You most certainly already have at some point.

Queers also make and touch your food too along with thousands of other jobs that you come into contact with every day.

If you had actually read my post and replied to what was in it, i wouldn't have to say that.

If this was a battlefield, then you have already lost the war because you didnt comprehend my OP. I said that if the masseuse was being suggestive towards you, regardless of persuasion, would one still be inclined to be massaged by them. Was that clear enough for you? :frown:

Son, i got the OP and i explained my position how the fuck else could i possibly respond?

READ, COMPREHEND, UNDERSTAND were words on the chalkboard when i was 5-12, perhaps they should use that on American chalkboards too?

And sane human beings care more about the hygiene than about their sexual orientation.

Of course, some people aren't sane.

Indeed. I wonder if Jumpem lets black people have the honor of cutting his hair or if he stays away from the 'colored' establishments. :roll:

Pounds per pounds of square inch? 2k? that is a metric ton for every inch of your body.

I know you dream of a girfriend and some day you might get one but this is just pathetic.

Time for a lesson in language

If that is sarcasm then it's fucking stupid.

I don't think it was intended as sarcasm.

Americans are usually not subtle nor provide measurements when they are sarcastic since no American understands subtle irony.

Seriously, there was a movement, a real fucking movement against "the life of Brian" in the US, that is confirming that the irony is actually truth.

I highly doubt it was sarcasm, but I know for sure it was exaggeration

Stop dodging the OP and address it properly. Or would you rather remain ignorant? :(

I hate to break it to you, but racism != homophobia. Also, plenty of non-white homophobes around as well. What percentage of blacks voted for Proposition 8 in Cali? Heck, I even know a lesbian that "dislikes" blacks and Hispanics.

So you don't want a hot, sexy massage? Just a plain jane, "professional" one. I seeee....

You are in a chair face down and there is this person looking you up and down with that "I want you look". Sorry, but thats a deal breaker.

Umm what?! Why? And, where can I sign up? ;)

Actually our culture is much more geared toward subtle humor than you seem to understand. You clearly have NO idea how often we use sarcasm and exaggeration. I am positive you are the only dumbfuck in this thread who thought he was being serious.

Oh, and yeah, Americans might be heavier on average, but at least we don't live in the biggest nanny state on the planet. I'll take being fat over living in a real life depiction of 1984.

The only (professional) massage I ever got was from a chinese dude when I was in...China. He did a great job - rolled all my knots out. And I know several massage therapists - they say if the massage is "too rough" you're supposed to tell them to go softer.

And there are Jewish Nazists... SO FUCKING WHAT?

Does it matter at all?

As a Jew and an officer of the SAS i can tell you that while you might pretend you are "free" you most certainly are the mot uptight nation in the world.

Thanks for taking the crown, i award your nation queen of the commonwealth.

I just wanted to add that you are FUCKING PATHETIC.

None of that matters regarding equality and when and if they can grow a brain to implant into your empty skull you will understand that.

So you are saying this guy is good for relieving your tension? ;)

Not all gay people are the same. Nevertheless, would someones behavior leave you inclined to decline a massage if they were "extroverted" about their heterosexual or homosexual inclinations? Would that make you uncomfortable?

Before you answer, think for a minute. You are in a chair face down and there is this person looking you up and down with that "I want you look". Sorry, but thats a deal breaker. If you cant be a professional regardless of your persuasion Im outta there.

Sexual behavior during a professional interaction is unacceptable. Orientation has nothing to do with it.

Yeah, well i don't know who massages you but it's more like 15-30% in most places.

Of course, a "massage parleur" will massage only one percent for your pleasure.

Depends on the Massage and/or location/venue. If it is "Full release" Massage/Venue, sure. If it's a Medical Clinic or non-sexual Spa Massage, No.

Context, is important.

My kids ended every shool day with a 5 minute massage/massaging. I think that is a good idea for most and they liked it.

I think non-sexual human contact is important for children. Well it's important for all of us, when i meet my daughter and son we pull up our shirt/sweaters so that our bellies touch skin to skin, that is reality for us.

They used to fall asleep on my shoulders when they were little and to this day, i sleep as if i had them there, in my dreams i do....

Fuck i am making myself homesick.

Okay, that's just creepy. And massages every day after school? Shouldn't your children instead be walking home uphill barefoot in snow...both ways?
I'm not saying I've lived a tough life, but at least I never got massages after school every day either.

Massages are awesome, and it only takes a few minutes to do one. Why wouldn't you give your kids a massage?
