When I was young, I always got bullied or made fun of because of my dad’s business.
“Yo, your dad got sell happy ending?”
“Are the girls pretty? Will they do it with me?”
Like I get why were they making fun of me but like I also want to let them know that my dad worked very hard to support the family.
For far too long, I believed that the profession of massage therapy had been wrongly discriminated against and surrounded by harmful presumptions. I want to give experts and public members a fairer viewpoint. These rumors must be addressed because they have threatened the reputations of trustworthy businesses and therapists and prevent people from taking advantage of the significant health and wellness advantages of massage therapy.
The rumors of the happy ending (having sexual intercourse after the massage) need to stop.
Nowadays, the rumors about having sexual intercourse after the massage are starting to get out of hand and it’s been spreading widely on the internet. Because of the rumors that were spread, it’s making the professionals and qualified massage therapists have a really hard time to bring business. It is because people who have never been to a massage store or a massage therapist are all assuming that those places are bad and that they should never take a step into those places. They all have that kind of assumption because of the bad rumors that were spread. I want to give professionals and public members a fairer viewpoint. There are also stereotypes about gender in the massage business industry and it’s a very common stereotype. Clients of massage therapists are normally men, and this is very common because it is assumed that there will be sexual undertones. But in reality, the field of massage therapy is diverse, having therapists that are both genders and clients from different walks of life. These rumors must be addressed because they threaten the reputations of trustworthy businesses and therapists and prevent people from taking advantage of massage therapy’s enormous health and wellness advantages. My dad who is the owner of a massage store, said that the rumors really need to stop because it's very inappropriate. He also said that there might be places that do “happy endings” but not at his place because he only wants to help people who are stressed and need something to release it. My dad did tell me that the rumors are affecting his work, but he can’t do much about it because of the rumors spreading across the internet. He tried to let people know that the rumors were false by advertising his store and letting people experience some really good offers. It works but at the same time, he fails. But that isn’t going to stop him from proving that the rumors are false.

Massage is like a language of relaxation, you don’t need to speak it, but you feel it and it’s amazing. My dad told me that massage therapy has a very long history. As a mystical system of natural healing, massage therapy has a long history. However, throughout much of history, cultural changes made it an unworthy of honor kind of pleasure. Currently, massage therapy is a well-respected alternative medicine profession that is practiced all over the world. My dad wanted people to understand the benefits behind massage therapy so he started this company because he knew how work and school can be stressful nowadays. He also wants people to know about the culture behind massage therapy. It is actually super important to understand what massage therapy can bring and not misunderstand it because it is just weird to assume something that you never even tried before.
