What's the conventional wisdom favoring outcall vs. incall?  Is one "safer" than the other?  More secure?

If you are using an agency, or AMP, and you are worried about LE activity, you could be busted whether you have the lady come to you, or you go to the incall location. I dont believe either one is necessarily safer than the other. I think well reviewed independent providers are the safest bet, irrespective of outcall or incall. Do your homework, find a well reviewed lady and you will be as safe as can be expected

It virtually eliminates the prospect of a sting. LE likes to play on their own court when having a sting.

Do not use your home however, always get a hotel room.

Unfortunately, that makes the hobby a lot more expensive.

Unless you are married, of course. Personally, I prefer outcall, nice to stay home and have her come to me. Some will say never let a provider know where you live, but I think that only applies if you deal with whacko's, I have never had a problem with it.

Really depends upon your situation - if you are married, definitely go for the incall of the lady.
Single, own apartment... still consider incall of the lady if well reviewed... outcall is fine also.
Both have their own unique insecurities.
