Virginity Auction: Brazilian Student Sells Herself To Help The Poor
A Brazilian student has decided to auction off her virginity in order to build several houses for the poor, according to the New York Daily News. 20-year-old Catarina Migliorini has essentially placed her body on the auction block, and will award the prize to the highest bidder. The price of the college student’s virginity has reportedly risen to $160,000, money she will use to help construct homes for those in need. However, she’d really appreciate it if you didn’t call her a prostitute.
In order to properly document this so-called “virginity auction,” an Australian film crew will follow the physical education student as she embarks on her unusual mission to help the less fortunate. Catarina Migliorini, meanwhile, doesn’t seem too concerned about the controversy her decision has generated.
“I saw this as a business. I have the opportunity to travel, to be part of a movie and get a bonus with it. If you only do it once in your life then you are not a prostitute, just like if you take one amazing photograph it does not automatically make you a phototgrapher. The auction is just business, I’m a romantic girl at heart and believe in love. But this will make a big difference to my area,” the virgin explained in a recent interview.
According to the Daily Mail, the money that Migliorini receives from her virginity auction will be donated to a non-governmental organization devoted to building houses for the poor. For her troubles, the student will receive $20,000 as well as 90 percent of the final auction price.
In addition to chronicling Catarina’s first sexual experience, director Justin Sisely’s Virgins Wanted will follow a male virgin during his first encounter with a lady. In order to properly promote the individuals who have put their virginity up for auction, producers have pieced together an informative video, which you can watch over at the Daily Mail. Honestly, it’s a little awkward.
Do you think a virginity auction is okay if the person is donating the proceeds to charity?

I don't care if she don't want to consider it being a prostitute or not. that's exactly what it is!
Sep 29, 2012
ummmm, to be a virgin is a sacred thing and shouldent be treated like this, it should be taken by a true lover or if she is married, shouldent be taken on the account of other people needing homes…..sorry….
Sep 29, 2012
This is her own choice no one else's. If she's doing it to help the poor, GREAT, least someone is. I'm finding more and more often that fewer and fewer people are stopping to help others in need.
Sep 29, 2012
Her parents must be so proud.

“For her troubles, the student will receive $20,000 as well as 90 percent of the final auction price.”.
For her "troubles?"
Sep 29, 2012
there is other ways to help the poor , you don't need to sell yourself to help someone. yes this is prostitution no matter how you look at it.

If she wanted to impress me she wouldn't keep 90% of the final auction price. Lets be real, she is mostly doing this to benefit herself.

This is Prostitution and there are other ways to help the poor, and SEX is not it, So what happens when they want more from her and she does not give more, then I see a death because someone is not gonna take no for an answer!!!!!!

I feel if that's what she want to do, then who is anyone to stop her. It doesn't matter if it's for her own personal gain or for charity. Although, she's a really good person to want to make it her business to do it for her community. People have sex everyday. Everyone chose to have sex instead of staying a virgin. Don't try to live your life through this woman. If you want to cast a stone at her make sure your 'ish don't stink.
Sep 29, 2012
if men will pay so much for her virginity why not donate it to building fund to help her save her virginity? She is young and not thinking to straight. Sex for money is prostitution.
Sep 29, 2012
As it's her body, the decision is hers, but I see her having regrets later in her life. I know I would. Another thing – she would appreciate it if people wouldn't call her a prostitute? Well, hells bells, wtf does she think it is? When you receive money in exchange for sex, on time or 1000, it is prostitution. And, it doesn't seem all that great from the charity angle, seeing as how she's keeping 90% of the cash herself!
Sep 29, 2012
exactly….if it wasn't prostitution then she shouldn't get ANY money AT ALL
Sep 29, 2012
It is sad that a young person has to worry about such things. It is sad that some have such an abundance that they could buy such a precious thing as ones virginity and others have nothing to eat, or shelter from the elements. Such wrongs in this world!
Sep 29, 2012
Her body, her choice. It's definitlely out of the norm, but who am I to judge her choices? If this is how she choses to help the less fortunate, then big deal. At least she is helping.
Sep 29, 2012
The question doesn't make sense. "Do you think a virginity auction is okay if the person is donating the proceeds to charity?" Why does the destination of the money matter?
How messed up are people who won't give to these poor little kids of their own accord, but will pay for a virgin. AND they get to feel as if they've done a good deed.
If they wanted to do good, they'd just give the money.
She's smart in that she has found a way to raise money. She has enough life experience to know some men are creeps and will pay for what she is offering.
I don't think any man of honor would take her up on her offer. Of course a man of honor would have already helped the poor little kids.
So, she is going to wind up having sex with a creepy dishonorable fellow that won't care about her any more then he cares about anyone else, and might pass on an illness to her… will she get to HIV test him first?
Sep 29, 2012
Prostitution in Brazil is legal, although her advertizing it is not. It is possible that the government of Brazil is overlooking her advertizing because of the benefit of her "charity" work (although keeping 90% of the auction price seems less like charity to me….) That said, it's her body and I am not about to tell her she shouldn't do what she wants with it. After all, she is of age, and (presumably) whoever wins the auction will be of age, as well. Two consenting adults having sex is no one's business but their own (provided there are no significant others involved.) I just hope she is at least safe about it and makes sure that the winner is tested.

