• Quote

  "I know that a lot of people will condemn me for this because it's so taboo but I really don't have a problem with that. My study is completely authentic in that I truly am auctioning my virginity but I am not being sold into this. I'm not being taken advantage of in any way. I think me and the person I do it with will both profit greatly from the deal."—Natalie DylanTelegraph: Student auctions off virginity for offers of more than £2.5 million (January 12, 2009)
