MassageParlors.org is a controversial website that is designed to assist users in finding massage parlors that offer “happy ending” massages in their local area.

The term “happy ending massage” refers to a massage that ends with a sexual act performed by the masseuse on the client. Although this is a common practice in many countries around the world, the actual transaction of paying someone for a sexual act is considered prostitution and is illegal in most states across the country. However, technicalities and loopholes are typically exploited to avoid risk of criminal prosecution. The actual sexual act is made out to be an action carried out by “two consenting adults” as opposed to a service performed for a fee. In order for the masseuse to be compensated, they will ask for an additional “tip” of a specific amount of money before the two adults “consent” to the sexual act. Because of the nature of these technicalities, the actual “happy ending” referred to cannot be considered part of the massage and therefore cannot be advertised. This leads to a challenge for people who are seeking such services, making it nearly impossible to tell whether a massage parlor, or masseuse, offers a “happy ending” with their massage. Traditionally, the only way in which a potential client could find such a massage parlor would be through word of mouth. Because of the complex and often paradoxical way in which sexuality is normally perceived in American culture, this method is problematic as most clients would prefer not to reveal these activities to their friends or family.

MassageParlors.org has created a solution for these potential clients by creating a database of known “happy ending” massage parlors in the United States. The site operates by giving the user the opportunity to select a location and search either on a map or through a database for a massage parlor in a specific town or city. Giving potential clients the opportunity to find massage parlors that offer “happy endings” with their massages, from the anonymous comfort of their own home, creates the possibility of bringing a higher level of discretion to an industry that requires it to survive.

In the U.S. especially, there is a large number of people who consider “happy ending” massages to be immoral and some who even believe that they encourage infidelity in married men. However, there is also an opposing sentiment that states that, as U.S. citizens are free to make up their own minds about moral issues, it is not up to the masseuse who offers the service to make the call but the client who decides to pay for the service. Regardless, the actual act of paying for a sexual act is considered illegal throughout most of the nation. Potential clients would be advised to take caution and to consider any sexual act given during a massage session to be a separate act between two consenting adults.
