I can see why some women get depressed by certain men's responses here. Some seem so defensive about prostitution in theory that they refuse to look at prostitution in practice in most of the world, where the prostitutes are not in the profession of their own free will, but because they were captured or sold or otherwise coerced. That's a reality of prostitution that just takes all the fun out of it for some men. They'd much rather think about the elemental needs driving the consumer side of the commerce.
On the other side, you have people who would rather the subject of prostitution never rear its ugly head in a forum for progressives. I don't understand why not. It seems a ripe area to consider questions of freedom, capitalism and human rights.
