Supermodel Gisele Bundchen says she supports both Lima and Sursara's personal beliefs, but that she did not have the same desire. Stirring controversy in 2005 when she generalized chastity and accused the Vatican of being irresponsible, Bundchen revealed to the Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper, "Today no one is a virgin when they get married ... show me someone who's a virgin."
Bundchen is not the first to second guess the choice. When news of Lima's virginity hit the Internet, journalists everywhere doubted her sincerity, suggesting the statement was an easy way of gaining support for her career. For Sursara, the personal moral is very real.
“I worry sometimes what people may think about it, what they might think of me because of it. I am not a prude, I'm not ashamed of myself, my body or of sex... I think it's natural and healthy to be sexual and be affectionate. I think there is more to a relationship than sleeping together but realize that making love is a very big part of any serious and committed relationship - but I am not physically having sex until I am married."
For now, for 20-year-old Sursara, the debate "just rages on behind me." The blue-eyed brunette says, "People will always have an opinion about you and what you believe. I respect other people's sexual values and I hope that in return, they can respect mine."
