Question
Hi. I was wondering if it was against the law to receive an erotic massage by trained and licensed men.  I live in the Houston, TX area and would like to receive one.  There are a lot of websites out there that offer these services so I figured that it is legal.  What is your advice?  If it is legal, is it okay to find a masseur at one of the on-line sites?  If so, what are some of the best ones?  If not, how could I go about locating a good erotic masseur?  Thanks.  - Chris

Answer
Hi Chris,

I am not able to give you legal advise on gay massage but I would suggest that you check out your local laws regarding this. Chances are, the providers would know this as well. I don't see anything wrong with erotic massage if that is what you need and you are emotionally ready for that. I don't know your age, sexual experience, if you are out, and if you are a virgin.  All which might effect my answer. I would advise you to have safe sex and to do your homework in picking out a person to give you erotic massage.

I wish you the best. I have not tried any of the online massage sites so I can't help you there.

Expertise

I have often helped gays in their challenge to understand what it means to come out and how best to start down that road. I have and also helped gays to reconcile the often difficult struggle of being gay and being a Christian. I now understand one of God's truths more clearly: Our pain is not wasted when we can reach around and comfort another coming along behind us on the same path.

Experience

I too had to deal with these issues when I finally accepted who I was and started down my own path to come out. It is difficult to imagine now how much I have changed and how much I have learned as I traveled this most curious journey. For many years, I have hosted a website to address this issue and to help others.
