    Default Which job is easiest to keep secret: stripping, webcamming, or escorting?

    I want to work in the adult industry, but I am a single mother of boys and wouldn't want them to find out. Also, I live in a religious community and would get excommunicated if descovered. Which type of adult work would be easiest to keep secret: stripping, webcam modeling, or escorting?

    If you're a single mother, then people expect you to date, right? So you'd be able to get away with leaving your home in full makeup and returning late at night.

    The viability of stripping depends partly on the club options in your town. Your club should be at least a 30 minute+ drive away (to avoid being discovered), and even then, you're running the risk that someone from your community might stop in. We all run this risk, technically, but the seriousness of the risk will depend on how well-known you are in your community, how many clubs exist in your city (one club that everyone goes to? or twenty club options dispersed throughout the city?), and how disguised you are at work. If you aren't well-known in your community, you live in a bigger city, there are ten clubs in your city, and you look dramatically different with your hair / makeup done, then you're probably safe.

    There are ways to webcam, quietly, after your boys go to sleep for the night...but I wouldn't say that's a very lucrative option compared to dancing / escorting. It seems like the most successful camgirls are the ones who have the time and space to really dedicate themselves to the job. It could make for some side-income though (remember, with webcamming you'll need to claim all of your money on your taxes).

    Obviously, if you're going to start escorting, you're running the risk of being caught by LE (more likely because you're new to the industry) or setting up a date with someone who could recognize you. The money could be good, but it's a high-risk job (unless you're a professional like many of the ladies on SW) that could have serious consequences. Again, I'm saying this because you're a complete newb to the sex industry, so escorting is a higher-risk job for you (as compared to, say, a dancer who's been working for ten years and is looking to get into escorting). The Other Work section on here will give you some incredible advice on escorting in a country where it hasn't been decriminalized.

    Just my thoughts...

    Stripping would probably be easiest. You could keep a regular schedule so it just looks like you're going to any other job. If someone you know comes into the club, you can easily hide away in the back or avoid them until they leave. They never need to see you there at all. It might also help if you went to the next town or two over, just to further minimize the chance of bumping into anyone you know. Plus, heels along do wonders for changing your appearance. If people are used to seeing you fully clothed and standing at a whopping 5'4 or what not, they probably won't be thinking of you when they see an almost 6' amazon walk by in a thong. Makeup and wigs are good tools to utilize, too. Plus, most clubs don't allow picture taking, so you don't need to worry as much about someone searching for your face on the internet as much as you would with something like camming, where you voluntarily put your face and naked body up on the web yourself. All in all, stripping is very forgiving when it comes to matters like that. Background checks from potential future employers are another thing entirely -- there's always a paper trail, for anything. But when it comes to hiding your alternative career in the adult industry from community members and children, striping might be the best bet.

    Thanks so much for the feedback! Extreemly helpful. Luckily escorting is legal in the country I live in, but still wouldn't want to get found out. X

    Stripping if you can work in a club an hour from where you live. With escorting, you may be putting your picture online for ads and with webcam, it is not anonymous at all. You will be recorded and posted on tube sites. It's definitely the most intrusive and the least money.

    Ever wonder where the church hat money goes? To the strippers from creepy ass priests lol If you buy at all but it's still against their code to look and they still pay to get in.

    I have experience in Fetishes, Cam, and Dance.


    Luckily you can really mix all three if your site allows you to promote what club you'll be at but that's high risk because it's the internet and you never know who is online.

    Everyone watches porn and cams, even me every now and again. If someone sees you on cam then they 1. Have to admit they sinned by looking at porn and 2. It was yours, so now they are super screwed. You can keep your face hidden on cam if you want though and it's easy to wear a wig but make sure no one finds it since you'll probably be camming from home. Make a secret profile and don't say shit to anyone. Cam is great but it takes time so think 9-15 hours a day to get shit going. If you don't have that time then even just 1-3 hours on a few chosen days AT THE SAME TIME every week, will help you get regulars. I should take my own advice since I've been spoiled from 4 years of dancing so I'm still curating my consistency.

    Dancing- dood, doooooood, there's good money but it's 1:1 so you have to handle physical contact. With that being said you'll be able to make cash under the table. I'd hide tips from the club. Try to overcharge and get paid upfront. Hide the extra cash from that dance and only show them what you know they marked down if they track your dances. Keep your money on you at all times so you don't get your shit stolen from your locker (yeah dude girls bust those open sometimes when things get hard.) You'll lose weight if that's what you're looking to do and I think even a starting stripper in a slower club can look at going home with atleast $100 every night. I averaged at $150 on a slower night and $800 take home (was being overcharged by the club but I would have had 1k otherwise) on a good night. That shit's yours to keep. Be careful with people trying to take your stripper purse and ALWAYS get an walk out to your car so that no one mugs you walking out. You never know who wants their money back or what girl/staff/street peeps need your cash. You can also promote your cam site if you're going to do both. This works great for people who are not locals! -oh yeah, don't turn your back unless you're sure the lap dancee is sane.

    You can really mix fetish work with cam, escorting, stripping, or whatever else you choose to do in the industry. Be wise about your situations though, pay attention if something doesn't seem right. I REPEAT, PAY ATTENTION IF SOMETHING DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT.

    I don't know much about escorting or webcamming but in terms of remaining anonymous at a strip club, I think you would be OK in a city like London. There's loads of clubs there and it's a massive city so you don't have to worry too much about being spotted. There's always the chance but its a far less chance than working in a small town with only one club.

    From what I've heard, strip-club earnings in London would be on par with camming, especially for a newbie (as opposed to in the U.S., where generally stripping is much more lucrative for many reasons).

    I would say stripping or escorting. With camming your face is permanently on the internet and in my own personal experience, pays far less than stripping and escorting. With stripping you can hide in the dressing room if you see someone you know, but there's a chance they might see you before you see them. With escorting, you don't have to post your face on your ad and can screen before you see the client. If you screen well, you should know exactly who you are seeing beforehand, but obviously it's not fail proof. But since you are brand new to the sex industry, I would say stripping first and maybe move onto escorting later.
