No one asks Abigail the conditions of her auction, because any sane adult knows that a child auctioning off their virginity is absurd and are not going to entertain it. A better question is, why did no one send her to a therapist after this obvious cry for attention?

It’s interesting in the book (which has a lot more tongue in cheek humour than the show), Abigail is often mocked by he author for her efforts. For example, on her auction site she misspells ‘privilege’ and plagiarises copy from Amnesty’s website without their consent, and lines about it include “but you’re not raising awareness! You’re raising awareness of yourself!” and “the egocentricity of the child, as if international organisations were sitting around twiddling their thumbs while little Abigail Mackenzie on the Pirriwee Peninsula was the only one taking decisive action.” (Of course I’d add or change it to sex worker organisations…)

Anyway I think a bit of the humour around her crusade was lost in the show.

Very thorough critique of the show!
