Ok sure, now what about the people that weren't raped and just got into prostitution the same way a stripper decides that life is for them? Are they still victims?

A radical feminist (in my experience) will still say yes, effectively robbing these women of their own personal agency and shaming their choices.

That is an important distinction, and your comparison is watered down by ignoring it.
