U.S.$32,000

Wait until she finds out that doesn't get you much more than a single semester nowadays.

Oh, like Natalie Dylan just a couple years ago, big whoop.

Quite interesting. She can fake being a virgin. It has been done before.

I know I am being prude but any guy who bid for this girl is a slimeball. The world has gone mad.

Do you mean in the US? In NZ it would pay for pretty much an entire bachelor's degree and possibly a master's, including living costs, unless she's planning to study dentistry.

Picture please. To put the story into context. Although a 19 year old visrgin in NZ is pretty unusual already.

All moral issues aside, $32,000 for a virgin? Seems like that money could be used more cost-effectively.

Sex for money, sounds like prostitution to me. Or maybe it's just "compensated dating", like here in Japan;-)

What convinces her that the education (which again comes with so much risk) is worth all that effort? I have seen many who have a good life without any of that education. The values the people have created to different things in life amazes me. Education is a status symbol for some, LV purse is for others.And virginity is the easiest selling commodity in the market?

Unigirl said she was desperate for money to pay university fees.

She must be an international student. Aussies and Kiwis can get student loans quite easily in the Shaky Isles

Seems to me that this girl needs an education in morals first.

Combini: In North America, particularly in the US, it wouldn't get you far, but the system in Australia and NZ is by far superior in terms of cost and support.

I say power to this woman... but I hope all get what they bargained for, and no one gets hurt.

How the heck can you condone this kind of behaviour? If you would be happy with your sister or daughter doing this, I would not want you in my family.

Some men are so desperate about buying the virginity. Some amount of bidding was high enough to buy a luxurious mansion or yacht. However if the girl is dishonest or unstable mentally , bidders just gambled and wasted their fortune.

Other way around is not every bidder is mentally stable and honest. The girl has to concern whether their bid is legitimate or not. The worst case scenario can be happened is she may be butchered and eaten by them. Human body is not suitable for auction.

Well, that explains why the American girl who auctioned her virginity a year ago accepted nothing under a million USD while this NZ chick will happily give it up for $32K!

I always wonder how young girls get thoughts like these in their heads! What ever happened to a student loan?!

Well, this juicy piece of "news" has certainly put an obscure NZ auction website on the map. Just saying...

I don't care if she offers herself up online. Her choice she'll have to live with that rep all her life. But I don't care if I had 50 million bucks I wouldn't pay a chick to take her virginity. Overpriced for unproven goods. The bidders must really be some sorry fellas.

good on her... I wonder how many women have lost their virginty to some guy they met in a bar when they were drunk and regreted it the next day...

I really hope that who ever takes up the bid, isn't some nut job. In one way I commend her, on the other, I think this is disgusting.

Who would really pay that much for a virgin?

I didn't know prostitution was legal in NZ. I would be interested in seeing a report on violent crime/rape and so on in a society where a person who felt certain pressures could see to them in a reasonable way. In America, you'd have to have sunk really low before you go to that point, given how disgusting the women doing that are, and the places you'd have to do it. In Japan, there are all kinds of places to get certain services performed, and I'll bet it takes the edge of for a lot of people. Of course, certain individuals will only cry "morality" without thinking of the wider picture.

I wonder if a man offered his virginity and brought it up for bid to ladies only ( I has to write this in this manner as it will be read in San Francisco) do you feel it would rate the amount of space as used above????

oh for sure. if she could first meet him and check him out, I am sure the 50 plus year old hag would be satisfied and pay out that he is an actual virgin even with no proof simply because of the idea.

Women and men are the same. Dont start thinking that women are not as dirty as men deep down. They are just as dirty.

And this article proves that New Zealanders are as dirty as Americans. Who'd have thunk it?

I have to agree with bobbafett, experience is far better than passion. It's sort of the rephrase of "old age and treachery will overcome youth and enthusiasm." Best to leave the groping to the teenagers. As far as the sum of money is concerned I suppose if you have a rare commodity then you can ask a lot for it. But I'll save the cash, thanks.

How can you identify true virginity and repaired ones? I don't criticise her but I wouldn't recommend anyone of my relatives do it.

I am very surprised to learn that prostitution is legal in NZealand. I've run into plenty of folks, most women who have argued that prostitution is demeaning to women and should be wiped from the face of this earth. I'm really surprised this is presumably OK with everyone down there. I'm also wondering why New Zealand doesn't have an image like Bangkok as the sex center of the world.

“A 22-year-old student in San Diego says she has received bids of up to $3.7 million for her virginity,” Yes but then finding a virgin in San Diego is probably really hard and the rarer a commodity is the higher the price.

“I'm also wondering why New Zealand doesn't have an image like Bangkok as the sex center of the world.”

This might have something to do with what Nzealand women look like, or more to the point don’t look like.

As for the girl selling her virginity, I have never paid for sex, new or second hand, so the idea of anybody paying out this kind of money for an untested and therefore inexperienced model leaves me thinking for people are simply too stupid to be allowed access to their own bank accounts.

Helter_SkelterFeb. 04, 2010 - 08:11AM JST

she has received bids of up to $3.7 million for her virginity,

Hey, my bid is $20 million. Just because someone makes a bid doesn't mean they'll actually pay it.

The guy should put the $32,000 towards a hot car. He'll get plenty of virgins.

Heheh, she saved her assets, while others spent theirs away. She's just now cashing on her investments. Isn't that just good capitalism?
