    I do.

    They're my life blood.

    I've been massaged by men in the past, but they were blind, and I could have easily outwrestled them.

    Woman to man - just like a massage is meant to be.

    It's a "hot" experience, even if it's strictly legit.

    Kind of annoying when the "masseuse" clearly has done no training in the area and just kind of, lamely pushes oil around.

    But a good masseuse?

    Pffff - it's like she's massaging you to your very soul - AW LAWD!!!

    Anyone else love massage as much as I do?

    Yeah, she was always sending me on messages.

    Yeah I feel ya.

    Until I realized that's half the point of the massage, the getting naked, the oil slicked across the skin, the general depravity of it all - AW LAWD!!

    Fully qualified massage therapist here, so yes.

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

    No. I'd be afraid I'd get an erection if it was a woman masseuse. I don't want a man touching me.

    One studies and earns a qualification in holistic massage.

    yup, regularly.

    Qualified as a sports massage therapist a number of years ago, took about 18months part time, in that time i was getting massaged twice a week...my body was never in such good condition.

    Deep tissue massage i makes me feel human again. I think everyone should get massages. We put our body through a huge amount every day. It needs help resetting itself.

    I live in Asia and get one pretty much every week. Its my little treat to myself and usually only costs about €15. I get good deep ones to loosen up my lower back muscles as they are in rag order.

    I used to be shy about them but now I leap up naked on the table and don't give a damn if it is a female or male.

    Travelling in South East Asia ruined massages for me, was getting them almost daily and I'll tell you those ladies are not gentle- I swear I was sexually assaulted once or twice :eek:. No malice intended or suspected, to them you are a piece of meat there to be tenderized. Can't get a decent massage here anymore, they're way too gentle. Funny thing is, it's doubtful that they have any formal training, it's just something passed on from generation to generation in some places i guess. Or maybe better awareness/ higher importance placed on self care.

    What I can tell you fren is that, that's what ALL masseuses think, whether its beauty parlor, spa, you local friendly thai massage.

    That's - the point.

    To get undressed, and to get touched on.

    I agree - it pretty much sucks.

    It seems there's little to no training of any masseuse in any Dublin parlor I've been to.

    The criteria for employment seems to follow the basic protocol of, "you're young, pretty, and prepared to grope naked men - you're hired!".

    Thailand was a great spot of massage - great spot.


    When you say, they "molested" you - what's mean?

    What exactly transpired that would make you think that?

    Massaged by asian men, or women?

    I've been to some good masseuses in Dublin, the best ones tend to massage everywhere, scalp, face, shoulders, chest, arms, fingers, penis, testicles, buttock, thighs, anus, calfs, ankles and feet.

    This, when I started giving the gym some serious time a couple of years ago, out of necessity, at the beginning my muscles were feeling completely dead and a weekly visit to a physio made a huge difference..I did feel human again that’s a great description...from limping on the way in to almost being able to go running when we are done. I’d never have contemplated or seen the point of it but it’s super relaxing, super rehabilitative and mighty all round for your wellbeing...

    Women- I have no suspicion that it would have been intentional and thus it didn't make me feel in any way vulnerable or violated but like I said, you're a piece of meat and they work until the tension is gone, not paying too much attention to where they're actually massaging :eek:.

    Okay, so - where exactly did they exactly massage?

    And your contention was, they were oblivious to doing it?

    We must not leave anything to the imagination in these critical circumstances.

    I'm a massage regular. Can't beat a good (professional) massage. It's hard to find a good place but when you do you stick with it!

    In my experience there are four types of places in Dublin:
    1. Commercial outfits that will iron out the tension and knots in muscles in a professional non-sexual manner
    2. Beauty outfits that will only reluctantly accept male clients and pretty much just gently oil you and provide a relaxing non sexual experience
    3. Thai Massage outfits that provide a pretty good massage and also offer the extra option of a 'happy ending'. Note that you don't have to accept the offer and they seem unconcerned either way!
    4. Dodgy outfits that use massage as a front to offer sexual services

    You can usually tell which is which if you have any common sense or awareness. Feel free to DM me for recommendations for category 1 and the others to avoid :eek:
