The Uncensored Massage: Massage and Sex in America and Elsewhere

Human beings yearn to be touched, fondled, caressed, stroked, and yes--massaged. As do many mammals and most pets. The satisfaction of this primal urge can lead to peace on earth. And sometimes, we also need sex, and why should we be made to feel guilty about it?

In this collection of realistic stories and essays on massage, massages sometimes lead to relaxation, frustration, accidental sex, funny sex, glorious sex, even bad sex. Especially if the receiver or the giver or both happen to be naked (or nearly naked).

The Uncensored Massage: Massage and Sex in America and Elsewhere brings to you the distilled experiences of an author who has received thousands of massages from givers in different cultures . . . and has lived to tell his story. Passionate, funny, honest, and informative, this book reveals the ecstasies of massage from the viewpoint of a heterosexual male, and the story of how he came to understand the inescapability of the connection between massage and sex.

This book combines an investigative report with a personal story of experiences in American massage and reflections and discussions of serious massage issues (including massage and sex, massage addiction, and the battle between the puritan and erotic impulses inside and outside us), and it often does so with compassion and a sense of humor.

By the author of five other books on massage, including one that focuses on the wild and highly erotic massage scene in Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and China, with a few pages on India, Cambodia, and the Philippines.
