Masturbation on TV? What channel? Sadly, it’s not on anywhere in the United States (thanks, Puritans). It’s happening in England.

Channel 4 is going to broadcast a Maturbate-a-thon in a documentary as part of what’s being called Wank Week. Participants in the Maturbate-a-thon will try to break records for most orgasms, and longest amount of time masturbating (8.5 hours!!!). They get 5 minutes each hour to “rejuvinate and renew”.

The event is being hosted by the San Francisco Center for Sex and Culture, who has done Masturbate-a-thons all over the United States and is taking their event to London.

Babeland has our own masturbate-a-thon, too. It has taken place in Masturbation May. We love it as a way to bring masturabation out of the closet it’s usually in and get people talking about self-pleasure as well as raising a little money for a good cause.

I hope at this Masturbate-a-thon they make sure they’ve got plenty of lube and good vibrators around. I’d bet the Hitachi Magic Wand would be up to the challenge.
