Brazilian student sells her virginity online for equivalent of $772,000
She rationalizes it's 'more sane' than having sex with a drunken stranger at party
A 20-year-old Brazilian student has sold her virginity in an online auction to a Japanese man named Natsu for £483,000, or $772,000 in U.S. dollars. Catarina Migliorini's virginity was bid on by 15 people. Lucas Zaiden placing the starting bid of $1 earlier on the Web site Virgins Wanted.
Twenty-year-old Brazilian student Catarina Migliorini has sold her virginity in an online auction to a Japanese man named Natsu for £483,000, or $772,000 in U.S. dollars.
PrintA man, 21-year-old Alex Stepanov from Sydney, also put his virginity up for sale, but only garnered £1,860. His virginity sold to Nene B from Brazil.
Migliorini will now be flown to Australia where she and Stepanov will meet the winning bidders. They will then lose their virginities in a secret location.
Migliorini justified the auction as she had not found the right person to have sex with and that taking part in the auction was "more sane" than having sex with a stranger drunk at a party.
She denies accusations of prostitution. "I saw this as a business. I have the opportunity to travel, to be part of a movie and get a bonus with it.
"If you only do it once in your life then you are not a prostitute, just like if you take one amazing photograph it does not automatically make you a photographer," she told journalists.
"The auction closed last night and Catarina is extremely excited. She was speaking to her family in Brazil online and they were extremely happy for her. But I guess they didn't expect her to do something like this," Sisely told reporters.
Migliorini says she plans to use the money to build homes for poverty-stricken families.
Under the terms and conditions of the auction, the winning bidder must have a medical examination and a police check. In addition, the winners may not be intoxicated during their time with the virgin, kiss them or involve anyone else.
They are also prohibited from recording the encounter. They are also warned not to expect to have any fantasies or fetishes fulfilled.
The minimum time the virgin must spend with the bidder is one hour and in that time "the virgin must engage in sexual intercourse with the highest bidder."

This is an extremely sad example of the very low price that this poor young woman puts on her body and especially on her soul. She says that "she plans to use the money to build homes for poverty-stricken families," but we know that "the end doesn't justify the means." If she doesn't repent of this action, she will go to hell, and then what? Sad, very sad...
