Friends are advising I should my virginity to a prostitute , and I don't want to.

I'm 27M , I'll be 28 this year and my friends were advising to lose my virginity to a SW. I personally couldn't do it because I wouldn't feel comfortable and most SW are being trafficked in some way. But they said it will help me gain confidence and have higher chances with meeting other women.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea? Any advice?
