I was in my mid-20's and had no idea what I was doing regarding hiring. I was in Vegas and called a service. They sent someone over but I was nervous and he wasn't my type. (I don't think I really even knew what my "type" was at that point but he didn't turn me on.) I said I wanted someone else and he left promising the service would send someone else. Of course, I had paid upfront and was completely clueless/naive. After several calls to the service, I finally realized a replacement was not going to show up. I didn't hire for a few years, mostly because I didn't have the money to do so, but when I did, I learned to be more assertive and upfront about my wants.

Thanks guys. I'm going to check him out tomorrow afternoon.

I gave up looking after they stopped their m4m section. Recently, someone posted a CL ad here so I started looking occasionally but with little to no success. I've only seen a couple of private/independent masseurs, no spas (at least for m4m) listed under the "beauty" section. The one ad that interested me, the guy wouldn't send a face pic. ?‍♂️ Probably the only time m4m spas use CL is just to hire masseurs these days.

I'm not particularly thrilled to go to Manta/New Hero/Grandee but I would give it a try again for a Nuru massage.

I would love to get a Nuru massage in NYC!

No, but I found out that an ex-bf did an amateur porn movie.

It was actually Sunny Boy (Boys?) before it became 27 Men Spa. Moon Boy(s?) was a different spa nearby on 25th and 6th Ave. But yes, I remember Jason well. His massages were nice at Sunny Boy but even better at WM Spa. He was one of my favorites at the time. I think WM Spa said he got a job in a restaurant but who knows for sure.

Yeah, that's about what I was expecting, but my point remains - why pay $70 for 60 min when the other place ONE BLOCK AWAY (lol) is cheaper for the exact same service. ?‍♂️ I guess 27 Men Spa is relying on their star performers to pull in the clients.

? Hmmm... I just checked out 27 Men Spa's FB page to see who's working this week. A few weeks ago, they announced that they will have a 2nd location nearby. This week's FB post added some new (and in my opinion, unfortunate) info. It sounds like the price will be higher than the original location after the first month. Here's their wording: "80% of current team will move to new location. Some more new guys will join. The price will be same as first location for first one month." The new location is only about a block away from the original. I could understand offering extras for a fee, like a table shower or a pedicure, but charging more for the same service, just a (slightly) different location? I wish them the best. Some of the guys will have regulars who will probably be willing to pay a little more but I don't know how this will work in the long run. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Well, we met today. I don't think we were a good match but he has some positive attributes/skills. Nice guy and eager to please.

Understandable but this time he might have a good reason for not specifying. It seems he has two locations - one in midtown Manhattan and another in Queens.

Hmmm, "member since Nov 9th 6pm" and already reviewed the following day? Plus the whole pics swiped from another site? Sounds sketchy...

Yes, definitely! I have been able to extend some time on an outing or two but overall it has been very difficult to get away for a massage. Once, I took a trip to see family. I said I was coming home a day later than I really was and I booked a hotel for a night in my own city. I met an escort that night and got a massage the next day before heading home for real. lol And one day, my husband had to go to work because his laptop died and his IT needed him to bring it in. That was a fun day for me. haha

Bump Have you tried him yet? I'm planning to see him this weekend. Just wondering if you and anyone else has met him and wish to share experiences in a DM or a general "yay or nay" on this thread?

Yeah, the pics were maybe 4-5 years old. I could deal with that. The actual experience? Very “meh”.

@Chad Constantine I tried Louis today. Can't say I'd recommend him myself. Pics are old. Could say more but you know... no reviews. lol

Yeah, it was pretty stupid of them to re-name Manta as New Hero when "old" Hero had legal problems. There's an upside in terms of getting your fans to follow you, but you don't want the negative attention either.

I love to rim but I definitely understand why some (many?) don't like it. There's a huge difference between putting your cock in someone's ass (especially with a condom) and putting your lips/tongue in someone's shithole.

I'm 99% sure that this guy used to work at East Men Spa years ago (7-8 years ago?) and moved to Babylon Spa briefly, IIRC. Haven't seen him in ages. If memory serves, he's slightly odd but willing to please. lol And I didn't realize East Men had been resurrected. Guess I shouldn't be too surprised.

As a nonsmoker, It helps me decide if I want to hire someone. I don't like kissing a smoker. ?

Did you pay more than the regular 27 Men Spa rate for his massage? I wonder how that deal works out for him?

If you are sticking to strictly therapeutic massages, 25% is probably fine. It depends on how cheap the massage is for me though. There's a chain spa here in NYC that charges about $70 for 90 minutes. (I think? It's been awhile since I've visited them thanks to Covid.) 25% of $70 is only $17.50, but I tip $30 if they are good, or maybe $25 if they are average. Massaging for 90 minutes is a lot of work and they don't make much money. I feel like a total of $100 for a 90 min massage is a great deal.

Well. I think 100% for a "certain massages" is pretty good. I usually tip about $50 for an hour and $70 for 90 min and only go to 100% for special occasions. lol I've been going to TSMS for a couple of years now, not quite since they opened, but almost, and no one has ever questioned my tipping there except for Philip, who asked for a "good tip" in the middle of the massage. He needs to ask because, well, I just wouldn't recommend him (no reviews here...).

How much are you tipping? (If you don’t mind me asking? lol) The only one there who’s ever asked me about tips there is Philip and he’s not worth a good tip.

There's definitely a difference for the top, at least for me. I love the feeling of raw sex, but sex with a condom is usually less "stimulating". It takes me a lot longer to cum, if I can cum at all using a condom. I think bottoms can definitely feel the more powerful ejaculations. I have had a few myself and every time the bottom would comment on how he could feel me cumming. And I'm talking about hook-ups, not escorts looking for a bigger tip with fake a "oooh baby, that was so hawt! I could feel you cumming." ?
