Adult Work in 2025: Safety, Legal Risks, and Real Strategies for Moscow, Dubai, and Munich
When you're doing adult work, independent sex work conducted through digital platforms and personal networks, often as a primary source of income. Also known as escort work, it’s not a lifestyle choice for most—it’s a survival strategy shaped by law, money, and risk. In 2025, the game has changed. What worked last year might get you arrested, banned, or exploited today. This isn’t about romance or fantasy. It’s about who’s still standing, who’s got a plan, and where the real dangers are hiding.
Three cities dominate the conversation: Moscow, a city where new ID rules, payment bans, and police raids have turned adult work into a high-stakes game of hide-and-seek, Dubai, where foreign workers face deportation, jail, or worse for simply showing up to a meeting, and Munich, a place where legal compliance, banking access, and self-defense are non-negotiable. These aren’t just locations—they’re legal ecosystems. Each one demands a different playbook. In Moscow, you need crypto payments and silent support networks. In Dubai, your safety plan starts with never trusting a client’s story. In Munich, you file taxes like a small business because the law sees you that way whether you like it or not.
What connects these places? The same truths: screening clients isn’t optional, emergency routes aren’t a suggestion, and isolation kills faster than the police. You’ll find guides here on how to build a profile that attracts repeat clients without revealing your face, how to spot exploitation before it’s too late, and how to leave the industry without ending up homeless. No sugarcoating. No fake empowerment. Just what works on the ground—whether you’re in a studio apartment in Moscow, a hotel room in Dubai, or a rented flat in Munich. Below, you’ll see real stories, real tools, and real risks from people who’ve been there. If you’re doing this work, you need to know what’s changed. And if you’re thinking about it? You need to know what you’re walking into.
