An escort's job is to provide general services that are not sexual; you're probably thinking of a prostitute, you hire them for sex. Oh, and if a woman is no longer interested in having sex with her husband but wants the financial stability... gee, how many episodes of CSI have I seen about that one?!

Forcing someone to have sex is different than merely asking them several times.
What are these "general services" you refer to? Because sexual activity is what people are expecting when they hire an escort. Few women call themselves "prostitutes" for legal and social reasons. It is essentially the derogatory term while escort is the euphemistic one. The "payment for their time" thing is merely for plausible deniability in case of a sting. There exists very little demand for platonic escort.
There's probably at least 15 different "brick and mortar brothels" in your very own town operating under the guise of an "asian massage parlor". These are often in random unassuming shopping centers and often in decent areas. I've always found it crazy how blatant it actually is and how it goes hidden in plain sight and the average person doesn't even notice it.. I know of a few places in my own town where I could just walk in any time, pay a "tip" and have sex with a random woman. Like escorts, they operate under the principle of plausible deniability.
There are the street walkers too and maybe someone would call them prostitutes, but they are essentially the same thing as an escort, they just advertise in a different way.
In any case, seeing an escort/"prostitute" for sex is not coercion or rape.
