I think you misunderstand the dynamics of, for example, host clubs. Women don't generally go to hosts seeking primarily sex - they tend to go seeking fantasy love & engagement-based interactions. Articles like [1] shine a bit of light on it.
I'm genuinely having trouble following your logic on this issue - it seems fairly obvious that heterosexual males are highly desirous of sex with attractive women, which creates a power dynamic based on that desire.

- vorpalhex 5y agoFemale escorts often engage in fantasy and what is basically affirmation therapy for their clients. That doesn't mean men aren't seeking sex anymore than the alternative holds for women. Women do tend to engage in sex with hosts [1]. > it seems fairly obvious that heterosexual males are highly desirous of sex with attractive women, which creates a power dynamic based on that desire. You're affirming the consequent. If men desiring women creates a power dynamic, and if that power dynamic is why men desire women.. we have a logical issue. The power dynamic cannot be it's own origin. If we can show that the power dynamic exists in situations where women desire men - and I think this is both obvious and we have - then it clearly has some earlier origin. It is not the root cause.
