How do you ensure that people actually use these "Safe Work Environments"? I think the vast majority of prostitutes would prefer not to be in their current profession if drug addictions, abuse or worse situations hadn't forced them into it. If they actually thought they had a choice, why not choose a safer job like working in a restaurant. I don't buy the argument that they enjoy what they do.

Natural? The physical act yes. But you're removing that act from the context in which it normally takes place. Given that the vast majority of people in society do not sell their bodies for sex, I don't see how you can call it natural in any way.
