Danish sex workers are offering free sex to COP15 in order to defend their industry.

Copenhagen Mayor Ritt Bjerregaard sent postcards to city hotels warning summit guests not to patronize Danish sex workers during the upcoming conference. Now, the prostitutes have struck back, offering free sex to anyone who produces one of the warnings.

Copenhagen's city council in conjunction with Lord Mayor Ritt Bjerregaard sent postcards out to 160 Copenhagen hotels urging COP15 guests and delegates to 'Be sustainable - don't buy sex'.

"Dear hotel owner, we would like to urge you not to arrange contacts between hotel guests and prostitutes," the approach to hotels says.

Now, Copenhagen prostitutes are up in arms, saying that the council has no business meddling in their affairs. They have now offered free sex to anyone who can produce one of the offending postcards and their COP15 identity card, according to the Web site avisen.dk.

Discrimination

According to the report, the move has been organized by the Sex Workers Interest Group (SIO).

"This is sheer discrimination. Ritt Bjerregaard is abusing her position as Lord Mayor in using her power to prevent us carrying out our perfectly legal job. I don't understand how she can be allowed to contact people in this way," SIO Spokeswoman Susanne Møller tells avisen.dk.

Møller adds that it is reprehensible and unfair that Copenhagen politicians have chosen to use the UN Climate Summit as a platform for a hetz against sex workers.

"But they've done it and we have to defend ourselves," Møller says.

I'm all for Prostitution. Quite frankly, I think its a valuable service, I see nothing wrong with it whatsoever. I think it should be legalized in the US. I'm tired of people pushing their moral values down our throats, because thats the only thing the people who don't like Prostitutes is all about, they think its morally wrong, for religious reasons or whatever.

I say its fine and hurting no one. Let the Prostitutes work. Let it be legal in this supposedly "free country". The drug laws need to be changed too, I think marijuana should be legelized.

Lots of issues that we need to deal with in a realisic fashion, really think about and decide whats important. So many laws are old and outdated, they need to be "upgraded" to logical standards.
