What really stands out here is prostitution. It's the only item on the list that punishes a consensual agreement between two adults. An agreement that doesn't affect anyone else in any meaningful way.

Prostitution isn't always "wholly" consensual; some women are forced into the profession.

When it's not consensual, it's a different crime and a wholly different matter in my view.

I'm betting there's whole lot of people who don't consider their jobs entirely "consensual".
If you're referring to the use or threat of force, that's a completely different crime.

Clearly, marking those same women as felons is the solution.
