A Good “Hand Job” is Hard to Find
I remember a very good friend who will regularly caters to all my needs. He would often know exactly when my body starts craving for his touch, even when there is a lack of verbal communication. He knew where and how to get a respond from my body, simply by touching me.
He is the only guy I know who gained great satisfaction from watching another person moan out in pleasure or scream out “oh my f-ing god” when he rolled his oiled palms on their naked back. If you thought I was talking about something else; then, sorry to disappoint you, but I was talking about getting a good massage.
A good masseuse is hard to find, yet receiving a good massage is one of the richest, intimate, human connection two people can share. Often we forget how another person’s hands can relief us from the stress in our body.
So, we conducted a massage workshop last Thursday (7 Aug 2014) and 16 turned up for this unique, kinky yet safe event. Participants were given a short crash course on simple massage techniques and were sent off in pairs , so they could practice on their partner.
It was very interesting to observe how (with much shyness and giggling) as the group started to introduce themselves, and their body to their partner. Yet once the lights were dimmed, the room went silent, and every one focused on delivering the best they could. Towards the end, everyone was relaxed, and comfortable with themselves and their body to mingle and share their experiences with the group and trainer.

Here are testimonials from the participants:

“The trainer’s candor and professionalism made it easy for us to let go of our inhibitions, and I learned a lot about myself- such as that I’m pretty good at giving massages, it seems. :)”
And
“I feel certain that these new skills will stop my boyfriend from cheating on me.”

When I firstly heard there will have a Massage Workshop held by AFA MSM, my mind was paused for a little while and asked myself what workshop it would be. I think, think and think but I totally have no clue and can’t relate between Massage with MSM or HIV. There are some questions of “What?”, “How?” and “Why”? attacking my brain but still clueless. I believe that there are many people mostly thinking the same as me. I’m so curious and decided to participate the program.
The program has attracted around 16/17 people joining the workshop. That’s a very good response of the participation. The facilitator demonstrated and taught us on how to perform the basic massage skills yet intimacy for your love one. Every participant has to have hands on experience and practice and so we were paired up to perform the massage. Overall, it was a great learning workshop to be conducted and everyone learnt the massage skill which could increase the intimacy, connection, and body & mind getting closer to the partner. Besides with a good massage, it could relieve the stress from a long day at work and other matters. It’s one of the romantic thing I would definitely do for my partner and so sex isn’t necessary to come in for the body interaction with your partner. So sex is not the only activity to have intimacy with your partner but massage does too. For those are not into anal sex, massage would be the best encounter to do and understand each inch of your partner’s body.Smiling face with open mouth and tightly-closed eyes
A massage is an intimacy activity that won’t contract to HIV. It’s a safer but still providing sensual, intimacy and lovely feeling to your partner. Besides, it would be a bargain chip over bareback sex requested by partner. Last but not least, the workshop enriched our knowledge on how massage work well for us. It was great experience to me and am looking forward to the next interesting and informative workshop.
