And each of the women who had the second place bid got a gift certificate. I can certainly see your perspective about the word "auction," but because it was a silent auction, it didn't feel like they were on the auction block.Reticulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05577343017332273507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5856183318248330085.post-80194834379866520292012-09-24T12:12:30.797-04:002012-09-24T12:12:30.797-04:00I'm so glad you wrote about this.

I silently (until now) boycotted the event because the whole idea of buying and selling people, even all in good fun and for a great cause, would be too awful for me. I wouldn't be able to stop thinking of the men, women and children who are bought and sold in my own city, possibly even next door to me, for much less positive and empowering purposes. <br /><br />That said, it sounds like they pulled this off as a fantastic event that was handled with a lot of class. At least by the guys and the promoters. Ria Megninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14067879850447660284noreply@blogger.com
