Right to Sell/Bid on Virginity

I read an article on The Daily Beast written by a young female under a pseudonym sharing her perspective in auctioning off her virginity online. Among her ruminations in setting up this 'social experiment' of sorts, she mentions that she has a BA in Women Studies. I would assume a person who has a background in Women Studies would thoroughly understand the price placed on female virginity across cultures. In Africa, especially the Eastern and Northern regions, you hear of females subjected to genital mutilation. A recent NY Times article revealed how affluent Arab females undergo a risky and expensive re-virginization procedure in France to avoid their cultural's ostacization and familial's wrath at their indiscretions. The issue of virginity is indeed a complex tangle of webs that can simultaneously enhance a female's eligibility (as in the Memoirs of a Geisha, the protagonist was highly prized for her virginity) or turn a female into a pariah. Even in my country, virginity still is a delicate subject. A young unmarried female is assumed to be a virgin until marriage. Hence, the norm at a doctor's visit is to be asked by the doctor "are you married or not?"; a tactful way of gauging a female patient's morality and purity or lack of. Oftentimes, there are incidents where doctors have refused to treat young females who have engaged in sexual activities on grounds that they are morally reprehensible. But the article written by the American girl made me wonder what is the plausible outcome of her 'social experiment'? Is she going to give in to the highest bidder and pocket the large sum placed on her virginity? Will she herald that sacred event by writing more op-eds on the process and how it has taught her more on the power of virginity on society? In any case, she doesnt seem to notice the gravity of being a virgin for those whose lives are determined by that status alone.
