In response to some rumors on some other threads, thought I'd remind everyone what is perfectly legal and drop my two cents:
Ontario courts have already upheld that getting a handjob as part of a massage is perfectly legal, so long as it's part of the "full body massage" and not separately negotiated or paid for, and you don't specifically discuss pay for the handjob. Even with this in place, depending on the license, customers and businesses can still get bylaw infractions for stuff like customers being nude, attendants undressing, etc. And cops are assholes so they might hassle you even if what you're doing is legal.
But all that said, some of you openly discussing all the other sexual services you're receiving is destined to to get the attention of law enforcement and it's foolish to expect otherwise. I'm glad some of the well reviewed parlors are having such great success in part because of your reviews and comments. These women deserve to be treated well and also well paid for what they do. But comments openly mentioning all the fun you're all having is going to get a the boys in blue to crack down on massage parlors again. Every few years there's a rush of new places opening, then a legal crack down, most places close down, a few years of very few options, then a rush of new places opening again. The cycle repeats. We've got tons of options right now and it's great. But I'm concerned if we don't smarten up it's gonna get real bad, real fast.
Just my two cents.
