A powerful man offers to help a woman's career in trade for sex. Is this okay of him if a) she likes deal & accepts, b) he only ever asks once, she declines, c) deal is indirect, giving her plausible deniability? Pick 1st answer you agree with:
Most jurisdictions that make prostitution legal also recognize that it is not a job that most people would find acceptable to take, so nobody should be coerced into it.

This is confused. Even if a minority find it unacceptable coercion is wrong... And still, this fails to explain why this logic only ends up banning Robin's scenario and not other offers that most people find unacceptable.

In Germany, you can be forced to take up any acceptable job or lose unemployment benefits. You can for instance be coerced into a subjectively degrading advertising job, but not into sex work of any kind. This reflects a cultural consensus. Do you think that is confused?
