TIFU going to a strip club in Paris

Last week I was on a trip in Paris and on my last night I went to a strip club near my hotel near the Champs Elysee (Whisper Club) and I bought a nude private dance. I’ve only ever been to clubs in the US a handful of times. During the dance, which was about 10 minutes, the dancer sat on my lap, grinded on me, touched me with her body, etc. - it was honestly more contact than I expected, and she was not wearing bottoms. She also let me touch her waist and legs a bit seemingly without any issue and initiated some touching of her by guiding my hands at a couple points. I remained fully clothed of course, though the dancer did unbutton one button on my over shirt at one point.

I didn’t realize at the time, but now that I am home I see that contact dances and touching in Paris may not actually be allowed by laws - I can’t find that answer for sure, but I didn’t know if this fell under the sex solicitation rules. Now I am worried that I had broken a law in a different country or something without realizing it and that it might have some kind of repercussions someday, somehow. - like there being a warrant in a database somehow that would come up if I used a passport to go to the country again, or if the dancer later accused me of something (the club scanned my ID and credit card before the dance, which I assumed was just for verification, the place seemed pretty professional and generally upscale).

I am back in the US now but feeling uneasy about it all. Obviously I didn’t intend to do anything wrong - I was just trying to explore a bit of a novel experience in Paris while on vacation for fun. The dancer seemed friendly, she didn’t seem upset in any way in the moment (she of course tried to sell me more songs and actually told me she liked for all the customers she had to have a good time and that she liked the dances to not feel robotic), and the dance at the time seemed uneventful for the most part. I’m sure she and others there did dozens more dances like it that night. I guess I just feel uneasy now knowing that it might not really have been “allowed” or even technically legal what happened. I usually try to follow rules by the book in my life and figured that at a seemingly legitimate club in a popular tourist area there, there wouldn’t be an issue. It’s getting the best of my anxiety now and I feel regretful.

Tl;dr I went to a strip club in Paris, had a lap dance, and now am worried there could be repercussions somehow.

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
