Alina Percea is the latest in a string of woman who have auctioned off their virginity online to the highest

bidder. According to the Daily Mail, Percea, and eighteen-year-old Romanian was hoping to raise £50,000 for school expenses, but only got £8,800 (around $13,500 U.S. dollars).

The winner was an Italian business man, 45, who flew Percea to Venice and met her in the airport with a box of chocolates. After going sightseeing, the two retired to a five star hotel where they exchanges medical certificates, one affirming that Percea was a virgin and the other verifying that he was STD free. After a night of unprotected sex, Percea took the morning after pill during breakfast.

"I was attracted to him, so I enjoyed it," Percea later told the press, "even though it was quite painful."

She was hoping to earn enough money to have her own apartment while she went to school, but now she'll have to live with her parents. (How do you say awkward in Romanian?)

Percea plans to the see the business man again, but promises that she won't make him pay.

The most famous case of selling one's virginity online was Natalie Dylan. With the help of Howard Stern and the publicity generated by her auction, this 22 year old California student raised 3.7 million for her virginity. It may have helped that Dylan looks like a polished porn star while Percea is more of the Romanian girl-next-door. Still, young women looking to get into the virginity auctioning business can learn a few things from these cases. First, like the rest of the economy, the going rate for virginity has flat-lined. Consider holding onto it for a few more years until the price jumps up again. Second, don't have a fixed time frame like Percea. Wait until you start hitting the numbers you want. And thirdly, generate some publicity. Tempt bidders with a few scandalous pictures that demonstrate, while you may be a virgin, you have a pretty good idea what to do in bed.

If most people could sell their virginity for multi-millions without anyone else knowing, morals don't even enter the debate. But, when the numbers start dropping to less than the average price of a new car, the question of ethics becomes a bit uncertain.

It's hard to make a case for the fact that Persea shouldn't benefit from the sale of her virginity. It's not as if those who lost their virginity at college with the first dude who introduced them to Jello shots, or had his own apartment, are morally superior. At least Persea came out of the experience with some cash instead of just a sore crotch, a hangover, a promise to be called later, and the fear of a flesh eating STD.

What do you think? Is selling your virginity online empowering or degrading?

Good for her, she had somthing worth selling and had a good experience. Most student girls lose it to a spotty inexperienced twit in a dirty bedsit
