For International Masturbation Day, Pornhub reminded everyone that, even when working from home, we all need to keep it “Safe For Work.”

Working from home sure has its perks. No commute, permanent access to snacks and beverages of all sorts, and of course, the comfort of our own homes. But the convenience of virtual office comes with the numerous video calls that we all have to attend every day.

For International Masturbation Day (May 28, for those who did not know), Pornhub shared a strong reminder that even if we all have plenty of alone time, we all have to keep it SFW at all times, because, well, you never know.

In the minute-long video, Pornhub shows how Daniel thinks he’s left a work Zoom call when he decides to self-indulge. Problem is, Daniel was the host, and he never actually logged off…

The script is pulled from real-life incidents that have been reported on social media. Accidental flashing and bathroom breaks have gone viral at the beginning of the pandemic as people were learning to adapt to the new reality of remote work.

“Ever since the start of the pandemic, we’ve all had to adapt to working from home pretty quickly, and for a lot of us, that meant being connected to your coworkers on video calls throughout the day. But as we’ve seen recently, some people are still getting the hang of the technology,” said Alex Katz, co-founder of Officer & Gentleman.

International Masturbation Day was established in 1995 after U.S. Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders was fired by Bill Clinton for suggesting masturbation should be taught as part of sexual education in schools.
