The Center for Sex & Culture will hold its seventh annual fund-raising Masturbate-a-Thon in San Francisco, California on May 26, 2007.
The Masturbate-a-thon is an event where participants masturbate in order to raise money for charity. Founded by two American sexologists, Dr Carol Queen and Dr Robert Lawrence the event has run in the US for the past six years raising over $25,000 for women’s health initiatives and HIV prevention, education and treatment organizations.
Please note the correct spelling of the event is Masturbate-a-Thon. All participants must be 18 or over.
Aug, 2006 the UK held its first Masturbate-a-Thon where more than 150 people ranging in age from 20 to 50 + turned up to pleasure themselves for charity.

Participants must be sponsored by at least one other person or be self-sponsored. You get people to sponsor you per minute of masturbation. I hope this answer your questions. “Tries to reply without laughing.”:mrgreen:

Hammer, I imagine if you went door to door you would get a few doors slammed in your face.
Participants are encouraged to ask friends and family.

Per minute of masturbation? Some people would have to be getting a lot of money per minute in order to make it worthwhile.

Why do I see Hammer as Arte Johnson’s dirty old man character from Laugh In? You know…the one that was always making passes at Ruth Buzzi’s character. lol

Come as you are? Come one, come all? Oh come all ye faithful?
Oh dear oh dear. I’m pretty sure that events like this are specified in the sub-sections of the signs of the (wait for it) coming armageddon.

This Eclectic Life, In general, they hope participants will be able to raise $30 (or more) each. The current record is Female: 6 h, 30 min - Male: 8 h, 30 min
Viola, me too. I would want to video tape the looks. lol
Dazd, I’m not sure, but if you read Hammer’s blog you’ll see that he is not a dirty old man.
Peri, lol you make me laugh.

Not a dirty old man yet.
I do like Arty, especially on that tricycle with the nazi helmet
Here’s a tip. Never go collect money for a mastrurbat-athon wearing a raincoat

Are participants /performers allowed to use their toys? How about being allowed to assist or be assisted by hands of other persons?
