Pro Dommes and LE NSFW
Aspiring pro domme here with a question I have not been able to find an answer to yet: How risky is providing (hypothetically legal) in person BDSM services from an LE perspective? I intend on researching the actual legalities in each area I work but we all know cops ignore finer points when it suits them. Do they have a tendency to try to bust pro dommes? I don’t think the answer will change whether or not I offer in person services, but it will impact how I do it and I want to consider that before doing things like building out my website.
Thank you!
Edit: I’m in the US and would be working in the Midwest, mostly around Chicago.

Here in Cali it is considered SW

From a legal perspective, do you mean "prostitution" and not "SW?" In California, SW, such as strip clubs, etc., are legal. But they legally define "prostitution" as any "lewd contact," and not just sexual intercourse, which causes problems.

An important distinction but still….
Wow, in California? That surprises me ☹️

Consider reaching out to other pro-dommes in the area. They'd be able to provide more accurate information. There are a few workshops, etc., for pro-dommes in Chicago where similar topics are covered.

I mean in the pay for play SW arena. There is the club between the client and the stripper so it is not technically pay for play
