"Qualified at massage" message

Jump to newest

over a year ago

I dont mean this to come across as a rant-more as a genuine interest/question.

Recently ive noticed that a lot of messages from single males and a lot of male profiles have said that they are a professional masseur, fully qualified to offer massages, anytime!

So my questions are this-has anyone else noticed that this is becoming more common?

Is this a new trend for men, do they really go to classes and get a certificate?

Or is it just the latest in a long line of "tactics" to appear more attractive?

Dont get me wrong-either way i love a good massage but im wondering if it's

become a thing like Yoga or Zumba

So many places offer 'qualifications' in massage it'd be hard to out the genuine from the fake.

My point exactly-ive never come across ANYONE in the real world who has taken a course in massage!

So how likely is it that 1 in 10 men in the fab world have??

I have taken a course in massage!

However you are right to be wary of the dozens of guy's claiming to be qualified as most that have contacted me offer massage with baby oil, if they were truly qualified they would be using better quality oils etc and understand the reasons why baby oil is not a good choice!

Also if they were qualified they would understand the importance of investigating a persons medical history before attempting to give massage, as give massage to people with certain conditions eg varicose veins can be dangerous...

Years ago (in my youth) my girlfriends mum did a massage course and I was her guineapig for practicing on. Ohhhh how I enjoyed those friday mornings at the college.... the times I had to wait a few minutes before getting off the massage bed

the stuff of Readers Wives fantasy, ahhh happy days!

I know quite a few people personally who have taken professional massage courses, but they are all female. I do think it is quite 'fashionable' like Zumba etc. but I also suspect that some guys might be lying when they claim on their profiles that they are qualified to give massages.

As a male I have 0 friends male or female on fab that can massage and have 0 friends in the outside world that can massage so I would say the are fibbers.

I have never had a massage ;( and probably would not know the difference however if the person was real or not.

I've done aromatherapy massage. But just a couple of hours. Not a full course. Wouldn't claim to be an expert. Think 99% are fibbing.

We would have thought that if you were a professional, that would indicate it is something you do for money, to earn a living or whatever - so to offer a "free" service seems a little strange. Is this a trend in the "massage industry"? We don't see so many similar offers form other "professions" such as accountants, lawyers, builders, mechanics etc.

On balance then, we reckon that many who offer this "service" may be fibbing just a little bit!

Even assuming all these guys are qualified, would it really improve their chances? Surely if a female/couple wouldn't be interested in guy then the fact he is qualified to give massages isn't going to change their mind?

If I'm wrong though I'm a window cleaner and happy to clean windows of anybody who wants to meet me lol

I'm qualified. I love giving them (and receiving) and find them very sensual, so my interest developed into a hobby and is now a sideline.

Think it's pretty easy to tell if someone is qualified or not when receiving a massage, unless perhaps you've never had a professional one as a comparison.

It's on my profile, but don't push it when chatting. Massage isn't for everyone

It's the same thing with photography - there are loads of profiles stating the are professional photographers...they actually mean they own a camera.

Using that rationale the same people probably think by virtue of having hands they are a qualified masseuse

I have absolutely NO qualifications in massage and don't profess to that skill on my profile either.

However, on a few separate meets, I have randomly given a massage, it kind of developed as we'd got on so well during the time we'd spent together, and I like to give them. It's always been a nice relaxing end to an evening.

I'm qualified in massage - many hours studying anatomy & physiology, 100s of hours of massage done and also, for the aromatherapy qualification, hours studying oils, contraindications etc.

Strangely, random men offering to give me a massage doesn't impress me. I find it hard enough to relax into a professional massage, as I'm inwardly judging their style

Hi I'm the male of the couple and did 4 yrs training for massage etc and had a business set up teaching to outreach colleges and Uni, I did it for 12yrs. I loved it but due to ill health don't practice anymore, I do friends or family if asked and it is on our profile but if someone wanted one it would be strictly prof ! and I have certificates to prove, old ins and i was a member of 2 prof groups. So there are some genuine members out there but I must admit I will be a Minority !

I know that anyone CAN get qualified, what i was asking originally was if anyone had noticed it being used as a "line" on fab more often or if it was genuinely becoming more popular as a sideline job/hobby because no one that i know has done it and yet a lot of people on fab have-so that either suggests that it is a line, or that people qualified in massage techniques are unusually horny/kinky and therefore more likely to be on fab

Would that many people want a massage - qualified or otherwise - as part of a meet experience ?

It's just the latest in a long line of experiences that men assume women want, or to be frank, another extreme to which people will go to empty their balls.

It all seems a bit desperate to me.

Apologies to those with a genuine interest in massage as a therapy as opposed to as a leg opener.

asking a lady if she would like a massage is a lead in to other things - on here, in clubs - in coffee shops - it's a gentle lead in to foreplay and more

I do enjoy giving massage and also receiving - but i am also very aware of the need to know limits and not pretend to be something i am not

there used to be a guy on the manchester club scene who claimed to be an expert - mind you he claimed to be an expert at most things

Massages are not hard, you just need a bit of knowledge about the human body and how to apply your hands and fingers in a way the person on the receiving end will appreciate it.
