Rome's mayor is considering a "red light" district to shield prostitutes from exploitation. Prostitution is legal in Italy, and its practitioners are a common sight along several streets in Rome and many other Italian cities. City officials want to designate certain streets for prostitutes.

EUR official says designated streets will help ensure prostitutes aren't put there by traffickers. Many women leave homes in Africa and Eastern Europe for Italy after promises of work like waitressing, but instead are forced into prostitution by trafficking rackets.  Exploitation of prostitution is illegal. 

The city would provide psychological support and health care to prostitutes on the designated streets. Clients of prostitutes working on non-designated streets would risk fines.

Paolo Lampariello said there are so many prostitutes on the streets that "women can't enter their homes without being mistaken for prostitutes. That is a compliment to the pro. as they look more wife-y type.  Just a thought.
