Hygiene and showers (lack of)

[jinglyballs]

Hi all,

Having worked overseas for years it was just normal and expected to take a shower both before and after a massage. Regularly in fact the masseuse would join you too and that definitely became one of my favourite parts.

So having come back to Ireland 6 months ago, I have found it both surprising and quite shocking to see the lack of showers available ( or rather even offered or expected by Masseuses on the scene here). Obviously there are exceptions but definitely a very high majority of punts I've experienced here, they just bring you in and expect to get straight down to business.

Is it just me that finds it weird or are your experiences been the same? What does it say about the Masseuses' and their own hygiene standards!? Whilst I am a bit more mature and reasonably well dressed/presented I doubt it's that or my glorious body odour that wants them to avoid me starting off clean and fresh! You know yourself after a day's work or hours driving around, I don't feel particularly clean and the lack of facilities offered has definitely as a result impacted on my enjoyment at times. You feel more self conscious indeed.

I've had extreme examples too, from no shower, to broken shower and no running water in the taps or loo, to arranging a soapy massage shower only for the girl to be horrified (after taking my money) for me to even suggest wanting to use her shower! .....and that was only 10 minutes after having the conversation on the phone with her about it! Her towels turned out to be teatowels too

I have posted this in massage because I'd like to think it's less of and issue amongst the escorts but I've examples from there too. Only recently I guy who was running over was literally coming out of the room as I arrived, the girl never went out to clean herself even, it played on my mind and It was a waste of an hour, I just couldn't wait to get out of the place.

Being cynical too, you would have thought masseuses' would encourage you to shower, in that way wasting a good 10 minutes where they wouldn't have to physically be giving you any service!
