I totally agree with you. I may have moral and ethical qualms with consenting, fair prostitution (no extorting pimps or companies), but there is little that can be done if no one is getting hurt and if there are no children involved. It's not like abortion, where you are harming innocent life. You are just getting paid for sex. It's, to me, the most animalistic thing we as humans need to deal with. We are animals, but we should really be able to focus on more than just making good cash or getting a good lay.

For some reason we're obsessed with the next dopamine stimulant. Humans love our rewards and Westerners live in a society where that is embraced. Instead of pushing for learning and yearning for more, it's just a hustle for the majority to get to the next "O" point.

It's definitely a big part of human psychology.
