Bad news for the Australian fellow who won the right to be the first to put his penis inside Natalie Dylan for $3.8 million. Seems his wife doesn't think it's as good an idea as he does and has made him back out on the deal. He's getting his deposit back.

About the documentary
[HOW TO LOSE YOUR VIRGINITY is the new documentary by Therese Shechter, director of the award-winning and provocative I WAS A TEENAGE FEMINIST.]
The US government has spent 1.5 billion dollars promoting it. It has fetched tens of thousands of dollars at auction. And 50 years after the sexual revolution, it continues to define a young woman’s morality and self-worth.
Female virginity has been ‘restored’ through surgery, fetishized by porn, verified by doctors and commoditized by popular culture. Despite all this, there is no one definition of how it’s lost (ask any lesbian).
Using her own path out of 'virginity' to guide the narrative, filmmaker Therese Shechter creates a far-reaching dialogue with women along the sexuality spectrum. Layering verite, interviews and vintage sex-ed films with candid self-reflection and wry narration, How to Lose Your Virginity reveals the myths, dogma and misconceptions behind this so-called precious gift to explore why female virginity is still so valued in our otherwise hyper-sexualized society.
In a culture where “Be sexy, but don’t have sex” is the overwhelming message to young women, the film asks: Does virginity exist, or is it a social construct created to keep girls in line?
