Getting a Massage from Another Bloke

    I like a good massage. Most people do, I'd imagine - but I have a thing about making sure that I book an appointment with a female masseuse.

    The thought of some bloke rubbing oil into my back, quite frankly, doesn't appeal to me. My missus thinks I'm a bit of a caveman in this respect & says it's a very old fashioned way of thinking.

    However, my guess is that a lot of blokes feel the same about the issue.

    So my question is... would it bother you to a massage from another bloke?

    I'd have thought if you were the type to book a massage it wouldn't be an issue.

    A male masseuse wouldn't be for me anyway.

    Yeah doesn't wouldn't feel right, even feel uneasy with another male rubbing suncream on my back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,288 ✭✭✭✭Standard Toaster


    Only if the other bloke is Sean Connery in Zardoz costume, then it's ok in my book.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,303 ✭✭✭Temptamperu


    young asian ladys only please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,059 ✭✭✭Buceph


    A physio/medical massage I wouldn't give a **** about.

    Otherwise I'd be uncomfortable.

    What's the difference? Neither is sexual as far as I know (or have I misunderstood the OP...?)

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Sensuality is the difference.

    Don't thgnk either is meant to be sensual. Again, I may have misinterpreted the OP.

    What about massaging another man? I don't think I could do it either. Only masseuse I want is my wife these days. Why pay some randomer to do it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    I had a back,neck ,shoulder ,leg massage from a fully qualified male masseur some years ago , at a massage palour that deals with sports related injurys .

    Felt fcuking great afterwards , they had wimminz masseurs to there to so am looking foreward to the female touch for the next one .

    There is no problem getting a massage from a bloke but if your not comfortable with it why bother. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks as their no getting the massage. Massages are much better if you are relaxed and obviously you won't be relaxed with a bloke massaging you.

    I personally prefer getting a massage from guys as id be worried about erection with a woman.

    If she's really a woman she probably won't get an erection! :cool:


    OT:

    In theory / intellectually: no problem.

    In practice: I'd probably opt not to.

    Just go for it, man.
    Always suspected you were a big gay.

    Guys will give you a harder massage so it depends what you like.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,477 ✭✭✭✭Raze_them_all


    Got one done in a proper turkish bath house in turkey. Didn't bother me at all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,132 ✭✭✭Killer Pigeon


    Pop!

    Imagine if you got an erection by accident while he was massaging you - the awkwardness.

    Wouldn't you find awkward if it happened with a woman although it would be worse if it happened with a man

    My cousin said he felt like he'd been raped after his experience in the turkish baths. They wash the balls an all I've heard.

    I like a real strong, deep massage; but there's no way i want a man oiling up my tightly wound body, getting in there real deep with his fingers and thumbs and rendering me supple and relieved.

    It rational and understandable that guys will worry about that .In my case I had lower back problem at the time and was recomended the sports clinic massage , so I went along and was slightly nervous about getting an erection but saw it as just a form of pyhsio what footballers reguarly get although my injury wasn't football related .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,874 ✭✭✭padma


    so, theres what one maybe two people here who like men giving them a massage?

    I'd only be bothered if the masseur got an erection.

    Ah but why put yourself in to a situation where that could happen? hahaha, or the hand slipped and knocked the lad ;) by accident carry-on was to happen. Essentially the ass wouldn't get the rub or the upper thigh.

    One of the lads I know got stung in a place in Spain. A fine bird in the window, in he goes, all going well. Your one brings him in to the room, off with the clothes towel over him, in walks a guy.

    Careful now, they could be lady boys. :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,730 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    No bother at all, sure I'm trained in two forms of sports massage, swedish massage, stress management and reflexology myself. If you were in such a mind that you were uncomfortable with the idea, you would never go in the first place.

    Sure all that matters is that you are getting a professional service, and you walk out pleased with the treatment right?

    We all had a good giggle at this in the office, the girls said they'd definitely be game as long as he was good looking.

    The lads are of split opinion however, speaking for myself it wouldn't bother me as I've had plenty of massages from manly men who were really good at what they done. Good thing to bear in mind is it's not personal, these people have devoted a fair amount of time and effort into getting good at what they do and most likely if they're good with their hands they'd have no problem pulling anyway so they're unlikely to put it on you whilst you're laying there.

    That said however, if it was coming from a friend I wouldn't be so sure.. it may be a sign ;)
