Prostitution be on the rise in Oslo





















Prostitutes have become more brazen than ever in Norway's capital, with many aggressively peddling their wares on Oslo's main streets and around key tourist attractions. Politicians are quarreling over whether to finally make the trade illegal.

Prostitution currently remains legal in Norway, but sellers of sexual services traditionally have stuck to specific areas of downtown and let customers approach them

The ultra-feminist group Ottar argues that prostitution is an affront to all women and should be illegalized. In line with this thinking, they would like to shut down the Pro Senter, a center specializing on legal and social aid for prostitutes. It seems kind of backasswards to me to preclude prostitutes from getting help and possibly putting them in more harm just because someone feels that prostitution shouldn´t exist...
