I don't agree. I think first that if a married man or woman would be willing to pay for sex that they would also have no issue with going to a bar to pick up a stranger to have sex with. Second, I think there are couples out there that have no issue with their spouse going to a prostitute.
Every time this argument comes up, all I can think about is "The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas". Especially the part where they are interviewing the townpeople on the news, and the old lady says that she considered it a blessing for her husband, when he was alive, to go there. It gave her a break. I know its just a movie, but I can definitely see some people feeling this way.
Citing your first sentence, thus is why I said legalizing prostitution would only increase the divorce rates because there is no fear of being caught because monies were exchanged for sex. Difference between picking someone up at a bar and a prostitute is quite often most women outright just dont perform sexual acts for youe pleasure. Also, soliticing prostitution is anonymous whereas bar pickups is a social environment, and if you are willing to commit infidelity you are exposimg yourself.
My point is that legalizing prostitution will lead to an increase in infidelity and divorce.
