SEX SHOP-OWNING STUDENT BLAZING A TRAIL IN BULGARIA



BLAGOEVGRAD, Bulgaria (Wireless Flash) – A 25-year-old university student is blazing a trail for sex toys in Bulgaria. American University in Bulgaria business student Simo Atanasov owns one of the country’s only sex shops, where he peddles porno tapes, vibrators and other sexy products to locals. Simo says there are only eight other X-rated toy stores in Bulgaria and he often gets orders from nearby Macedonia, which has no sex shops at all. Atanasov has been especially busy lately because, for many Bulgarians, Christmas is the only time of the year they can afford to spend money on luxury items like sex toys. He admits he’s not getting rich from his sex shop, but he’s doing well enough for a man who hasn’t even gotten his college degree. In his words, “My parents are very proud of me.”
