New Zealand virgin auctions herself for tution.




A 19 year old student offered her virginity to the highest bidder on a website so that she could pay for her college tution. More than 30,000 people viewed her post and more than 1,200 had made bids. Prostitution is legal under laws considered to be more liberal many countries. Prostitution in various forms such as brothels, in streets, and sexual services in print add, and online."Unigirl" didnt even post a picture of herself, she just described herself as being attractive, fit, and healthy. This was all out of desperation to pay for her unversity fees."I am offering my virginity by tender to the highest bidder as long as all personal safety aspects are observed," her ad said. "This is my decision made with full awareness of the circumstances and possible consequences."

I think that it is horrible. Yes it may be a more liberal country when it comes to prostitution but your just selling yourself like a piece of meat to anyone who's willing to pay enough. There are student loans and that's better than selling yourself.

I think that this situation is sad. There are other ways to get money for tuition. She could look at scholarships and apply for financial aid. Why would anyone be willing to sell their body and sink that low. That is horrible.

This is so sad to think about that the only way this girl can go to college is by giving up her virginity to be able to pay for it.

Trevor...we need a question for our group post.

And my reply on this is that I think this girl is gross. Is she only doing it for attention? or is she really doing it for her college tuition? There are many other ways to get around the idea of selling herself. I think that she is doing it for the publicity.

I think this is disgusting. Getting an education and selling yourself is kind of contradictory. If she is really that desperate, she should try harder looking elsewhere for scholarships rather than selling herself. I believe by doing this she is setting herself for failure, because she is sacrificing her values way too easily.

I think it's contradictory too. Because getting an education means trying to better herself. And selling herself to the highest bidder is definitely going to be taking her in the opposite direction.

I think that if you really want money for a tuition, you should get a job and work for it. Also, ask about Financial Aid. I believe that she is doing this just for attention.

I think that this girl is doing it for attention. If she wanted to go to college that bad why doesnt she ask for Financial Aid? or maybe get a job?

Selling yourself for money is the equivalent of having a low self esteem. There are a million and one ways to get money for school, that do not need you to sell your self.

Thats disgusting. Its messed up that there is someone out there who would do that. Her and all the perverts that put in a bid should get arrested or something. She could have just looked for a job..

It is ridiculious on why this girl would want to sell her body for tuition. Like many people said above why not just get a job or look into finacial aid programs. There had to be other options than to just put herself up to bid for the college money. In my opinion she took the easy way out and it shows she has no self respect.

I understand that she was desperate, but prostitution is not the only answer i agree that she could have found other way's of getting money, such as getting a job, to pay for her tuition.

Selling your virginity for tuition is grose. There are many other ways to go to college. Try getting a job, just a thought, that does bring in money. She needs to have more pride in herself and if its her goal or dream to go to college than work for it. It would make her feel so much better about herself.
