The West’s Price for Virginity

July 3, 2007 |

Some call it earning funds for college. Some might call it prostitution. What price is really being paid by her and the culture. Most will say… so what?  HT to Planck’s Constant.

Virginity For Sale - Offers start at £10,000

Baby-faced Carys Copestake, 18, has offered her virginity for the price of £10,000 to help her pay for university tuitions. The British 18 year old used a false name to advertise herself on a website popular with prostitutes, with her parents having no idea of the bizarre way of getting cash for university. The ad reads: “Virginity For Sale £10,000,” she adds:

“Hey, I think the title says it all. I’m an 18-year-old virgin with student funds to pay and I’m looking to sell my first time right here. I’m brunette, 34C, green eyes, all in proportion and good looking.”

Two years ago this happened.

Student sells virginity on web

A university student is planning to pay for her degree course by selling her virginity on the Internet.
Rosie Reid, 18, from London, decided to auction her virginity on the auction site eBay in order to avoid graduating with huge debts.

The Bristol University social policy student says she would rather sleep with a stranger than face years of comparative poverty.

No big deal. So why not let the family also profit from it. The going price for Chinese virgin is just a little over $1,200. Just sad that families and individuals will sell themselves out.

Mother sells teen girl’s virginity for 10,000 yuan

Prosecutors in Shanghai have charged the owner of a small beauty parlor in Jiangsu Province with selling her daughter’s virginity and then forcing the 17-year-old girl to have sex with the businessman who paid to deflower her.

Prosecutors allege a businessman from Shanghai surnamed Chen paid the mother 10,000 yuan (US$1,235) for the right to ravish her daughter.

Prosecutors wouldn’t say, however, if they have taken any legal action against the businessman.

In this culture what guarantee does the buyer have that she is really a virgin? Anyone so easily willing to sell their bodies are probably willing to lie about their current status. Just like the man they will get will lie about being disease free. But enjoy the money while you can… just tell that to your husband when you find out the disease you get doesn’t permit you to have children… or even pass on to the husband you claim to love. But hey… this is the 21st century… get with it.