Then it better be a sacred thing for men, too. Oh and I feel sorry for all those girls who lost their virginities by being raped… Guess it will make them feel better to add "loss of something 'sacred' " to their list.
Sep 30, 2012
She should've switched her major from education to stupidity for this. It's so sad that girls like this only think about the money -she isn't think about the poor, it's just an excuse so people won't call her negative labels- and not about the horrible psychological problems that will come from selling your body for sex. Anyone who is able to dissociate from their body during sex risks severe personality and body disorders, and no amount of money she gains from the transaction will help fragmented psyche. So sad.
Sep 30, 2012
so hateful and spiteful there Julie and so thoughtless there Tyler your both idiots
Sep 30, 2012
i was going to post the same thing. if she gave all the money to the charity .. then it's not prostitution. if she's keeping 90%????? then i'm saying she's exchanging money for sex .. and uh .. yea, that's prostitution.
Sep 30, 2012
Why are people liking this? Is this what the world has come too? God bless this girl and hopefully she doesnt end up with a total creep.
Sep 30, 2012
Do the the math she not donating much this is not charity.
Sep 30, 2012
and you have a bible as your pic? yet you dont stand for anything in values of what virginity is, maybe you should study more of what the bible says about it then put that pic up dumb fuck =.=
Sep 30, 2012
I can not understand why someone would do such a thing. There are so many things that people can do to help the poor………if that's the only way I could think to help the poor, they'd still be poor. No matter how you look at it or say it …it is still prostitution… wheres her morals?
Sep 30, 2012
as it being sacred for men, those brought up in a bad home who dont know any better what the value of a girl truly is, yea i can see how a man greedy for sex can over look that, but were as i grew up in a house of christian parents who tought me the value of a women, that her body is sacred, beautiful…and should be respected…
Sep 30, 2012
Hahahahaha thats exactly what i was thinking
Sep 30, 2012
This girl is keeping almost all the money wtf she isnt doing anything out of kindness for others shes a fuckin dirty slut.
What do you call a girl that recieves money in exchange for sex??
Sep 30, 2012
and she wants atleast 160,000 for it… wth
Sep 30, 2012
I still can't believe she's going to get 90% plus $20k… That totally defeats the purpose, one would think. She's giving away less than she would have to pay in taxes here! I am curious who will actually pay to "trouble" her. Baha!
Sep 30, 2012
She's definatly just a dirty whore. If you get paid for sex idc how many times your a prostitute. That's the exact definition of prostitution. Just because you auction it off instead of getting picked up the the street does not make you any classier!
Sep 30, 2012
what's the starting bid and is it on ebay id hit that.
Sep 30, 2012
ehear do i make the bid
Sep 30, 2012
If she sales for $200k then they break even. No money to charity. She gets 90% which would be $180k plus $20k she gets = $200k
Sep 30, 2012
Betty Runkle Pennington "if that's the only way I could think to help the poor, they'd still be poor" – well, I mean,at least you know the value of your looks, right?
Sep 30, 2012
But she is selling her body so that is prostitution! Find another way to help the poor beside putting a sale tag on your vagina
Sep 30, 2012
Not cool! In fact, gross!
Sep 30, 2012
People are so intolernte these days. Most people seem to lose it by the time they are in college and most don't care who they lose it too so why are all of you calling her a whore? which of you would give any money away this way. Its a hard year and if this is the way she chooses to give thenso be but it is not for you to decide. By the way look at the rate of teen pregencies and think about that. While I don't agree with her decision I don't think I have the right to judge her for at least trying. How many of you are trying?
Sep 30, 2012
AFTER ALL IS HER BODY SO LET HER DO WHAT SHE WANT'S AND WHAT EVER SHE WANT'S WITH THE MONEY.
Sep 30, 2012
totally agreed… have some resspect and morals for one's self..simply give a homeless man a sandwitch and then be proud. but do do whaat she's doin, what's there to be proud of.
Sep 30, 2012
I'm really trying to understand why the hell anyone in the USA cares, because it doesn't affect them in the slightest. It's simply something provocative that Inquisitr is running to up site hits and get more ad revenue. Nobody actually cares, and even if this young lady donates only 10% of the money she's getting out of it, it's still going to help HELLA people where she's from. So who gives a god damn? It's not hurting anyone, and it's going to help some people, least of all Inquisitr, which will be making more money off of your collective indignation.
Sep 30, 2012
the real question is who the hell wants to pay the price of a house to fuck a broad who doesn't know what the hell she's doing.
Sep 30, 2012
we are very proud how do u think I met her mother
Sep 30, 2012
