Who knew the TV show Satisfaction was such a force for good:
Kestie Morassi visited brothels before playing Natalie and says talking to prostitutes and madams changed her outlook on the industry.
"The one thing that struck me the most was the dignity the girls had and, in a weird way, the dedication they had to doing a good job," she says.
"It was fascinating how many of them were carers - nurses or mothers - outside the brothels."
"There were a few where you felt sad for them - there was a sadness in their eyes - but when I started to talk to them they said they feel like they are doing a community service. These girls need to be there, the industry needs to be there, and it's a really hard job."

An idea: madams and hookers should take over ABC Learning.
I would have gone with St Iffaction.
