Strictly therapeutic masseurs on gay sites - yay or nay?

If you’re not paying sensual massage rates please don’t try and get a sensual or erotic style massage on the cheap…even if it’s a ‘last 5 minutes jerk off’.

My objection is the opposite: guys who offer only “legitimate” massage yet think they should be paid as much as the guys who provide sensual. You want the extra pay, do the work.

I prefer legit massages from attractive (but not drop dead gorgeous) gay men with good technique and training. I usually look for these guys on gay sites. I don’t care about happy endings as can take care of that myself if necessary. However, the best massages feel like an embrace from a friend. It’s useful to have a gay therapist (and to out myself to him) so he can dispense with the draping and not feel he has to avoid passing contact with sensitive areas that might make a straight man uncomfortable. Also, I’ve had some of these experiences turn into mutual and uncompensated hookups, which are far better than anything that could be arranged through an erotic provider.
