Cash-strapped student offers virginity for fees

A cash-strapped 19-year-old is offering her virginity "by tender to the highest bidder" in order to help pay her university fees.

Under the heading "Relationship For Sale", "Unigirl" is offering up her innocence on the Hamilton-based I Need website, the Waikato Times reported.

Unigirl said she was attractive, from the upper North Island, and desperate for money to pay ongoing university fees.

"I have never had a sexual relationship and am still a virgin.

"I am offering my virginity by tender to the highest bidder as long as all personal safety aspects are observed. This is my decision made with full awareness of the circumstances and possible consequences."

She said she was fit, healthy, with a trim physique and had "no medical conditions of any nature".

Website proprietor Ross McKenzie said the website's policy was that as long as an ad was legal and did not offend the general standards of society "it was okay".
