How well it works is going to depend on what type of man usually visits a prostitute.  I would think factors that would make a difference are:

• Do they have wives and children?
• Do their friends think visiting a prostitute is ok, cool, terrible, brave, fun, …
• Do they tell their family and friends that they visit prostitutes?  Don’t assume they don’t!
• Would it affect their employment at all?
• Do their friends, family, and employers have easy internet access?
• Do they have easy internet access?
