As women are completely useless creatures incapable of surviving on their own, marriage is either another form of prostitution or it is an act of charity. I think every single interaction between men and women are transactional therefore it is always a form of prostitution.

It's prostitution today because the woman chooses the man she will "marry" according to her requirements: money.
Historically it was a business deal where the family would give the woman to a successful man in order to propagate their bloodline.
It was literally the best thing for a woman since she secured the best husband she could get and was seriously invested in her husband and children since she had no other option of survival.
