Evidently the going rate is around 3.8 million. What is virginity worth today?by Elizabeth Landau, CNN
quote:(CNN) -- Is a woman's virginity worth $3.8 million? That's how much a 22-year-old from San Diego, California, said she has been offered through an auction she announced in September. The woman, who goes by Natalie Dylan, set up a private auction through the Moonlite Bunny Ranch, a legal brothel in Nevada, has given her lots of business opportunities, she said. I feel people should be pro-choice with their body, and I'm not hurting anyone, she [Dylan] said. It really comes down to a moral and religious argument, and this doesn't go against my religion or my morals. There's no right or wrong to this. Others say there's just too much hype around virginity. Martha Kempner, vice president for information and communications for the nonprofit Sexuality Information and Education Council of the U.S., said telling a young woman to stay pure misses the point that sexuality will influence her long after she loses her virginity. By putting the emphasis there, [on virginity], we're actually devaluing the rest of women, the rest of her, and the rest of her sexuality for the rest of her life, she said.
Elizabeth Landau shows her bias in favor of Kempner's words above by pointing out the results from one study that says virginity pledges are ineffective, but she fails to mention any other studies which have shown abstinence programs to be effective: quote:A recent study in the journal Pediatrics showed that religious teens who take virginity pledges are as likely to have sex before marriage as their religious peers, and less likely to use condoms or birth control when they become sexually active.
