Italian minister for equal opportunity Mara Cafagna may once have worked as a topless model, but that doesn't mean she believes that all sex work is okay. Cafagna has come under fire from prostitutes' rights groups for condemning women who "sell their bodies" and backing legislation that criminalizes street prostitution and introduces fines for both sex workers and their clients.
