Daily Mail – Tax authorities in Germany are poised to claim 50 per cent of the money that a teenage student earned for ‘auctioning’ her virginity because they claim it was ‘tantamount to prostitution’. Romanian-born Alina Percea, who is a student in Germany, was paid £8,800 in cash for a weekend of sex with the Italian businessman after she auctioned her virginity online. But tax officials in Berlin regard the 18-year-old’s act as ‘nothing more than prostitution’. Prostitution is legal in Germany – but it is heavily taxed….One tax expert said: ‘Even if she was taxed as a purveyor of erotic moments, or whatever she wants to call what she did, she would have to pay tax on it. Prostitution is merely a means for the bureaucrats to pin her down for a claim. ‘She would have been better off keeping quiet about this strange transaction.’

Let this be a lesson to all you aspiring sluts out there. You can sell your V-card to some skeevey Eurotrash businessman, you can humiliate yourself in public and take years off your mother and father’s lives in the process, but you’ve got to declare every penny. Those government suits have nothing better to do than track you down so they can extract their pound of flesh while you try to earn an honest living as a purveyor of erotic moments. Don’t forget it was the pencil pushers who brought down every notorious criminal from Dillinger to Al Capone to Denny McLain. Still, you’ve got to feel bad for Alina. 50% is an outrageous amount. Even if she takes a deduction for rubbers, a boob job and cheap hotel rooms and whatnot, that’s still barely enough to live off of. It almost makes it not worth it to peddle your flesh in the first place.
