Prostitution, Yes or no?

I think we all "know" what prostitution is, or do we? You are in a hotel and go to the bar, see a hooker and hire her for sex, prostitution. You are in a hotel and go to the bar, see a woman, buy her a drink, take her to dinner, then to your room and have sex, not prostitution.
So where is the line crossed? Asking? Talking about it? Cash instead of drinks and a dinner? Someone knowing her occupation? Has to be something...

Gratuities not obliging the recipient to repay with sexual favors = not prostitution, but consensual activity
So you are saying what is tendered makes the difference? I think we both know that when a man takes a woman out, sex is most always an expectation of his.
The second "happening" was with a really hot chick that I've been wanting to f***. She knew we were at that point in our dancer-PL relationship, and started our session with, "I'll let you stick it in for $200."
Based on the previous discussion here, it's pretty obvious that the second event was prostitution (I hate that term.....), but would the first one be considered pros.... or a tip for really great dances??
Here in Florida it means the giving or receiving of the body for sexual activity for hire, but excludes spouses and also sexual activity done for bona fide medical purposes.
In Alaska, prostitution is engaging in or agreeing or offering to engage in sexual conduct in return for a fee; or offering a fee in return for sexual conduct. So don't offer the spouse a fee to engage in sexual conduct.
BTW, when I hire a prostitute her engaging in sexual activity isn't required. We can discuss politics or sports or just watch the movie channel. Agreeing to X dollars for a specified sexual activity, excluding dances, leaves me cold. Funny thing is there supposedly are other customers who aren't focused on the sex act or sexual activity. My focus? Time (OTC, only). I'm paying for her time. It is the rare prostitute, ime, who'd rather spend the time talking or sitting in silence rather than engaging in sexual activity---not because they love sexual activity, but as one dancer put it talking is more work. :)
One of the former posters here said she made good money just for ordinary conversation. Doesn't surprise me at all.
Actually, I often see the marriage/SO comparison made as a defense of whoremongering. I think it only makes the case for mongering sound weak. If you enjoy whores, I don't see any need to justify it.
Most of the marriages/SO relationships that I see are very much like prostitution. Of course, those marriages are a mess. Perhaps other people see lots of happy marriages. I see the wife trading sexual favors for cash or services and the husband looking for a better sex deal from a co-worker, prostitute, etc. Another way the marriages are like prostitution is the ignored wife. Just as the pimp pretty much makes his hoes work for his sexual attention seems like many husbands put their wives on the back burner---begging for sex. Prostitution just seems faster paced and more honest. Please remember, the relationships that I see are by and large a complete mess and that might be just a reflection of the people that I know.
No, it's not so much "what is tendered" as the "directness" of the exchange. If you give a gal a present explicitly in exchange for a negotiated sex act, that is prostitution. But if you pay your girlfriend's phone bill (or even hand her the cash to pay that bill), when you two subsequently have sex, that does not equal prostitution.
Otherwise, all sex would be potentially labeled prostitution. That is as ridiculous as the hardcore-feminist claim "all sex is rape."
A woman can love sex more than the man and still see it as primary bargaining tool. Equating prostitution with marriage doesn't, imo, mean "all sex is prostitution." Or, a woman can love sex and not use it to her negotiating advantage----much rarer, imo.
Another HUGE myth: All prostitutes hate or dislike sex with their customers. That may be the norm, but some prostitutes happen to love sex whether you're paying or not.
That said, how does one measure or even define "directness"?

Your wife offers pussy in exchange for your mowing the lawn. In Florida that's not consider prostitution because she's your wife. Your neighbor's wife offers pussy in exchange for a mowed lawn and now we've got a crime wave.
With some religions you can marry a woman for 15 minutes and since she is your wife, money for sex isn't considered prostitution. At least marriage is good for something.
If you fuck someone you don't want to fuck, it's prostitution.
Really? So, now a mercy fuck is prostitution . . . that is so twisted. :) Or, maybe it is you fuck someone for profit who you don't want to fuck, it is prostitution. And, what is the deal when the woman fucks a man for money, but she'd be happy to do it for free?
I don't see how that could be illegal, unless there is a law against "escorts", or some other nutty local law..
