Margo St James Task Force on Prostitution.
COYOTE (Call Off Your Old Tired Ethics) is an American sex workers' rights organization, whose goals include decriminalization (as opposed to the legalization) of prostitution, pimping and pandering, as well as the elimination of social stigma concerning sex work as an occupation.
COYOTE was founded in San Francisco in 1973 by Margo St. James, a feminist and former sex worker, along with Jennifer James, a Seattle-based professor of anthropology.
