Quote of the day
posted at 10:00 pm on January 23, 2009 by Allahpundit
“When I learned this, it became apparent to me that idealized virginity is just a tool to keep women in their place. But then I realized something else: if virginity is considered that valuable, what’s to stop me from benefiting from that? It is mine, after all. And the value of my chastity is one level on which men cannot compete with me. I decided to flip the equation, and turn my virginity into something that allows me to gain power and opportunity from men. I took the ancient notion that a woman’s virginity is priceless and used it as a vehicle for capitalism.
Are you rolling your eyes?”

Yes, yes I am. Just have sex, get your money and shut up.
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 10:02 PM
Why isn’t this being considered prostitution?
Gohawgs on January 23, 2009 at 10:03 PM
Hooker.
CurtZHP on January 23, 2009 at 10:04 PM
Good grief.
Zorro on January 23, 2009 at 10:04 PM
It is. But the act and payment will take place at the Bunny Ranch in Nevada, where prostitution is legal.
amerpundit on January 23, 2009 at 10:04 PM
I though the charm of whores was that they don’t whine so much.
chunderroad on January 23, 2009 at 10:05 PM
Does AP get a cut based on the clicks? This is the SECOND article today about this hag.
platypus on January 23, 2009 at 10:05 PM
I’m outsourcing my comment to Ace, who nails it of course.
“This is why people don’t pay whores to run think tanks.”
Spirit of 1776 on January 23, 2009 at 10:06 PM
Isn’t this the chick who had sex with Spitzer?
HawaiiLwyr on January 23, 2009 at 10:07 PM
Isn’t there some famous line in a movie where the hero talks about the best thing about prostitutes is that they leave. This chicster needs to buy a clue.
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 10:08 PM
Some rich jihadi will pay just to practice for paradise.
NNtrancer on January 23, 2009 at 10:09 PM
The “tool” is going to be her.
tx2654 on January 23, 2009 at 10:10 PM
I wonder if Bill Clinton has put in a bid.
Percy_Peabody on January 23, 2009 at 10:10 PM
I called her a nasty skank before…I was wrong. She is an ‘all-powerful’ nasty skank. I, for one, welcome our new nasty skank overlords…
AUINSC on January 23, 2009 at 10:11 PM
Sad.
beachgirlusa on January 23, 2009 at 10:15 PM
LOL
beachgirlusa on January 23, 2009 at 10:15 PM
Keep telling yourself that while you cry yourself to sleep after the fact.
CurtZHP on January 23, 2009 at 10:16 PM
She’ll be in Obamas’ Cabinet in 3, 2, 1,..
Coronagold on January 23, 2009 at 10:16 PM
Amerpundit,
She’s may conclude the business transaction in NV but she is advertising this on her myspace page worldwide and she is a resident of California. Plus conducting interviews about her story from wherever.
Hmmm, think NV officials will make her take all of the medical tests required of the regular Bunny gurls?
Gohawgs on January 23, 2009 at 10:18 PM
Her parents must be so proud. Like the parents of the kids on the “Girls Gone Wild” videos. Since she’s her own pimp, will she open two bank accounts?
kingsjester on January 23, 2009 at 10:19 PM
Damn, I wish I had 4 or 5 million laying around…
bullseye on January 23, 2009 at 10:19 PM
Never happen. He never had sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky.
platypus on January 23, 2009 at 10:21 PM
Don’t care what any of you say. This girl has a couple of good points going for her.
MrScribbler on January 23, 2009 at 10:21 PM
I feel certain you could do better with less money. And could make silence mandatory.
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 10:22 PM
Sounds like you and Allah have something in common.
platypus on January 23, 2009 at 10:22 PM
I like the place in the article where she claims she’s praised by a Fortune 500 CEO.
Given the bailout politics of the moment, which certainly highlight the ethics of the standard Fortune 500 CEO, I’d say that she also thinks that silicone implants are cool, whether or not you need them.
unclesmrgol on January 23, 2009 at 10:24 PM
So this is what a steady diet of women’s studies does to a woman’s self-respect. Illuminating.
