This page is an open forum for Male Massage Therapists to ask a question. I’ll try to answer the question personally, but I’m hoping other experienced male massage therapists will also respond, maybe even with a dissenting opinion.
Please think about your question before you ask it. Well thought-out questions generally receive well thought-out answers in any massage forum. The more details you give regarding your question, the better the answerer can formulate a response.
And remember, any question should be regarding how male massage therapists deal with the legitimate massage profession. No questions of a sexual nature!
Remember the submission rules before you post.
