Student Auctioning Virginity at Brothel

Reuters

LOS ANGELES (Sept. 11) - A 22-year-old woman in the United States is publicly auctioning her virginity to pay for her college education, sparking a heated online debate about sex and morality.
The student from San Diego, California, who is using the pseudonym Natalie Dylan for "safety reasons," said she had no moral dilemma with her decision and found it "empowering."
But few bloggers sided with her and some suspected her intentions.
"I don't think auctioning my virginity will solve all my problems," she told celebrity television show The Insider on Wednesday. "But it will create some financial stability. I'm ready for the controversy, I know it will come along. I'm ready to do this."
"We live in a capitalist society. Why shouldn't I be allowed to capitalize on my virginity?" she added.
The woman, who has earned a bachelor degree in women's studies and now wants to start a master's degree in marriage and family therapy, is hoping the bidding will hit $1 million.
The online auction site eBay turned her down so the auction will take place at a Nevada brothel, the Moonlite Bunny Ranch, where her sister is working to pay off her college debts.
The date for the auction was not immediately available.
In a flurry of media interviews and appearances, she admitted that her mother, a fourth grade teacher, does not agree with her decision. Many on the Internet also disapprove.
"Maybe this is the conservative in me coming out, but this seems so wrong," wrote one blogger, Mike. "Isn't this prostitution?"
"I must say I feel sad for the future of our society," said Mike from Montclair State University in New Jersey.
"What disgusts me about this whole thing is the fact that she is promoting it so heavily. It seems less about having some guy pay for her virginity and more about trying to get her 15 minutes and a reality show," said a blogger called "Ent Lawyer."
She does have her supporters -- not surprisingly Dennis Hof, owner of the Moonlite Bunny Ranch.
"I think it's a tremendous idea. Why lose it to some guy in the backseat of a Toyota when you can pay for your education?" he told reporters.

What if she changes her mind after payment has been received?  Is that covered under PayPal's refund policy?

Hmm, can we say SERIOUS psychopathology?

She's publicly auctioning, and promoting, the loss of her virginity, yet "is using the pseudonym Natalie Dylan for 'safety reasons,' " Someone knowing her real name might be the least of her worries.

Her sister works in a brothel to pay off HER education...no influence there, I guess.

This one speaks volumes: "earned a bachelor degree in women's studies."  Maybe, MAYBE if she had "earned" her bachelor's degree in a real subject like Physics or English Literature I'd have a modicum of respect for PART of what she's doing, but... oh well, words fail me.

And finally...OH MY WORD: "and now wants to start a master's degree in marriage and family therapy"
That is TRULY scary.

Previously, I hadn't thought that "skank" could apply to a virgin.

I see I was wrong.

I don't have a problem with her auctioning herself off to pay for college, but I have some serious doubts  that this woman is a virgin, the whole thing strikes me as just an attempt at her 15 minutes of fame.

Seriously?  And that's three-six, not say, 26 or something?

Wow, brave of you to admit it.  Can I ask you, was that by choice or did you just not get any opportunities?

If you don't want to talk about it here, you can PM me.  (Or if you'd rather not talk about it all, you can tell me that too.)

Why does saying that make him "brave?"  What difference does it make?

Why on earth does it matter?

Well, I know people who don't care to admit that type of thing for fear of ridicule or having to answer stupid questions like, "Oh, well, what's wrong with you?" etc, etc.

To ME and sensible people it doesn't matter, but, you know...

To make it clear, though, I am NOT mocking Trevor or anything.

Ulthar -- c'mon.  You know that there are people (persistently juvenile types) who would make fun of this kind of admission.    None of us here would, but you certainly are not so naive as not not realize it..
