Let's face it, if prodoms do not call themselves sex workers, someone else will. There is not denying it is adult industry work. But, here is the thing, mainstream American doesn't care if it is straight up prostitution or, not. A pro dom's work commonly includes naked men, bondage, strap on, gs, inflicting pain, cross dressing, ect. In the eyes of a judgemental or, narrow minded person, that is worse that traditional sex in exchange for money. This attitude is even clear with visa and, web site standards. It is easier to display 18 year old girls having sex with multiple partners than it is a middle aged, fully dressed woman whipping a man.
