Nah, you can't really win your case on that point alone.
Prostitution exists because there's a huge demand (mainly by men) to have companionship centred around the exchange of sexual services. And there's a lot of broke people, in debt or in a, ahem, sticky situation, etc, etc. the reasons are endless, who are 1)willing or 2)available/alive, to provide this service. (I understand that not everyone is in the biz voluntarily)
Most men I met in that business wanted to kiss, which is far more intimate to me than explicit sex.
I've had men who just wanted to talk (with a little sth sth).
I've had men with severe scarring, with paraplegia, in depression over their breakup, divorce, etc., who wanted sex but also to feel sexy themselves. Most men wanted to hug me. I've had men cry. I've had men be afraid of me. I've had men be silly and goofy with me. I've had super serious and scary men. Many men (70%) told me about their day, complain about their bosses, co-workers, friends, family, etc.
I mean, we all knew what their main reason for being there was, but on the way, with some men there seemed to be some kind of affection for me, even if it was very transparent, transitory, and dependent on me being cute. I don't think this was love, because I don't think they were capable of that.
So while these men told me they loved me (and a dozen others, lol): they didn't, of course, know "us" or "me": So what I'm trying to say is: even some men who see hookers can also confuse "love" and sex too. Maybe it's just that men are trained to seem more light-hearted and detached about sex more easily, the whole, spread-the-seed around spiel. And it is easier to think that one just wants to bust a nut then to think "I feel x I want to feel better than x, and I want to be with someone else. I want company". Because that indicates a need for others, which many interpret as vulnerability, or weakness.
