Pornday is described as: "everyone's favorite arbitrarily declared, sex-themed holiday".
It was started by iesika in October 1999, with the first series of events being posted to their personal LJ. In March 2010, Pornday had its own LJ community and continued to be updated until September 2015. The tradition continues on Tumblr.
The concept is simple - a 24 hour free-for-all binge of porn posts, any fandom, any pairing and any format. The rules are equally simple:
The Rules
1) Anyone may declare Pornday – but the Declarer must be prepared to contribute at least two pieces of porn to the festivities.2) Pornday can be declared no sooner than 28 days from the closing of the last Pornday. This is so no one's ovaries explode.
3) During Pornday, porn shall be posted to the community by anyone who wants to help us celebrate. When Pornday is over, posting will be closed, to be reopened with the dawning of the next Pornday.
4) The duration of Pornday shall be 24 hours, unless Pornday falls on a Sunday, in which case we celebrate Pornday Observed, and the celebrations are extended an additional 12 hours for a total of 36 hours of mind-melting porn writing mania. And we have to sing.
5) The Zamboni driver is allowed an honorary final submission in return for cleaning up the rather disgusting porn-related messes, provided that they manage to do so before closing ceremonies. Anyone can be the Zamboni driver, but there can be only one.
6) The mods can make, break, or edit these rules at any time.
