Escort Services providers charge men $400 to much more per hour mostly for intimate services. Unlike streetwalkers almost none of Escort Service providers are exploited, and every country has law against exploiting sex workers. Escort Services provide enormous physical and emotional benefit for lonely men. Most men would feel embarrassed to support decriminalization of Escort Services for that reason, but why?
Unfortunately in some countries, buying sex and in some cases selling sex is illegal. In most US states, both acts are illegal since mid 20th century. In Sweden since 1999, South Korea since 2004, Norway since 2009, Iceland since 2009, North Ireland and Canada since 2014, and France since 2016 buying sex is illegal. In all formerly Socialist countries both selling and buying sex was illegal during most of Communist reign. In Russia, it was outlawed in 1918 and the law was "forgotten" in 1980s. In China it was outlawed in 1949, and the law was "forgotten" in 2000s.
In USA the ban on selling and buying sex is diligently enforced. Even though #notallpolicedepartments reported their data to FBI, for the districts reporting in 2012, 25,000 providers and 11,000 customers have been arrested. According to a 2006 MSNBC article "A consumer guide to prostitutes is a click away", David R. Elms has set up an Escort Service review site which in fact helps customers avoid Law Enforcement. By 2006, they were not able to prosecute him.
Maybe someday many states will legalize Escort Services.
