Fair point, really.

And apparently some of the proceeds are going towards building homes for the destitute.

Real WtF is the pricetag, really. I'm pretty sure they've ran auctions like that and hit lower numbers :-\

Capitalism Ho!

I would retroactively sell my virginity for that much in a heartbeat.

3k... eh, not sure about that one. My first time was pretty amazing.

I would not sell my virginity.
It's not any moral thing about purity, it's just that I don't want my first time to be with some skeezy creep who'd buy a person's virginity online.

I'd like to meet this Natsu guy that won the auction, just so I could properly gauge his skeeziness.

The real question is - imagine the skeeziest situation possible. Now imagine the best "first time" possible. Now imagine a "normal" first time (awkward, over quickly).

Would you be willing to experience that skeezy situation EVER for this much money?
Would you be willing to downgrade a perfect first time to a normal one in exchange for a free ride at a halfway decent college?

All your losing out on is what is, statistically, going to be a not so great sex experience. I'm pretty sure its worth the trade-off.

And 980k wouldn't make you feel any better about it?
Personally, for that much, I really wouldn't care.

Lose out on 980K to not go to bed disgusted with myself every night about being like nothing but a piece of meat? Yeah, Sounds fair to me.

It may not be a moral thing about purity, but it's obviously a moral thing about prostitution.

Personally, I see nothing wrong with it, and if I got that much cash, hell yes.

Depends on the creep, I guess.
I bet there's a money vs creep's creepyness ratio which varies from person to person.

But yeah, it doesn't sound that unreasonable to refuse out of disgust

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

It's not like he bought a good time, just her virginity, basically just to have the privilege of breaking a little membrane that very well have already been deteriorated through natural abrasion.

I don't think it was a good deal, if you have that much money to throw around in a country where prostitution is legal, you might as well get the highest class escorts possible, because then you're specifically paying them to make you feel good.

Eh, I'd give it two weeks to a month, really. Plus pieces of meat don't get paid. They don't go on to live it up with the money. They to start a dream business or obtain an education they can really dedicate themselves too, without coming out owned by someone else.

980k (how did we get THIS large, wasn't it 78k?) would be more than enough to enable access to far more powerful positive experiences, in my opinion.

Would you rather be owned, body and soul, or would you rather sell a single night of your life, subjecting yourself to a dirty memory in the process, in exchange for actual freedom?

I mean, that choice is pretty clear to me - better a piece of meat for a night than a slave for a decade, hands down.

Prostitution is legal in the U.S. you know, as long as you are in Nevada and not in certain counties. (It's illegal at the state level, not the federal, and Nevada passed a law that made it illegal in counties with over X population.)

Well, I just plugged the last page and a half into the What-O-Meter, and got 1.21 Gigawhats.
