Great thought provoking topic. Here are some of my Dallas memories (some good, some not):
In no particular order:
1. Dale - I second your post. Best ever in Dallas.
2. Steve of Z Massage in Mesquite - had a great website, displayed some great pics that promised a strong, masculine, sensual adventure. He had a second floor studio in his town home in Mesquite. Answered the door in a tank top and shorts, at first glance didn’t appear as muscular or as masculine as the website suggested. Up the stairs and on the table, when he entered the room to start the session, he had changed into what can best be described as a lycra spandex body suit in some blazing pastel color. Turned out to be totally fem. Massage skills were mediocre. Session ended by being wrapped in blankets like an enchilada while a lavendar scent vaporizer dispensed a sickening aroma in the room. Needless to say, I skipped the shower and never returned.
3. Chuck with Avalon Massage (Ft Worth) - saw Chuck several times. First time, he was in one of those low-rent one-room offices south of Ft Worth. The whole building was dark and mostly vacant, and Chuck had an office at the end of the dark hall, across from the restroom. What he lacked in ambience, he made up for in massage skills and sensuality. He later moved to a nice studio off I-30 on the east side of Fort Worth. Saw him several more times prior to Covid. Last I checked, his studio was vacant and I don’t know where he ended up.
4. Barry - East side of downtown Dallas - Barry had a set up at his apartment in a nice complex just east of downtown. First time I met him, he met me at the gate of his gated complex, in shorts and a t-shirt. Appeared to be small in stature. Nice apartment and set up. Massage skills were very good. Also offered some great play time off and on throughout the session. Later, he even added bamboo sticks as part of the massage, Unique and relaxing. Heard he died several years ago after moving away from Dallas.
5. Mark in Cedar Springs (near Love Field) - works out of the second floor of his home. Beautiful place, great set up. Very muscular guy and very personable. Started off the session with a body scrub, then showered, then back to table for amazing massage. He started off the session wearing a red jock strap, which was hot ! Later, the strap was removed to reveal ... well, let’s just say he was one of those best described as “hung like a horse” Saw him off and on for years up until Covid. Not sure if he is still working, I think he has some health issues along the way.
6. Bill in Cedar Springs. He used to advertise in the Dallas Voice. Had sort of a “jar head” appearance. Worked out of his apartment. A bit run down. Massage skills were just slightly above average. Not much on the extras either. A one-timer for me.
7. Floyd - Floyd’s Touch. Great website, checked all the right boxes so I scheduled. Had a studio set up on the second floor of his home in Carrolton. Great guy. Used a massage vibrating gun for part of the session (a first for me). Very interactive. I saw him a few times, but finally gave up because it was too far away for me, too much traffic.
These are but a few . . .
