LOS ANGELES — "Shameless Sex" podcast hosts Amy Baldwin and April Lampert are asking loyal listeners to offer up their best out-of-the-box ideas and plans for their 24-hour Instagram contest, "F*ck (On) Valentine’s Day."
The contest which inspires both couples and singles to shape their own attitudes and create their own Valentine’s Day joy, is meant to be a defiant U-turn on traditional customs and beliefs.
“So many people are unhappy because they are trying to fit into the stereotypical model for what sex and relationships should look like,” says Baldwin.
“Valentine’s Day often amplifies this, so we wanted to invite folks to give the traditional Valentine’s Day model the finger while making their own rules for how they want to celebrate love and eroticism… and the feedback has been wildly creative!"
User "@ainbowray.onnectioncay" said that her “Valentine is driving two-and-a-half hours to treat me to a comedy show and then I’m going to suggest a rural cemetery romp for moonlit, spooky sex. Afterwards we’ll get our dance on at a local ‘80s dance part or stop at the kink bar for a Moulin Rouge-themed night of play!”
Solo contest submissions included "@rachelwritesaboutsex" posting, “As a single self-owned submissive, I’m planning to wear my collar and a cute outfit, take a hot shower, and have a luxurious masturbation sesh,” while "@iccialala" added, "I've naked-baked myself a batch of Tahini chocolate chip cookies, will dance to my favorite songs while eating them and then a bath with lots of getting myself off!”
