I've always thought that was peculiar, and I have to disagree with not only you but the law banning prostition.

If you pay a girl to "make a movie" with you, having sex.. it's pornographic, and it's entirely legal.

Let's break down the ingredients:

Money changed hands (business agreement).
Woman had sex with you, for that money.
Video was sold, likely at a profit (more money made).

And yet, if you meet a girl on a streetcorner (or hell, a bar for that matter) who offers to engage in sex with you for money, it's illegal.

The ONLY difference between the two situations is a video camera. It makes me think that you should be able to avoid police stings for prostitution simply by announcing that you've brought a video camera, and that you are paying for the video, not the sex. Bullshit technicalities on human behavior never work.