Splunge on January 23, 2009 at 10:24 PM
The guys at AOSHQ corrected her pretty well. She, like the moron that she is, claimed that the father of a bride accepted a dowry from the husband’s family when in fact it is the other way around. The family of the bride paid the dowry.
It completely destroys anything she has to say when she LIES and says she “studied this.”
jimmy the notable on January 23, 2009 at 10:24 PM
Nah brah, that was Kristen, something…
But she talks like she has been tapped before.
Gung Hee Fat Choy!!
Kini on January 23, 2009 at 10:25 PM
For all the nasty, snarky things that I could say, I just can’t. This girl is going to be a desolate husk after all this. I hope that she finds her way out of such a horrible, soulless worldview.
spmat on January 23, 2009 at 10:25 PM
Wait a tic,
I’m confused,
I thought,
the Liberals,
put a stop,
to drillin!
Oh crap,that oil drilling,nevermind!hehe.
canopfor on January 23, 2009 at 10:25 PM
So…sex is just a to keep women in their place and virginity is a tool to keep women in their place.
I guess either way they’re screwed (or not).
29Victor on January 23, 2009 at 10:28 PM
Nobody is paying 3.7 million dollars for that. This is all a scam…and a brilliant one at that.
She’s nothing special, but has somehow captured the headlines. Either she or her handlers are brilliant.
Asher on January 23, 2009 at 10:28 PM
So (I’ll play Devil’s Advocate), couldn’t any person caught for solicitation conceivably say they were on the way to Nevada to conclude the “business transaction”?
LastRick on January 23, 2009 at 10:30 PM
But she talks like she been tapped before
Kini on Jan 23,2009 at 10:25PM.
Kini:Aloha Dude!
Hey,this tapping you speak of,do you think it was done
in ‘Coarse’ or ‘Fine’ thread! haha:)
canopfor on January 23, 2009 at 10:32 PM
Soliciting prostitution is not legal in her locale. Even the other whores at “The Bunny Ranch” in Nevada can’t legally solicit in areas where prostitution is illegal (which would be practically everywhere). This idiot woman is not only illegally soliciting, but is doing so across state lines. Do you expect that she will report her lucre to the IRS as earned income?? I am aware that prostitution is legal in most places if you film it. That little technicality is one of the ways the porn “industry” stays in business legally. But there is no sign thus far that she intends to make her alleged de-flowering into a porno movie.
Hoof Hearted on January 23, 2009 at 10:34 PM
Oh AP… there you go again…
katy on January 23, 2009 at 10:34 PM
Or maybe just what passes for “brilliant” these days.
surrounded on January 23, 2009 at 10:35 PM
Or maybe Hillary did?
clnurnberg on January 23, 2009 at 10:35 PM
Methinks this field has been plowed before.
Little Boomer on January 23, 2009 at 10:37 PM
She’s been doing this since last year and isn’t in trouble.
amerpundit on January 23, 2009 at 10:37 PM
Or maybe Hillary did?
clnurnberg on Jan 23,2009 at 10:35PM.
clnurnberg:Now,that,was funny,lol:)
canopfor on January 23, 2009 at 10:37 PM
My favorite thing about this story (apart from the fact that we’re supposed to believe this 22 year old college student – whose sister is a prostitute – is a virgin) is how this womens studies major doesn’t know what a dowry is.
Infidoll on January 23, 2009 at 10:38 PM
After 30 years as a cop, I’ve met whores with more honesty.
GarandFan on January 23, 2009 at 10:38 PM
Funny she didn’t find out all this stuff women being oppressed until she took Woman’s Studies in college. Do they have such a thing as Men’s Studies?
BTW I think she will piss a lot of hookers off. Women who have worked for years plying their trade and will come nowhere near the almost $4 million she is going to get for one quickie probably from some Arab skeik.
Just A Grunt on January 23, 2009 at 10:38 PM
I know I’ll get a lot of crap for this but I don’t care.
