AP Photo GlobalPost s Mildrade Cherfils examines a French proposal to reopen brothels after more than 60 years.PARIS -- A French lawmaker wants to reopen brothels, outlawed in France since 1946, in order to protect prostitutes from predatory pimps and exploitation. But the sex workers say no thanks.

Criminalizing activities around prostitution, which itself is legal for anyone over 18, sent workers underground to massage parlors and bars, but also away from the city centers, to peripheral areas, the woods and the Internet. It rendered exercising this profession much more dangerous since workers found themselves isolated, Mossuz-Lavau said.Almost seven years to the day that parliament adopted that law in March 2003, Chantal Brunel, a member of Sarkozy s UMP party who had voted for it, announced she wants to change the government s response to prosti stanley thermosflasche tution.
