So, I realize it's only been 5 days since I created this post, but I find it interesting that not a single member has posted that they know a client or a massuer who has had the virus. Especially in L.A.
 
Anyone? Buehler? Buehler?

I am an older guy (59) and would not classify myself as someone that anyone would consider "hot". Also, I have only been getting massages for about 2 years. Nonetheless, my limited experience has provided about 2/3 of the time I either have had intercourse or been offered it. I am not really an anal guy, so I've often passed. Those same two-thirds have provided an oral happy ending. And I would also say my package isn't smoething overly exciting. I surprisingly think it's more based on petsonality and chemistry. What I lack in phyicality I make up for in personality. I think that's why my personal percentage is so high. I think everyone's percentage will be different based on that. Jm2c

I started getting massages about 3 years ago. I learned a very valuable lesson:
proper hygiene and impeccable grooming will take your far, on a massage table ?.

I've had similar experiences, including in legit spas. I'm fairly open in my flirting and most guys picked up on it after a session or two. If they were open to play, things happened, if not, no worries. I'm one of those guys who believes a great massage should end with a happy ending for one or both of us, preferably more than just a hand job.

Whether it is a masseur I know or a new masseur I would be interested in, the risk factor is still there. Close contact does not get any closer than massage. (except for escorts). And news reports are saying that antibody tests are kind of sketchy right now, with a substantial number of false positives, so accuracy is not totally reliable. In the beginning, if you read early threads ( Late February-Mid April) 99% of Forum members were anti-massage for fear of contracting Covid 19 and/or spreading it to others, especially the elderly. Now with the evening news showing daily stories of states "opening" , and protests of people wanting to end their lockdown, I sense the same mood starting in the Forum, of clients willing to start venturing out for a massage under certain conditions. In the past week I experienced the horror of Covid 19 up close and personal. My mother of 78 years old had a fever starting last Monday...it lasted until Wednesday when they tested her. She came back positive. She did have an underlying heart condition. She rapidly went downhill, and died yesterday, Saturday, May 2nd at 3pm. None of us (4 kids) or family were allowed in the room. She was surrounded by hospital staff (strangers) dressed in hazmat suits when she died. No one should die like that. I am shell shocked, seeing this up close happening with my own beloved Mother. No one knows how she contracted Covid 19, obviously through casual contact. After this experience, I will not get on a massage table again until there is a vaccine. It is worth the wait, in my opinion, after seeing your own Mother die from Covid 19.

Perhaps an antibody test (which is available now) can speed things along. I know it doesn't ensure immunity for now, but its a step in the right direction.

I see a guy regularly who I get a premassage table salt scrub from. He joins me in the shower to rinse the scrub from all my nooks and crannies before we start the massage.

@EVdude There are several places in NYC (and probably most big cities) looking for blood donations from people who had or think they had COVID-19. Donating might be a way for you to find out for sure.

I'd like to add that while I know we're all in this together, do I really need to hear it in every other ad/commercial??

I've noticed a fair number of masseurs still offering services here in L.A. Obviously they do so because there are still clients seeking services and masseurs that need money because government benefits for the self-employed are slow to arrive. Without breaking and confidentialities, and names are not requested, I just want to know if any of you are aware of masseurs or clients that have become ill in close proximity to a massage, or been informed by their masseur or client of a positive Covid-19 diagnosis? Just looking for some type of assessment of how prevelant the virus may be in our subset community?

I've been thinking about favorite therapists, wondering if they are OK. They are really sweet guys, the ones I work with. I know it is a professional relationship but I miss them. Looking forward to having risk of COVID behind us.

This one is on my list as well. Boy is that list getting long

The New York State Attorney General's Office has become quite interested in non essential business operations during this time.
 
I think anyone openly flouting the rules at this point is taking a gamble: personal, societal and legal.
 
It can't be said enough. This is not about YOU. If you and a therapist want to take a risk yourselves, whatever.... The issue is the transmission of the virus that is inevitable with close personal contact (i.e., the unsuspecting roommate, spouse, or grocery store clerk you later pass it on to.)
 
The risk is also that when you perhaps get sick you might take up a hospital bed and expose medical personnel needlessly.
 
I realize people need their incomes. But so do waiters and movie theatre clerks and taxi drivers and airport staff and bartenders and hotel maids and personnel trainers, and the list goes on and on and on. No one is special at this moment.
 
People need to think about the bigger picture, not just their immediate needs.

Hence why I am loving the massage video posts and Pornhub for now

I've turned disinfecting into foreplay prior to masturbation. Can't trust myself too much.

I would block that party from contacting me and remember how he acted during these terrible times. The one thing we have control over is the social distancing and I just don’t see how you can do that in a massage session unless you’re both in hazmat suits .... I stopped hiring 3 weeks ago and have been enjoying the massage videos that kind souls have been posting under the spa group on here. IMHO of course
