with
HIV/
AIDS charity the Terrence Higgins Trust, said it expected up to 200 people to attend the sponsored masturbation session in Clerkenwell, central London, on Saturday.
"It is a bit of a publicity stunt but we hope it will raise awareness," a Marie Stopes spokeswoman told Reuters.
"We want to get people talking about safer sex, masturbation and to lift taboos."
Participants, who have to be over 18, can bring any aids they need and can take part in four different rooms -- a comfort area, a mixed area, along with men and women only areas.
However, the rules on the event's Web site states there can be no touching of other participants nor are people allowed to fake orgasms.
"The amount you raise will be determined by how many minutes you masturbate and/or how many orgasms you achieve," the Web site said.
The Marie Stopes spokeswoman said local religious groups had been initially outraged, but after people had heard what the event was about, most had approved it.
Police had also given it their approval.
Similar events have been staged in San Francisco for the last six years raising $25,000 (13,000 pounds) for women's health initiatives and HIV prevention. If successful, Marie Stopes said it could take place elsewhere in mainland Europe next year.

Re: Masturbate-a-thon
THis is very, very strange. However, what is almost wierder is that somehwere in SF this is actually an annual event. Surely there must be an easier way for voyeurs to enjoy themselves, lol. Still, it is for a good cause.

Re: Masturbate-a-thon
I guess since you're probably gonna be doing it anyway - you may as well be doing it for charity...Good luck to them!

Actually that event was held at the same time, apparently the only time a scheduling clash has been good for both events!
How'd this go anyway? Any brits here rub one out for charity?

Re: Masturbate-a-thon
I hate to say this, but that is simply repulsive. One thing is to have, for extense, a few rock bands doing this kind of stuff, such as Status Quo, but a sort of "festival" dedicated to it?!
