My guess is at a not-too-subtle way to point out the OP does not think it legitimate, nor that it should ever be treated as legitimate work.

Perhaps there is a reason that just about every human society since the paleolithic era has viewed prostitution as a job of ill-repute or sought to restrict it. It can't be a coincidence that they all arrived at the same conclusion.

Because a lot of humans in general tend to be pretty sexually frustrated.

I've considered taking money for sex, on the basis "bad sex is better than no sex" but, to be frank, the opportunity hardly ever arises, and when it does, getting in some guy's car or going around to his house, feels like way too much risk.
I really resist paying money for sex. I've never knowingly done it, though I have been hit up for money by people I never knew were in it for money. They did it so casually, it's clearly a form of "low dollar, de facto" prostitution like a de-romanticized form of "buy me dinner and be nice for a couple of hours, and I might let you have sex with me" de facto prostitution. It wasn't that horrible, really: once the (supposedly consensual) sex is in the past, and just a good memory, an exchange of money does not much sully it. However, there will be no further sex with that person. Once I know it's a form of prostitution, I couldn't do it.
I still don't have it straight in my head, but it seems basically wrong to have sex with someone who doesn't really want to, and probably wouldn't if I wasn't going to pay them. Yet I don't feel that sense of it being wrong in the situation where I know I want to have sex, and it would be them paying me. It remains to be seen if I would still feel that way after sex, when I see the money. Quite possibly I would refuse it just to make the other guy feel good.

On a more serious note, we should absolutely legalize prostitution. It'll be easier to regulate and stop illegal trafficking when prostitution is open.

Yes. And considering that their line of business has health implications, I also think they should be licensed.
