Masseurs Offering "Extras"

[RayK]

When a masseur's profile pics are quite explicit, is it safe to assume that services beyond just massage are being offered ?

[MassageCommunityMember]

No I wouldn’t assume anything except that you need to always clarify expectations.

[Nightowl]

There’s reason to be optimistic but nothing is guaranteed.

[DunwoodyGuy]

It's never safe to assume. You have to develop a way of asking, clearly but respectfully.

The pictures are a menu offering, like in a cheap restaurant. You point to the picture of the masseur mounting the table or whatever one takes your fancy and say ‘I’ll have that please’. Note there may be small print somewhere in his T’s& C’s that says ‘pictures are a serving suggestion…’

I would also think that mentioning HIV status strongly implies that it might matter.

One of the most erotic massages I ever experienced was with a guy who did not have explicit pictures on rentmasseur.   You never fully know what to expect in my experience.  That's half the fun of a sensual massage.

One of my least erotic massages was from a guy who had multiple paragraphs of highly suggestive text, plenty of provocative photos, and a rate that was close to what an escort would charge.  He left his shirt and shorts on the entire time and recoiled when I made any attempt to touch him (such as his legs as he stood by the table).  I figured out that he was a con artist when the session ended after a poor therapeutic massage and nothing more.  Maybe had I been the guy's "type" he would have provided what he advertised, but I'll never know.

On the other hand, I hired plenty of masseurs who had oral sex with me (and sometimes even anal) who just placed run-of-the-mill erotic massage ads.  

So, to echo the above, don't make assumptions based on what a masseur writes in his ad.
