Some women want to be prostitutes, because they are psychopathic or just too lazy for normal work. The punter can always claim he hooked up with a gal, and then he gave her some money as a charity.
Many houses of prostitution are disguised as massage parlors. Some will quote a certain fee for the service, but that is just to get in the door. The customer is then given all the "upselling" lines for various "extras". But I believe it should be up to the individual and not the government to regulate. If we refuse to pay then they would eventually disappear. For upscale ladies who use the term "escorts", it is more of a companionship agreement of which sex is only a small portion of it if indeed it does occur. I would like to see places such as brothels that do good screening be at the very least decriminalized. But not to have it flourish all over the streets. Just keep in mind that its prohibition hasn't worked any more than it did a century ago with liquor.
