Ok this one seems promising, I like that the mc is already out so we don't have to deal with the typical "but we're both girls!"/"can two women really fall in love" nonsense that is so common in gl stories. I was also relieved at the end that the girl wasn't one of her students or anything gross like that whew.
Also lol 404 men not found?

Ooga

Can't wait to see how this unfolds! There's a lot to love here, but probably my favorite part was the students being so kind and concerned for her.

She seriously needs to immediately explain her situation so the other woman doesn't just think she's a perverted creep.

I'm genuinely wondering why are there so many mangas about lesbian prostitution, it can't be such a common practice can it? Maybe it's a case of mangakas copying each other to death?

I doubt it's that many as a proportion of yuri. Yuri is hardly representative of reality. And it's a fun setup with various story potentials.

I've been following the genre for a while now, and I think this trend has really picked up around 2020, with Asumi-chan being a big trend setter. There have been standout works long before that, like Shuninta's Not for Sale, but the sheer volume has grown a lot in the 2020s. I cannot prove a definitive link, but I also believe Nagata Kabi's debut in 2016 has broken a lot of walls around this topic (among others), too.

As for why, I think it doesn't have a single cause. What I can say is that 20 years ago, School life often seemed like the only major setting in the yuri genre, and it makes sense that as the audience who liked that back then grew older, they'd want more yuri featuring grown-ups. Hence the contemporaneous growth of Office lady yuri and, to a lesser degree, Idol yuri.

Getting into more speculative topics, while we in the West tend to focus on sexuality and romance, yuri as a genre has always had a strong undercurrent of female solidarity and empowerment, and I have read arguments that the latter have been the entire point from the start. The so-called "oldest profession", meanwhile, has always been a predominantly patriarchal institute, so reclaiming it entirely for women, if only in romance fiction, would align with the genre's origins and overall trajectory.
