After a 20-year-old Brazilian auctioned off her virginity three months ago for $780,000, high school student Rebecca Bernardo made the decision she would also offer her deflowering to the highest bidder.
The 18-year-old says she is auctioning off her virginity in an effort to raise money for her ailing mother, who recently suffered a stroke.
After announcing the auction on YouTube, the Sapeacu native, who has so far received three bids, the highest at $35,000, told CNN: 'I made up my mind right after my 18th birthday. That's when my mother suffered a stroke.'The teen says she tried other methods of employment, such a working as a waitress, but the cost of paying for a caretaker to look after her bedridden mother proved too high for her hourly wages.
The stroke left her mother unable to fed herself or go to the bathroom alone. However Miss Bernardo's mother told CNN from her bed that she thinks her daughter 'should look for work.
'She shouldn't prostitute herself,' she said.
Adult prostitution itself, or exchanging sex for money, in Brazil is legal.
