Yes, you read that right. There is a group of people who call themselves ‘Ecosexuals’ who believe that making love with Earth will help save it.
Apparently, ecosexuality has been around since 2000 and about 100,000 people identify themselves as ecosexuals.
A faculty member at UNVL School of Community Health Sciences defines ecosexuals as “people who want to have sex with a tree and roll around in the dirt having an orgasm covered in potting soil.”
It seems that through having an intimate relationship with planet Earth, they believe that it will activate the innate sense to protect it. Just like how we tend to protect those we love.
And if you get turned on by something, then of course you’d want to protect it more right?
According to India Times, ecosexuality is now a movement led by performance artists in the San Fransisco Bay Area. They are Annie Sprinkle and Elizabeth Stephens who wants to add ‘E’ into the LGBTQI acronym.
Believe it or not, they even made a documentary on this called Goodbye Gauley Mountain: An Ecosexual Love Story. The movie supposedly depicts the relationship between them and the Appalachian Mountains and how they try to save it from being removed.
Spoiler alert! They marry the mountain.
Ecosexuals’ main goal is to save Earth from pollution and ultimately from indefinite destruction.
As weird as this movement and sexuality seems, they are all good in nature…
