Dear Dr. How does one enter that profession? I have no experience at all in the field of commercial sex work or in being a dominatrix, but I think I could be good at it. Is there a professional organization or group I can contact to break into that field? People with whom I can talk to find out the pluses and minuses of being a dominatrix? Dommes rarely provide anything that looks like legally defined sex, though once in a while vice cops fail to make that distinction.
In some parts of the country, though not much around here, professional domination is just about as legally problematic as prostitution. But none of this answers your question. Join an SM organization or two. In the Bay Area there are many alternatives, but two that regularly provide education to their members are the Society of Janus www.
Network at both these places; each will have some professional dommes among its membership. Attend classes regularly at QSM www. When you meet one whose perspective you like, ask whether she would be willing to consult with you. The latter also has classes, as do Good Vibes and Mr. S Leathers more of a gay male focus there, but still useful info. Here, the above actions constitute a lifelong learning program for professionals and everybody else.
And by the way, nearly all gals look really foxy in latex catsuits. Good luck.
