"...the former have victims..."

I think you're attempting to clear the air on the definitions a bit--but be careful. Many have claimed that prostitution is a "victimless" crime.

There are some immoralities which APPEAR to be victimless.

In it's purest form, it is victimless. Since it's an illegal business, there's a lot of extortion of the participants, which is what turns them into victims.
