Sorry I just came across a full thread on this topic and I see it was quite spirited. Sounds like there are divided views. No need to follow up here.

Sorry if this is already covered, but I have been mostly a spa type guy, mainly because I can’t host and I enjoy the scene there. I have a pretty good understanding of minimum to maximum tips for the guys who work at spas and I know they only get a small portion of the hourly fee. However, I’m considering trying a few independent Masseurs who work from their homes and I’m not sure how tipping works when you hire someone like that. In the “real world” if someone is the owner of a business, you don’t tip them because they are already getting all the money. Is that the case with masseurs? I know they’d all appreciate more money but if you don’t tip, do they think you’re cheap or don’t like the work? What is the norm for going to someone who massages from masseurfinder, etc? Thanks!

I’d love to have a drink in a Hell’s Kitchen bar with bigman!

There’s a thai spa called I’m Thai Spa very near the airport. Not sure if they’ll be open when you’re laying over. They have male masseurs. I don’t think HE is to be expected but could occur.

Would like to know more about Kevin. Asian? Twink or muscular? Cute? I love a consistent thin smooth asian guy. Seems Green House is most consistent for having asian twink Masseurs.

Ha. Yes I noticed as well. I’m guessing he was uncomfortable about the camera or maybe not gay but required to do this for pay. At least he still enjoyed it enough to come to a happy ending.

If you’re the kind of guy into thin asian Masseurs and bodies, here is a 2 parter: Part 1: https://www.gotporn.com/gay/amazing-oily-gay-thai-massage-by-bangkok-boys/video-2012365 Part 2: https://www.gotporn.com/gay/the-best-gay-asian-massage-and-spewing-cumshot/video-2282623

This is more geared to the oh so enjoyable ending of the massage, but still nice to see so many men enjoy. https://www.pornhub.com/view_video.php?viewkey=ph598c347515c77

Anyone try Ben Brooklyn? He’s just my type.

Yes. At least when they first opened it’s strictly legit with signs everywhere saying any requests or suggestions of inappropriate nature by clients will end the massage immediately. Not sure if they’ve changed as I think business has been decent there. Maybe if business slows down

I guess we’ve found white space for a talented masseur or a spa if they want to break out... here’s looking at you multiple west village spas that have nothing special about them.

Jasper is new at Babylon. He would qualify as twink, shorter and cute. He’s talented also.

Anyone know any Masseurs who are trained in delivering tantric, body electric or Lingam massages - really focused on that extra attention to key positions. In particular interested in someone who puts the recipient on all fours or other interesting positions to deliver the edging massage.

Most of those places will require some type of extended patronage and loyalty before you’ll get that unexpected experience. On occasion if there is great chemistry, it could happen on a first go around, but you’re fighting odds. I’d recommend going to New Paradise and finding a masseur you like. Then go back to him a few times. I do know that they tend to use a small towel to cover and during the stretching, it’s not uncommon to have the towel move revealing your level of enjoyment. I think they do this on purpose. I think after a few visits of aroused exposure, you may be pleasantly surprised.

He may have been proud, and I actually did ask for more time and for him to “help” and he just shook his head that he couldn’t. But I was still way aroused laying there exposed like that. He did rub very near it, I believe he brushed it a few times but wouldn’t go all the way.

Two Fish Standing Chinese Health Salon. It is a hole in the wall, but the younger guy is actually a wizard at massage.

By recommendations or experiences do you mean with extracurriculars or just a good massage? If you’re seeking extracurriculars, I also find it rather stimulating to go to a place where extras are not expected but possible. I went to a place on 9th ave where extras were not part of the deal, yet laid there on my back fully erect hoping for something... nothing occurred but the masseur didn’t seem bothered either. That was also kind of hot.

Here is a video from a guy who performs massage in Mexico City. [MEDIA=vimeo]207157756[/MEDIA] If I go back there i hope to try him.

It is incall only, I believe. Their studio is strictly for massage, not a home as far as I could tell. Very safe. A safe neighborhood and central. I can’t remember their exact rate. I asked for their massage + add on for Lingam I believe. I don’t know that you would need to add on the Lingam in my opinion. I was already driven wild by the session when they announced they were going to Lingam (which was supposed to be long edging etc, I was already edged enough and couldn’t really last much more). I can’t remember the rate but think I paid around $130 or so. I guess it was worth it overall for the experience. They were truly synchronized. If you want to save, you can get a $30 massage from Grindr but this was above and beyond.

Non sensual. Don’t think you can pick when you show up, but I imagine you can make an appointment for someone in particular as though you’ve used him or been recommended. Don’t plan on sexual activity. It’s happened on rare occasions but mostly if you’ve established a longer relationship with a masseur.

Manga charges as though they are premium but they don’t deliver premium experience. On top of that, you run a decent chance of being haggled for tips mid-massage. They are becoming more like BodyWork Station on 10th Avenue which I can’t figure out why anyone goes there.

Similar to Dylan. I’d guess 25-27 maybe. Very good massage.

FYI, if you like a smaller guy who can still pack a punch, Jasper at Babylon may fit your bill. Had a really nice massage with him.

https://nymassageaddict283494918.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/state-of-spas.pdf Results here. If you don't have the patience to read, in short, Utopia is the clear and away winner. Babylon gets props, 27 Men's Spa seems to be a spa on the rise. Enjoy.

Welp... I completed the survey analysis but it's in a pdf format. I'm not sure how to post something like that here. Any suggestions?
