Professors and academics writing in an open letter believe that indoor prostitution should not be banned as R.I. state legislators have proposed because it is less likely that "sex workers" who operate behind closed doors are abused physically or use drugs. Apparently, research shows that indoor prostitutes are older on the whole and less likely to be assaulted or raped, as compared with outdoor counterparts. R.I. legislators who sponsored the bill seemed unswayed by the letter and are pushing for a vote banning the legality of indoor prostitution in September 2009.
