For the record I'm not ok with prostitution but my reasons are only that young girls are often involved before they reach an age to make a mature decision on the matter. And that it spreads disease.

Morally, I believe there are so many forms of legal employment which are so morally degrading to both men and women, women especially actually. They usually involve some action about which most people would say "I'd never do that for money." In the case of prostitution, it's a form of sex.
Degradation means it causes humiliation and a loss of self-esteem. Are Sports Illustrated swimsuit models sexually degraded? If they are, why would anyone want to be one? But there is no shortage of women who strive to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated in a swimsuit. Does that mean models must have low self esteem because they allow their bodies to used to sell magazines or clothes?
