Studies show that rapists are not, in general, men who can't get sex another way, but rather men who want to exert power over women.
No, they don't.
This is not and cannot be the result of any study.
This is just baseless feminist dogma.
You have been lying all over this thread. Stop lying.
Not necessarily. Some producers star in their own porn videos. So they pay someone to have sex with them. Still 100% legal.
The only difference is the existence of a camera. It's kind of insane.
What are the moral implications of buying a Roomba from Amazon now?
Same thing.
We're not talking about rape here. So that's a non-sequitur.
You're moving goalposts.
All decisions are made in the face of economic coercion, because every decision is made to cater to one's reward function.
What you are saying is absolute nonsense in light of decision theory.
Everything in the universe is impacted by everything else that happens.
That's a useless tautology.
Well, it's certainly truer for prostitution than it is for conventional relationships. Use fuzzy logic to process the truth here.

False.
The actual reality is that, when adjusted for skill and seniority, women make just as much as men.
This is one of the most malicious feminist lies out there, eclipsed only by the 1 in 3/4/5 rape lie.
There is never a balance of power between the employer and the employee.
If there were, the employee wouldn't have to work for the employer, since he'd have just as much money and influence in the first place.
Your argument condemns all employment.
If each instance of the supposed crime is victimless, where do the supposed victims come from?
