I believe that sexual harassment is also called extortion. And that prostitution is simply one person seeling something (supply) to one who wants to buy it (demand).

are comparable in that one party uses their advantage to obtain what they want from the other party. Also, when those non-law-abiding people pay for sex; they are purchasing it from another non-law-abiding person whom is selling it.
I think this is becoming a "which came first, the chicken or the egg" discussions; WT. This is why I make no distinction other than both parties should be prosecuted; because both parties broke the law!

One uses threats and intimidation and the other is providing a service. And this time Spitzer is being prosecuted, but generally it is the prostitute who is prosecuted or fined.

And Gary, you are beyond reason or logic, thank you. As I said, extortion and threats are not the same as selling a service.
What choice have most women in previous times had but to see men as a protector and provider when she went from being property of her father to the property of her husband. She couldn't support herslf or her kids on her own, because that is how the system was set up. If you can't find that type of history on your own, you couldn't possibly be a bright as you think you are.
