Melanie Reid Biography
- Title:
- Journalist
- Position:
- Pro to the question "Should Prostitution Be Legal?"
- Reasoning:
-
“There is no doubt that deadly violence against sex workers is a recurring social pattern. Nor is there any doubt that serial killers know sex workers are afraid to seek protection from police; or that the public believe violence is part of a prostitute’s job description. Until prostitution is legalized, these women will continue to toil down on the ocean floor, miles away from the light, in constant fear of predators.”
