Student 'sells virginity' via web


Rosie is reported to have sold her virginity over the internet
A lesbian university student who auctioned her virginity on the internet to pay for her studies is reported to have had sex with the highest bidder.
Rosie Reid, 18, from London, slept with a 44-year-old British Telecom engineer in a hotel room in Euston after he paid her £8,400, the News of the World reports.

But she told the newspaper: "It was horrible... I felt nervous and scared."

She hatched the plan to avoid graduating with debts of £15,000 from her Bristol University degree course.

'Uncomfortable'

Ms Reid, from Dulwich, had sex with the divorced father-of-two after he gave her a banker's draft, according to the News of the World.

Her partner, Jess Cameron, stayed in the same hotel while she went through with the act nearly three weeks ago.

She told the newspaper: "I felt obliged... to please him as he had just paid all this money."

But she added: "It didn't feel like it was happening to me. I felt like I was watching it happen to someone else.

"I was just so relieved when it was over... I was desperate to get back to Jess as I felt so uncomfortable."

The next morning she said she joined her partner and they "just cried and cried".

'Drastic action'

The social policy student put herself on offer in January, saying she would rather sleep with a stranger than face years of comparative poverty.

She is reported to have had responses from more than 2,000 men from around the world.

The student was working lengthy hours in order to pay for tuition fees and living accommodation in Bristol when she came up with the auction idea.

She said at the time: "I am devoting too much time to paid employment and not enough to studying.

"It started as a joke, and ended up as 'why not?'".

Auction website eBay later withdrew her ad, but she continued the auction through her own website.

It is not known if the News of the World paid her for her story.

Not for that girl's virginity....this whole idea of auctioning off one's virginity was the hot trend a few years ago. I guess it's making a comeback.

I love how the article made her out to be a victim...

And not a really expensive prostitute... Harsh I know, but I mean she knew what she was getting herself into.

Surely... ? Or was she that naive ?

And lets not forget about the 8k squid either.

Damn right, he did.

Good.

Okay, she sold herself. Sure he got ripped off. Sex with a lesbian virgin? What was he thinking? There was no way in hell it was going to be good. For that kind of money, he could have hired himself a bunch of sex with a pretty good looking prostitute who at least would have known what she was doing and at least could have faked being into it.

I think she absolutely got what she deserved here.

must have sucked...

i've had my share of virgins, and they aren't all that and a bag of chips... they are like wine, got much better with age. :)

I couldn't agree more.... I'd much rather have sex with someone with a bit of experience than someone with none, unless I decided to take on a new project and teach her the ropes... of course. ;)

I've got no pity in me for either one of 'em. If she wants to prostitute herself, I've got no problem with that. That's her business. Literaly. Just don't come crying later when someone takes you up on your offer. She felt "obliged... to please him as he had just paid all this money"? Well....yeah...that was the agreement...right? Did she think he was just gonna give her $15,000, and say "Awww, that's alright, honey, you just go run along now."

And another thing...what idiot pays $15,000....for sex?!? NO sex is worth $15,000!

Then STFU you dumb bitch. I wish I could sell my ass to the opposite sex for 15K. Shit, gimme $5!

I sold my virginity for sex. Woe is me. I could have made a few grand. I wouldn't have whined about it either.

Now we know why the guy is divorced: he's got no sense at all.

My guess was she wasn't really a virgin anyway, being a lesbian, and having a girlfriend I bet she has had sex before, just not with a man. In any circumstance, that guy got shafted, I hope he enjoyed it.

Live and learn, love and earn.

Ah, dumb girl...

Anybody could go up on Ebay and say "Up for sale, my virginity starting at 5 bucks!"

Remember the haunted coke can?

The thing about Ebay is that you can pick any shit and say something stupid about it and somebody will bid to buy it from you. That's the way the world works.

Should have sold my virginity...

Pathetic on both their parts.

I wonder if he did it just because he wanted to make sure didn't end up with a crazy man or something. Even so, he's still crazy for paying that much to have sex with a lesbian virgin.

Virgin just sounds good, but it doesn't really mean anything. Just inexperienced. I wonder why us guys think it's such a turn on...

I hope he got anal too! $15k for that, not worth it. Although being previously married, it was much lower price than when he was married.

So thats what "saving yourself" is good for. For me, i wouldnt feel right taking someones virginity under those kind of circumstances. What a hooker. Now if anyone ever asks,"who was your first". She can say, "some guy that paid for it". She wont ever forget about that one.

Seems like a fair trade to me. Being a lesbian, her virginity probably wasn't important to her, and since the man was rich, spenting thousands of pounds on the sex wasn't that much of a loss for him.

Kind of shows how astronomically expensive college educations are becoming.

Not so. Ebay will (and have) pulled such auctions.

I would have walked into the hotel room handed her the money then slapped her and walked away.

15K for her ass!!! WTF! She's not even cute.
I wouldn't give her the time of day, and certainly not 15K.

She does NOT look good enough for $15k.

dude was an idiot for paying 15k for that azz, what a loser!!!!!!....anyone seen indecent proposal (demi moore, woody)...sounds like a page from that movie...money does not equeal :)

What the hell did she expect it to be like? She put herself in that POSITION to be sold, so I really wonder what she expected. And lesbian too, so was that supposed to be the selling point? She sold herself to a man, so I guess that reinforces whatever idea she loathes men for.. (If that is the reason she "switched" over...)

Shit, I'd auction my virgin asshole off to any woman
if she'd allow me to do the same to her after for that amount of money...
J/K

:)

She really does look kind of goofy.

I'll bet she's made even more money off selling the article.

What a whore.

Her looks strike me as, say...unappealing, to be nice. I wouldn't do anything with her without getting money out of the deal.

Why this particular story of prostitution is anymore newsworthy than what goes on daily in cities all over the world is beyond me.

Funny story. Funnier for him than for her assuming she was lesbian and virgin.

i agree with almost everyone of the posts, first though, you can't say the guy was a fool, because you don't know what he looks like, this might have been his only chance to get laid buy a young girl that wasn't a skanky already-been-with-500-guys-at-the-age-of-19 prostitute. certainly she wasn't a "virgin' in the standard definition but she had never been with a guy, so . . . like most guys he probably thought either A: he would bring her the ruckus and make her heterosexual again, or B: that her girlfriend would join in. but he couldn't have assumed that he was gonna actually break her hymen, did he?

I can't believe some guy would actually pay that much to sleep with a "virgin"

With a different 'do, she'd look like Moose from You Can't Do That On Television.

That's a lot. Doesn't seem like it would be that exciting, either.

uh.. last i checked being a prostitute wasnt anything to be proud of, she better be sorry.

In the immortal words of SNL's celebrity jeopardy...

And the show has reached... a new low.

I say to her: Take out a student loan or don't complain about the deal you made, you whore.

It involves the internet damnnit! And as we know, technology is corrupting and evil.

shes not even hot.
what a shame.
mebbe i shoulda sold mine.....
nah, i like how i lost mine ;)
