If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck... 

The grey area is whether it is considered prostitution in the eyes of the law... where is that fine line when a sensual massage is considered sexual.

With the best will in the world Nina, the only person who apparently believes there is any difference is you, no one else and certainly not the law. It might sound better to you (just as some prostitutes prefer to be called 'escorts') but it doesn't alter the facts; sex does not begin and end with penetration or even genital contact as has been explained above, and the legal definition (which I can't link to because I'm away for the weekend and on my phone) basically requires an act to be something that a reasonable person would consider to serve as means for somebody to get their rocks off.

To state that a near naked oily woman wriggling about on a near naked man is not sexual is beyond ridiculous, and I'm pretty sure you know that as well as we do - you only seem to be here to look for loopholes that will help you get away with it. Provided you work alone you're fine just as the rest of us are, but the minute you have others on the premises it's brothel whether you like it or not, and trying to find clever wording for your marketing doesn't alter the facts any more than putting a Braeburn sticker on a orange makes it an apple.

So if I wouldn't even have to give the guy a wank why would I have to be attractive. Surely it would make more sense to have an Anne Widdecombe lookalike then there's no danger of the men wanting touched down there.

I think I responded to you earlier on that. In my opinion, your comment is completely valid if we were talking about a therapeutic massage which we are not. I have heard you and respect your opinion and even agree with it but men prefer sensual massages from attractive women... FACT. I fear this might become circular diatribe and it is now not salient anyway because I'm not hiring.

So if not a "therapeutic" massage, it's most definitely sexual.

And what one man thinks is "attractive" another will find "unattractive". Men like their bits played with by someone THEY are attracted to. Whether that's skinny, fat, pretty, ugly, white, black, tall, short, blonde, brunette, young, old....all in the eye of the beholder.

So if I wouldn't even have to give the guy a wank why would I have to be attractive. Surely it would make more sense to have an Anne Widdecombe lookalike then there's no danger of the men wanting touched down there.

I love you.

Just out of interest if your not an escort and this massage parlour is not a brothel and offers no sexual services.. Why are you advertising on a sex worker website? 

Nina, if your massages include a sexual service such as hand relief, you are running a brothel and just as liable to prosecution for this as the people running the cathouse up the road (or one of us sharing her flat, and so on).

If you are only offering straightforward massage (such I would go for at a spa), then I would ask a: in what way is it 'sensual' (ie. constituting a sexual service in the eyes of the law) and b: why are you advertising on a sex workers forum?

I see where your coming from. No word of a lie but I would  sneak in extra's as that's what I do give a sex service. It's a bit like advertizing for a cleaning job on a porn forum lol.
