Virginity for sale? Who Cares?

The latest news to shock the world recently has been about a girl who looks to “empower” herself by auctioning off her virginity. Her anonymous alias name is Natalie Dylan, and she is supposedly 22 years old. She made this announcement on an episode of Howard Stern’s radio show, which to me doesn’t come as a surprise, as Howie always has some girl pulling off a ridiculous stunt on his shows. And ever since the announcement was made, people all around this country, and especially here in Sacramento, being that she graduated from Sacramento State, have been very upset with Dylan’s choice to sell her virginity.
To me it’s absolutely ludicrous that people are getting so angered by this obviously sad and twisted girl’s decision to auction off her untouched vaginal area. Who should care about the decision she is making? She’s not auctioning off anyone else’s virginity but hers. The only thing women worldwide should be mad about is maybe the fact that they didn’t think of the idea first!
People in America just need to realize that a girl’s virginity nowadays doesn’t mean anything! That is probably a harsh statement, but let’s be real ladies and gents. How many people do you know, that have lost their virginity to that certain someone, and is still with them, or married to them? The answer is probably slim to none. That’s for fairy tales, not the 21’st century.
The new trend these days is for people to experiment sexual deviance in their adolescence so that they could be ready later on down in life for their future husband or wife. It’s all about losing it on a drunken, one-night-stand kind of escapade in high school or college to someone who might not even be the hottest person, but who was just there at that exact time and place that you felt you were ready.
With all the sexual images that are being portrayed so heavily in the media these days, I wouldn’t be surprised if young kids at the age of 12 are already doing it.
Having sex isn’t as sacred of an activity as it was back in the day when our parents and grandparents were growing up. Back then there weren’t so many men and woman pimping and slutting around. Back then, people were on that really romantic, meant-for-each other type of hype. Most couples waited until marriage to participate in the act of having sex.
Nowadays, it’s all about who bones who, and the numbers affiliated with the act of sex. Especially with men, all guys feel that they need to add up to some number so that they are deemed worthy of being known as a man to their peers. Who knows if girls play the same number game? They probably do, but in more of a discreet way. Ssshhh…
But back to Natalie Dylan, as we seem to have gotten sidetracked a little bit. Let her do what she wants! If she doesn’t want to have that nice intimate moment remembered for being special with the candles, and the rose petals, with R. Kelly’s “Seems like you’re ready” playing in the background, why should anyone have to feel the need to dictate how this woman should go about giving her virginity away? Just let her be the one who will always remember her first time as being probably rough and awkward with some man that paid an absolute insane amount of money just to say that he was the man that for a better lack of words “popped her cherry”.
She’s a beautiful young woman, who supposedly is selling her virginity to afford graduate school. Shouldn’t people be happy that she wants to continue her education. That’s what’s more important here. The girl obviously has a lot more learning to do throughout her life, and if one raunchy screw gets her into graduate school, so be it.
