Ok, I have been bought a professional, (sports), massage as my upper back  feels like a lump of concrete.
 
Ok, ok, I was bought up in the 70's so I'm a little old-fashioned about being touched by another bloke. I just can't imagine Richard Widmark or say John Thaw from the Sweeny being comfortable with it either.
 
I know these days I should be wearing eye-shadow and such like and wearing a man handbag, like some of the younger lads in the feverzone but I just can't.
 
Am I being silly or should I just insist on a fit chick with a nice pair of... hands?

Dude, you're a cyclist...thought you'd be into the male touch?

Seriously though, we have massages at work, by a  dude. All good. He has strong hands.
I like tautologies because I like them.

I am cyclist but I'm not a roadie, I don't dress in full lycra, I still tend to dress as a mountain biker really, so I don't shave my legs or listen to Johnny Mathis.

Perfectly understandable, I couldn't do it.

May I ask what therapist you are going to? I know a few from when I was studying (massage therapy as it happens. It may seem weird for you but obviously male massage therapists are (in general) stronger (though I def wouldn't discount women therapists). Be keen to know who it is.

As a side note, the Nix have a male massage therapist (as well as a female one)

depends on what you want as the outcome, a back that works wiothout pain, or a happy ending from a hot chick with weak hands? Get over ya'self not all male masseurs are checking you out.

Semi-related can I just say that whoever chucked "I think it moved" under George Kostanzas Avatar is a comedy genius. It's always made me smile.

Lie back and think of England!
 
That said I guess I might be a bit "tense" in that situation too.

Good lord no it shouldn't happen. The only reasonable time a man should touch your back is when you're challenging for a header and he's pushing you out of the way.

the male would have to be a below-the-knees specialist and the chick everything-else specialist. That's the only way it's acceptable.

Fuck this stupid game

FT are you still alive after your massage experience? I'm gagging (erm?) to know who the therapist is/was.
