Not sure how I missed THIS news item last January but it was linked to from an article about female sexuality which ran today which I posted about (Interesting article: "Why women have sex") so I wanted to see what all of you think.

IMHO, it's her's and she can do whatever she wants with it. It's nobody's business except hers and the top bidder.

At a practical level, in how much of the world is being a virgin a necessity for a woman to even be marriageable?

Ties in nicely with my weird news story of the day. Warning: the first link is to an adult toys site.

Renewable Virginity
Japanese innovation strikes again. Girls, lost your virginity and now you want it back for someone special? No problem for just $14.90 you can buy a fake hymen. Gently insert it 20 minutes before making love. It expands giving a tight feeling and upon penetration it expels a blood-like fluid. Be sure to respond appropriately and he need never be the wiser. http://www.gigimo.com/main/product/Artificial,Virginity,Hymen,2299.php?prod=2299
The Egyptians are apparently very unhappy about this product and are considering the death penalty for anyone caught importing it. http://carnalnation.com/content/32738/4/hymen-glyphics-egypt-pop-fake-virgins

What were you doing there?!

And for a less-than-funny take on the “fake hymen” theme, that is a surgery being purchased in Europe by the Muslim ex-pat community there, to be marriageable to Muslim men.

LOL...the post was sent to me but, in hindsight, I could have been improving my market value, no?

The whole thing reeks of ick to me. Virginity as a commodity (women or men as a commodity, for that matter). Deceit of this level (and all the other levels that involve taking away a person's informed choice).

Ick. Ick. Ick.

It is so complicated, ya'll, and it doesn't even have to be.

OH MY WORD!!! There are just some things I'm fairly sure that I could go through life without knowing and would be quite happy.

I think I would require some objective standard of third party verification for that price tag.

And somehow, I don't think a forty year old male virgin would fetch the same price. In fact, I think he may have to pay the same price in order to lose his.

However, it does demonstrate that many place a higher premium on purity rather than "experience." Perhaps, too much is made of the "unplucked cherry." But on the other hand, who wants the jaded countenance of the "experienced" for whom it means relatively nothing.

I'd say she's a lot smarter than he is. 3.8 million, pretty funny.

Can someone loan me $3.9 million?

You can write it off as a stimulus package.
