Bidding to bed internet virgin
13 April 2012
A student claims to be auctioning her virginity on the Internet to fund her university studies.
The lesbian teenager, who uses the name Rosie Harmen, was offered up to £10,000 when she put an advert on the auction site eBay.
She attracted interest from all over the world and from other women. The 18-year-old, a first-year student at Bristol University, got more than 6,000 hits in three days before eBay pulled the auction.
She said: 'I need the money to study at university and I want to protest about the top-up fees the Government is introducing. My virginity is the only precious thing I have and can sell.'
