Cake and Cunnilingus Day is a satirical holiday celebrated on 14 April as a female response toSteak and Blowjob Day, which is celebrated on 14 March. It was created in 2006 by web designer, writer and filmmaker Ms. Naughty and has since been adopted in multiple countries as a day to emphasize female enjoyment and honor women.
On this day, women are supposed to eat cake and receive oral sex (cunnilingus). The event has been created as a female response toSteak and Blowjob Day, observed one month before it,[1] and which is itself created as a male response toValentine's Day.[2][3] In a similar fashion to Steak and Blowjob Day, which supports breast cancer awareness, Cake and Cunnilingus Day has been intended to support charities such as the Prostate Cancer Foundation.[4][5]
In 2006, web designer, writer and filmmaker Ms. Naughty made a post on her blog proclaiming the day. She wrote, "women should have a day where they get to eat as much cake as they want and enjoy getting their clit licked without hesitation.”[3]
