"purchasing sex from someone is not principally different from raping them."

One involves getting permission, the other doesn't.

The two are different.

First of all, that depends on how consensual their prostitution is.

Secondly, my point was that there is no difference in spirit. You're making someone (most likely a rape survivor who doesn't know better) have sex with you who almost certainly wouldn't otherwise, and mind you strictly on their terms at that. If the other person has to dissociate in order to weather the experience, clearly they are miserable. That's not what sex is supposed to be like.

What do you mean by "no difference in spirit"? You're not forcing someone to have sex with you just because you offer to spend money for it. In your view sex workers seem to have absolutely no agency over their decicions. You're loading your arguments with heavy emotional wight(likely a rape survivor) but are you aware that our proposal would be a major infringement on the right of self determination?

I mean why shouldn't a women, who doesn't rely on sex work to make a living, decide to sell sex with her for money?