If the winner of the bid happens to be some creep who does some very abusive things to her, I won’t shed a tear. She wants to be a whore then she can take the conciquences that go with it.
DethMetalCookieMonst on January 23, 2009 at 10:40 PM
So if someone is pulled over and busted for having a trunk full of pot, could they beat the rap by declaring “But officer, I was on my way to perform a business transaction at a ‘Coffee Shop’ in Amsterdam!”?
Hoof Hearted on January 23, 2009 at 10:40 PM
Aloha canopfor,
I’m not sure, but I’m guessing she’s dropped before.
If it looks like a pro, talks like a pro, then she’s probably a pro.
I wonder how her parents, especially her dad, feel about her views about virginity.
Kini on January 23, 2009 at 10:43 PM
I still ask:
If she gets raped, is is rape, or is it grand theft?
Sadly, that’s the question that putting a price tag on sex creates.
MadisonConservative on January 23, 2009 at 10:43 PM
Of course she does. But not 3.7 million of ‘em.
mcg on January 23, 2009 at 10:44 PM
Nice rack on that bimbo, however, I’m just picturing the crying, trembling mess you’d have to deal with once you were done with her and she realizes what a used up piece of trash she is.
Buzzzzz kill.
I’d rather drop $400 on a hot piece in Vegas, first she knows what the hell she’s doing and most importantly you wouldn’t have to deal with with the drama…and with a degree in “womens studies” uh, you know she can bring it.
Alden Pyle on January 23, 2009 at 10:46 PM
I really don’t see why anybody here should care…she doesn’t deserve sympathy or any thought at all…she’s got a 2000 year old ‘original idea’..sell sex. And anybody who buys this crap, and I don’t care for how much, deserves what they get…less than nothing. It is the moral, intellectual and physical equivalent of paying to take a dump.
AUINSC on January 23, 2009 at 10:51 PM
I hate weaves.
DethMetalCookieMonst on January 23, 2009 at 10:51 PM
Come on … this is clearly worth it. I mean really – how many men ever get the chance to have sex with a Women’s Studies major in the first place?
alchemist17 on January 23, 2009 at 10:51 PM
I don’t doubt that the spokesman said this, I just think he is lazy and wrong. If what he said was actually true, the Bunny Farm and every other legal whorehouse in Nevada would be advertising all over the internet and all over Nevada. The simple fact that this is not happening makes me still believe it’s really illegal.
Hoof Hearted on January 23, 2009 at 10:52 PM
You knew better but you just couldn’t stop yourself. I find this girl boring but that’s because I am not a guy but I would never want anything bad to happen to her and hope that she will safely come through this stupid activity.
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 10:52 PM
LOL!!!!!
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 10:54 PM
If it ain’t for free
It ain’t for me
Will the winner, or purchaser, of her…. prize…., ask for proof of purchase?
Will the lights be on or off. I mean, her lights are on, but there’s nobody home.
Will there be any restrictions as how…. lets see….. kinky the deflowering will, can, or should be?
Will Fredrick of Hollywood or Victoria Secret outfits be approved?
How about protection? STD’s? Jimmy Hats?
So many questions…..
Kini on January 23, 2009 at 10:54 PM
A turkey baster and some super glue and she’s ready to go again …as a blond ‘virgin’.
Methinks the dame doth rationalize too much.
profitsbeard on January 23, 2009 at 10:55 PM
Dress it up however you want, she’s still a whore.
Afterimage on January 23, 2009 at 10:56 PM
As a guy, I would wonder if after the dirty deed is done, what if she starts to like you?
I fear coyote syndrome would set in.
Or buyers remorse,
Kini on January 23, 2009 at 11:02 PM
Put she’s so smart and well educated. Such a catch, I am sure it would be fine. /sarc
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 11:05 PM
Maybe it’s the libertarian in me, but if there is no victim, where’s the crime? Looks like capitalism to me…Just sayin’
KCB on January 23, 2009 at 11:06 PM
He’s not paying for the sex, he’s paying her to leave after the deed is done.
