Husband thinks I should open a massage parlour

Dear Pastor,

I am 23 years old and I am a masseuse. I have been with many guys and they enjoy when I massage them. This man who has become my husband calls me a bad girl.

I don't deny that I was bad and I told him so. But I have dropped my many bad ways since I met him. If my husband knew me in times past, he might not have married me because I have never gone with a man who regretted meeting me.

I have learned to massage every part of a man's body, from his hands down to his feet and even his toes. I know how to turn my husband on by massaging his penis. I enjoy hearing him groan and satisfying him. Sometimes when I get him to climax, he is so relaxed that he does not have to have sex with me; he falls asleep. When I did that to him the first night and he fell asleep, when he woke up he asked me what I had done to him.

At present I am not working and my husband is encouraging me to open a parlour to teach young couples how to enjoy their partners. I don't know how you feel about that. Not everybody is exposed to these things.

Is there anything wrong with sensual massage?

Initial Withheld.

Dear Writer,

My understanding is that lots of people who call themselves masseuses and have parlours, what they are actually running are sex shops. But if you are a masseuse and you wish to operate something that is legal, you should receive a licence and be able to prove that you are not running a sex shop. I am not absolutely sure what you have in mind. Perhaps you can discuss your plans with a sex therapist. I wish you well.
