Gay. hands down. I got a massage at a m4m place in New York City, and read in the reviews that one of the brothers was straight who ran the place. I end up getting him and.. the fake attitude was a total turn off. I don't want to be manipulated by a straight guy and that's what it felt like. If the provider was bi or gay, I would be more comfortable but.. how would anyone know?

I'm going to spend a few months in Australia starting in Melbourne and traveling around a bit. What are the rules/laws around male massage.. etc.. in Australia? When I was in Germany you go for a massage and a happy ending is included in the price. I don't know what the rules, etc. around this are in Australia so would appreciate any guidance or referrals.

DC is a dry zone. No massage therapists, no strip clubs, it's a vacant lot for men.

The female run massage places seem to have the best. I've not gotten the same from a male except once in Atlanta. In the DC area, a table shower is this long massage table that is in a shower setting. You lay on it naked and someone literally bathes you. It's a wonderful feeling. Unfortunately the "showers" I've had at male spas in NYC tend to be a little splashing of water, no bathing. The problem with going to the female places is.. well. they're female.....

I don't understand Grandee hate either. I've been there four time over the past two years and it's been fantastic each time. The shower is anemic and pointless, but the massages have always been good and I've had enormous fun.

He actually works at Chaan Thai Massage in Herndon. Met him on Grindr, but I have not visited him. Another member here did and said he was legit only, but does do out call. Chaan Thai Massage | Traditional massage | Home page WWW.CHAANTHAIMASSAGE.COM Chaan Thai Massage delivers traditional Thai-style massages, leveraging the vital connection between mind, body, and spirit to help achieve ultimate...

It truly is. There's very little choice here. I get on the train every couple of months and go to NYC. Choice in abundance but ..so is crime and violence.

I only know of ONE male provider in NoVA at Chaan Massage, but all other massage parlors are female run. Does anyone know of a parlor or spa with male masseurs?

This is one of the many reasons I've never tried the escorts or website ads. In Northern Virginia there are no male providers to speak of, so when I go to NYC it's wonderful to visit on the M4M spas like any other customer.

Honestly, it depends on the guy. It's really hard to find a male provider who is legit, let alone one who does extras. For the massage itself, $70 is about as much as I'm willing to pay because I can get a great female massage for less than that. Extras.. Like I said in my message about rates, more than $50 and I am better off waiting till I get home. It's really a shame that getting a massage from a man is still seen as homoerotic or somehow less masculine for straight men. There was a time when men were routinely giving other men massages.

There is a lot of information available on rates for female providers, for example $40 seems to be the going tip for a happy ending. $140 for intercourse. Somewhere in between for everything else. That could go up to $160 for an especially great provider, but often not. I apply that thinking to the spas in NYC. The beautiful men seem very happy at a $40 tip for my massage ending on a happier note. Some will let you give them a blowjob for $80. I've never gone beyond that but those seem to be fair and welcome tipping amounts. Granted it's NYC. In Washington D.C. where I live part of the year, female happy ending is $40 but from a male provider you're expected to pay more. Supply and demand I suppose. I've been wanting to seek out a male provider in the DC area but I don't want to insult them with a low tip. Hence my question.

I usually do a circuit. HK, Grandee, and energy but I'll check out others in between. The experience at TSM was just a major turn off. I would soon as go to a Tuna massage than TSM again. To each their own.

Definitely not my first massage. I don't remember which of the brothers it was but he was just a turn off. Maybe this Alven guy is better but the whole gay for pay fakery was just a turn off. If you want something less fake I suggest other places like Energy, or Grandee. Paying a straight guy to jerk you off seems sad but I guess it's all part of the fantasy.

This is a strange place and I'm curious how other's feel. I knew that both of the guys at this place are straight, but I figured I would give it a try. Alvin gave a good massage but .. it was weird. He's very straight and so it was kind of a turn off. When he pulled on the rubber glove to jerk me off it just killed the vibe. How do you feel about getting extras from a straight male provider?

I have not tried him personally but he advertises on Grindr. Chaan Thai Yoga Massage, and the person's name is Kevin. You can find him on the reservation system as Kevin P. Attractive, young, thin Asian guy. There is a short bald Asian guy that advertises about a place on Golansky Blvd in Woodbridge. Stay away, he's awful.