Mojave Mark on January 23, 2009 at 11:07 PM
I read an article that there is a procedure being done in France to re-intact the hymen. Used predominantly by Westernized Muslim couples who’s families will require “proof” of a brides virginity. I am not very good at finding links and it was a while ago but it was kind of sad the hoops these kids have to jump through.
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 11:09 PM
I don’t want anything bad to happen to her either but if the winner is some creep that goes over-the-top with her I won’t have any sympathy for her.
DethMetalCookieMonst on January 23, 2009 at 11:09 PM
The Beatles need to rewrite Can’t Buy Me Love to That’s What I Want.
Oh they did you say….. hmmmm!!!!
The best things in life are free
But you can keep them for the birds and bees
Give me money
Thats’ what I want, thats’ what I waaaaaaaaant yeah
That’s what I want
Kini on January 23, 2009 at 11:11 PM
Gotta ask. After she does this and gets a degree in Masters Degree program in Marriage and Family Therapy. Who is going to be dumb enough to go to her for counseling?
Tommy_G on January 23, 2009 at 11:11 PM
She’s just trying to make the typically mush-headed political point. She’ll be a columnist for the NYT or WaPo before long.
ddrintn on January 23, 2009 at 11:12 PM
Seriously! Who the hell wants a virgin anyway? I want a dirty, dirty girl who can get me off with one look and show me a thing or two.
What’s with the virgins? I just don’t get it. It’s like getting on a race track with a student driver. Oooh, soo good.
Geronimo on January 23, 2009 at 11:12 PM
Thank you, Spirit, I needed the laugh tonight!
Weight of Glory on January 23, 2009 at 11:13 PM
Well I would because I don’t think she is as smart as she tries to appear.
Cindy Munford on January 23, 2009 at 11:19 PM
Need money? Pose nude for a life-drawing class. At the university level pay scale – so’s you’re not exploited.
BHO Jonestown on January 23, 2009 at 11:21 PM
You’d think someone who could afford to bid 3 million bucks wouldn’t have to.
Lily on January 23, 2009 at 11:22 PM
She knows how simple guys are. Good for her. Make that dough, ho.
SouthernGent on January 23, 2009 at 11:24 PM
I am womyn hear me whore.
DJ Rick on January 23, 2009 at 11:27 PM
Speak for yer self, dude.
AUINSC on January 23, 2009 at 11:29 PM
Selling her viginity is the oldest trick in the book. It’ll work for a few hundred first time buyers.
Limerick on January 23, 2009 at 11:35 PM
Anyone notice what she mentioned again and again in her little article? Her college education, and in particular, her women’s studies major. Twentieth century feminism was taken over by radical feminism, and as many people before me have already said, radical feminism will eventually support such activities like pornography and prostitution as a means of “empowering” women.
It just ends up making women easier targets for exploitation, and it makes such exploitation socially more palatable.
This chick will eventually wake up. Unfortunately, it will probably be too late for her.
Pope Linus on January 23, 2009 at 11:42 PM
And what did he bid?
Hog Wild on January 23, 2009 at 11:48 PM
Actually Kini darlin’, I am a sistah. Gung Hee Fat Choy to you too. I got me some house cleaning to do!
HawaiiLwyr on January 23, 2009 at 11:50 PM
That’s what womyn’s studies gets you, a desire to be a prostitute. She’s cute, sort of but not worth more than a what the locals charge. Craigslist has at least a hundred ads a day for $150 an hour not to mention the hundreds of “massage” parlors around here that do nails of a different sort. If the gal wants to whore herself out so effing what, its her choice and a non-story.
goat on January 23, 2009 at 11:51 PM
Wake up?! She knows exactly what she is doing…she’s selling ‘ginzu knives on TV!’ She is selling a crappy product (albiet, she’s claiming it’s premium, grade-A stuff, but all truly crappy products are sold under that banner) for an outrageous price, expecting a rich-loser rube (certainly a democrat…maybe even a democrat senator) to fork over for it. It will probably work, and she will be happy. And everybody knows what she is…and many will applaud her for it. I don’t have a problem with it at all…she’s hideous, but who cares…if she can sell that crap, she can sell anything. I see a bright future in used cars for her.
AUINSC on January 23, 2009 at 11:51 PM
She is about as much of a virgin as this one.
Mr. Joe on January 23, 2009 at 11:54 PM
She’s such a ditz. A Dowry was paid by the brides family to the grooms family. Not the other way around. She was “taught” ass backwards. She then bases her decision to sell herself based on her “education”.
In other words sweetheart, You pay for the penis. The vagina is free. You could even say that the father would pay to get rid of the vagina.
Guardian on January 23, 2009 at 11:57 PM
She will never be able to enjoy any sort of relationship with that attitude. She is to be pitied.
Buford on January 23, 2009 at 11:58 PM
First, she’s a prostitute any way you look at it. Claiming to be some kind of social visionary or whatever is nonsense. It’s just sex for money.
Second, if she actually gets paid that kind of money then I’ll be forced to applaud her… if only because she was able to get paid vastly more then her services are worth without any trickery. For the kind of money these guys are bidding you could hire a harem of better looking women for a month… let alone one average looking, smarmy, girl for less then a day. I mean, at most she’s worth a couple thousands dollars… and that’s taking the virginity into consideration. The only thing I can’t put a price tag on is the notoriety of bedding someone that has turned an offer of sex into a circus. Personally, that would if anything reduce her value if I were shopping around… but it takes all kinds.
In any event, this is just another story that famous for being famous… which only makes it more famous so the media makes it more famous. It’s an endless feedback loop that’s more then a little boring.
Karmashock on January 23, 2009 at 11:59 PM
Doesn’t change the fact that she’ll one day wake up and realize that she is no more than a cheap body to be used up and thrown out like a tissue. She thinks she’s doing something based in intellectual rigor and so-called “liberation.” But she’ll realize very quickly that her clients could care less about women’s studies.
But you’re right, used cars may be in this future too.
Pope Linus on January 24, 2009 at 12:00 AM
And it ran here & in Headlines the other day.
Move on.
jgapinoy on January 24, 2009 at 12:01 AM

You better use a rubber.she looks like a whore
Denniscat on January 24, 2009 at 12:04 AM
The only problem is that she can only use it as a veicle for capitalism ONCE so unless her stud pays $10 million for the venture it doesn’t really pay the way she’s hoping it will.
Amy Proctor on January 24, 2009 at 12:05 AM
Allah, for such a private person, you really just put yourself out there on this one…

This is a very judgemental group tonight.
KCB on January 24, 2009 at 12:07 AM
She said this in the article Hot Air linked to:
Good god. What woman would want this bafoon counseling her husband and children??
Amy Proctor on January 24, 2009 at 12:08 AM
“Judgmental” is in the eye of the beholder.

Skank……………
Picture a fat, bearded, un-showered, toothless, can’t wipe his ass, farting, worm ridden, wort infested, herpes ridden, smelling like death who won the bid………
…….. spread you legs baby, you will remember this for the rest of your life………
The pure stench of his semen makes the flies around his anus die, and now it is inside of you………
……….. forever.
He gets up, his sweat and bodily fluids in and all over your body, no shower, no bath can ever get ride of the experience……….
…………. and you find your “Prince Charming” in a year or two that you want to make babies with and finally live the dream,
His answer to you………
Ladies………….. you put too much price on the “prize”, and don’t think past that once you put a price on it, and not love and commitment, ………… well, then, to be honest…………….
……………. “sorry sweetheart, I gotta go……!”
Seven Percent Solution on January 24, 2009 at 12:09 AM
Yourself included.
spmat on January 24, 2009 at 12:11 AM
Yeah, but it’s a ‘Masters Degree…in Marriage and Family Therapy. Can’t go wrong there…can probably find lots of customers in blue states..especially is she can close this deal.
AUINSC on January 24, 2009 at 12:11 AM
Skank..whore…It doesn’t take much of a “beholder” to consider these terms judgemental.
