Oh Really?

So just some idle news I heard while driving home from work. It seems that s young woman is selling her virginity to pay for college. Well the story goes as such; There are two sisters that are trying to go to college. They want to become marriage and relationship counselors, and try to make it big. The younger sister had studied her butt off to graduate from high school sooner and joined your older sister in college. They both received their associates degree and were trying to go for their bachelors. Their step dad had gone through all the steps of getting them a student loan, but instead of giving to the girls he took off with the money which was 50k. He has a warrant out for his arrest.

So the sisters decided that they wouldn't let this stop them and figured that they were going to get the money no matter what. The youngest one is still a virgin so they decided to sell it. And boy was it a good idea. They got the help of Howard Stern to raise the bid, a gig on Montel and I believe Oprah. The current bid is 250k.

What does everyone think of this? Was this a smart choice for the sisters? Should they have tried to go another route?

Ironically around the same time an 18yr old boy tried to sell his own virginity on eBay and got the bid up to around 40k before they stopped it because the state he was in didn't allow for sexual sell.

I so dissagree... I'm sorry, but this just does not go well with me at all. If you need to know why, its church related morals. Thats all I can really give you.

First what kind of idiot would pay her for her virginty when there are hookers? She is just an expensive girl who wants money. Also there has to be a better way. Why would a couple go to a marriage counselor who sold their virginity, anybody against premaretal sex won't. Plus who wants to be known as the girl who sold her virginity to get money and go to college. They should really think of a better plan. Oh, and how did they get the idea to sell her virginty in the first place?

I was albe to hear the pros and cons about it. I mean first off shes a virgin which is a HUGE plus. I know sssoooo many guys who want that myself included. A hooker is going to be loose with a possibility of a STD. It's like driving a new car, you get to be the first one to put mileage on it. Of course she's going to choose which guy gets it, since it is hers and she does want it to be special.... and think of all the coverage shes getting, Stern, Montel, even Oprah. It won't matter what she did in the future shes going to be famous for a very long time.

Someone can be born with an STD, for example HIV, if the parent is infected. Point being, virgin or not the risks are still there.

I, for one, will never pay for sex.

thats pretty interesting remark, considering that she is technically not a hooker, however it does concern me that people would go to such lengths to make enough money to get to college.. could we say that its the colleges or schools' intuitions, classes, supplies and such...etc. are getting to expensive.. i myself find it hard, without my finacial aid, i cannot afford school.. though am sure they could have found a better way to go about it.. or could the virgin girl only be thinking of her 15 minutes of fame.. thats the real question here.

This isn't the first time actually. I remember someone wanted to sell their wife as well.

Personally, if you're at the point where you need to sell yourself over the internet for money, then you have proven that humanity can't be saved. Not only will people sell themselves, but there are people willing to pay for it. In this we can assume people would pay for anything and sell anything, given the need for money. And besides, these girls only sold themselves to get into college. Is it gonna be worth it?

Wouldn't Oprah be against this, I don't know much about her, but wouldn't she convince her not to.
Well I guess I shouldn't judge the girl it's her body, but I hope she relizes she's still a hooker no matter what the reason. I hope the fame and the possibility of college has not dilluted her mind into thinking it's anything else.

Well I'm sure Oprah and Montel would tell them that they would pay for their school for them. But that fact that it got to that point would be an incredible boost for their future. I mean think about it, before this they were unknowns. No one knew of them or heard of them. Now they are going to be on some really exposed shows and get coverage.

And for what? Sure, the "world" will know of their existance, but for how long? Their names wont go down in history like Peter the Great, Napoleon Bonaparte, King Louis XVI of France, ect.

How is selling your body for money any way to achieve glory in this life?