I assume that she gets to keep 90% because the company or whatever she is using to auction the "service" charged 10%. The article kinda leaves that part open to interpretation since it doesn't say who gets the other 10%.
Sep 30, 2012
She isn't cute enough to ask for that much ha
Sep 30, 2012
Granted her intentions are in the right place however if she wants to help the poor she needs to find another way of doing it. She should keep her virginity for her husband. However it's her choice and I pray she changes her mind.
Sep 30, 2012
Yeah I thought that was funny too XD
Sep 30, 2012
any prouder than the parents of jamie dimon?
Sep 30, 2012
mmm Interesting concept. Not sure what to think of the people who actually bid money or for the actions that the person who "wins" could or would take.
Sep 30, 2012
The 90% is what she is giving to charity Einstien – really, is it that hard to figure out?
Sep 30, 2012
Someone has a chip the size of Texas on their shoulder. You need to relax Julie and be grateful that there are still people out there like Tyler who still value women who are pure.
Sep 30, 2012
I Do too he should of thought of rape victims i apologize Tyler for calling you an idiot
Sep 30, 2012
No way
Sep 30, 2012
I'd never call you a prostitute…..but you will forever be known as the brazilian internet WHORE.
Sep 30, 2012
$20k + 90%? At $160,000 right now, that means she'd get $146,000 and the charity would get $14,000. That's ridiculous. I cannot believe she's brazen enough to say this is for charity when charity will receive such a small percent of the earnings.
Sep 30, 2012
i too would assume the auction outfit is keeping 10 percent and the 90 percent is what she's going to give to the charity. but it still seems like protitution to me. i don't think it's right at all. maybe if we could ask Jesus what he would do??? it seems to me that she should keep her virginity for a future husband and then pray and do other things for the charity that she cares about. i don't think God needs women to be selling their bodies in order to have the means to provide for others.
Sep 30, 2012
I was thinking the $20,000 comes off the amount before the 90% is calculated, so at $160,000, she takes $146,000 and charity gets $14,000. It's still ridiculous.
Sep 30, 2012
such a little bit of a mind you have matty. you obviously don't know what "principles" are and i'm sure you don't believe in "moral absolutes". i'm sure you don't care, but this girl could get a disease that she could carry for the rest of her life. and, what kind of a young man is going to want to marry someone like this knowing she did this? let someone she doesn't even know do this? it still ends up being a prostitute.
Sep 30, 2012
I think it is funny that some might assume that the 90% is the amount that she will give to charity yet these people also are saying that her personal sexual choices are amoral. I don't judge people based on religion, just actions. People that make bad decisions tend to make bad decisions in every realm of their world not just a select few.
Sep 30, 2012
Read the paragraph again. "the money she receives from the auction will be donated to a non-governmental org to build houses for the poor." (her 90% plus the $20,000 will ALL be donated)
Sep 30, 2012
If you really wanted to make a difference shouldn't she donate ALL of the money? Why is she getting to keep any of it?
Sep 30, 2012
what other kind of man would she end up with? i mean anyone who would bid on having sex with a "virgin" is already a total creep. i'm just sayin …
Sep 30, 2012
I RESPECT YOUR COMMENT RANDY BUT I STILL THINK THAT SOME OF US LIKE TO JUDGE OTHERS BUT DON'T BOTHER TO LOOK BEHIND OUR OWN ASS.
Sep 30, 2012
Cheryl Brock By keeping 90% I do hope/assume that it is the portion that would go to charity. If that is in reply to my comment then I just wanted to clarify!
Sep 30, 2012
They auctioned ppls virginities here n nevada at a bunny ranch and got.a.crap ton of attention, plus w recent hyman restoral surgerys..think us wants to feel they arent the only ppl doing this.
Sep 30, 2012
yeah, and that girl made MAD money. Of course, she was also waaaay hotter. And 22, lol.
Sep 30, 2012
I totally agree with this. But you know how men are. Oh wow a virgin got to have that.
Sep 30, 2012
Don't get me wrong I think it's one of the most admirable things I've read in awhile. Trust me I enjoy these posts a lot more than what people ate for dinner or that little Sally took a pee-pee today.
Oct 1, 2012
or the po ho

She could move in with me I am Poor.
Oct 4, 2012
This girl and any one else that agree with her idea of auctioning her virginity to raise money for the poor, undermind women in general! It is people like this that encourage women being put down and disrespected. Any man that bids on getting a girl's virginity, I consider lowdown scumbags!
Oct 4, 2012
She won't be helping much but she will live with it the rest of her life..
Oct 4, 2012
It is what it is. Getting paid for sex = PROSITUTION! HELLO………………………..
Oct 7, 2012
What she's doing is a choice, no one is pressuring her and she has made the decision of her own free will. If someone chooses to be a prostitute that is also a personal choice. Who gave anyone the right to judge them for it?
