Sacramento State grad auctions off her virginity

[cboy4]

A Sacramento State University grad plans to sell her virginity off through an online auction.

The 21-year-old, who said she is using the pseudonym Natalie Dylan for safety reasons, was interviewed on the Howard Stern radio show today.

"We live in a capitalist society," Dylan said on the show. "Why shouldn't I be allowed to capitalize on my virginity?"

Dennis Hof, owner of the Nevada brothel Moonlite Bunny Ranch, brought Dylan to Stern's attention. Hof said that the auction will be conducted through the Bunny Ranch website.

Dylan is willing to submit to both a polygraph test and a gynecological examination to verify the authenticity of her chastity. She said that she's pursuing the idea because of debt incurred when her father allegedly took out student loans in her name.

According to the Daily Mail, Dylan earned her bachelor's degree in women's studies from Sacramento State and said she plans to use the money to finance her post-graduate studies in marriage and family therapy.

"I understand some people may condemn me. But I think this is empowering. I'm using what I have to better myself," Dylan said.

Dylan was introduced to Stern by Dennis Hof, proprietor of the Moonlite Bunny Ranch, Nevada's famed legal brothel (seen on HBO's hit series "Cathouse.")

Hof says the auction will be conducted online via bunnyranch.com, and that the deal will be consummated at the Bunny Ranch, where Dylan's sister already works. "I think it's a tremendous idea," he says. "Why lose it to some guy in the backseat of a Toyota when you can pay for your education?"

There won't be any questions about Dylan's virtue: The lass says she's willing to submit to a polygraph test and a gynecological exam to confirm her virginity.

According to Dylan, she and her sister were forced into the skin trade partly because their stepfather allegedly took out student loans in their names without their permission, leaving them unable to finance their education.

She says she's already earned her bachelor's degree in women's studies at Sacramento State and that in January she'll start her master's work in marriage and family therapy there. She hopes to get a doctorate.

1. Also known as Prostitution.

[cboy4]

2. Yup, but perfectly legal next door in Nevada.

As far as I'm concerned, it's her choice .. even though I'd be horrified if it were my sister.

[undeterred]

14. Ok, so we're not allowed to criticize police officers but this

is worthwhile conversation. You've just defined yourself, cboy4.

[cboy4]

23. I didn't realize you were a member of the DU subject matter

police force, undeterred.

I think this board is big enough where I can mention both topics, and while it's crystal clear some are not capable of comprehending the difference between important subject matter and interesting water cooler items in the news, I'm confident most DUers can in fact recognize and separate each thread.

So save it. :eyes:

[undeterred]

26. Your attitude towards women is offensive.

So save it for the police force :eyes:

[cboy4]

27. You're a mess, aren't you undeterred?

:hug:

3. We're all whores of one degree or another.

She's just honest about it.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

9. I don't have a problem with prostitution and it should be legalized. I was just calling it what it

is.

[malaise]

5. Ditto n/t

[texasleo]

4. cute

[a la izquierda]

6. Degree in women's studies? I'd revoke it.

What a twit.

I don't believe any of her story about phony loans, etc.

[jakem]

8. i know plenty of very feminist women in sex trades, but i dont think that applies here.

[jakem]

7. sick.

first time and she is going to get a Karl look-alike.

[goodgd_yall]

20. eeewww

Wouldn't that be awful?

[ThomWV]

10. If she'd put a Buy-it-now on it at a reasonable price I might step up

As long as she accepted Pay Pal.

[SheilaT]

11. Why does this feel not quite

on the level to me?

[ThatsMyBarack]

12. THIS is what passes for NEWS these days?

[Romulox]

13. Wow. Disgusting! nt

[Stinky The Clown]

15. If one is a liberal and if one believes in a person's right to make a choice, why rail against this?

She is doing what is legal to do and is up front that it is **all about** the money. As for exploitation, would it not be true that it is she who is exploiting her own 'resource'?

[Dogtown]

16. Hoax

Publicity stunt for the Bunny Ranch.

[cboy4]

17. That could be. Yup you may be right.

Not that the Bunny Ranch really needs much publicity.

[Dogtown]

25. Sadly enough

I wasn't aware of it.
Maybe I don't get out enough...


It's cool with me, hoax or not. If it's a hoax, it's great marketing. If not, I'm pro-choice and she made hers.



Cutey-pie, though, is she not?

[Shine]

18. If trrue, it's her body, her choice. I just hope she doesn't regret it afterwards.

I can't possibly imagine thinking this was worth it, but whatever.... to each, their own.


Live, and let live.

[Sanctified]

19. That head does not seem to match the body, I am thinking it looks photoshoped. n/t

[Ghost in the Machine]

21. My thoughts exactly.... n/t

[onenote]

24. not even a good photoshop job imo

[Jokerman]

22. If I were paying for sex, I'd buy the services of someone with experience.

Why pay for an amateur when you could have an experienced professional?
