Feminists seem to call for a sex strike on a fair regular basis. These strikes are often inspired by or compared to the ancient Greek play Lysistrata. There is little evidence that sex strikes happen let alone effect change. Calls for sex strikes typically garner media attention for some cause but do little beyond this.

April 2017

Janelle Monáe called for a sex strike.[1] While there was widespread media attention there is no evidence that a sex strike occurred.

July 2018

Feminists call for a sex strike over Roe v Wade.[2]

November 2018

CNN calls for a sex strike to influence how men vote.[3]

May 2019

Alyssa Milano proposed a sex strike to protest restrictions on abortion in the United States.[4] Many women such as Bette Midler and Maureen Shaw supported Milano's position while others disagreed on the basis that it portrayed sex as something that women give to men.[5] While there was widespread media attention there is no evidence that a sex strike occurred.

May 2022

Joy Behar proposes a sex strike over Roe v Wade.[6][7]

June 2022

American Protestors again called for a sex strike over the repeal of Roe v Wade.[8]
