In my honest opinion there is no difference at all as long as the therapist is a real professional and gives a traditional ("normal")massage. I prefer and feel more comfortable with a therapist of the same gender (be he gay, too, or not) to handle my body, rather than having my body treated in the open by a giggling group of women making fresh comments on this and that, within earshot from other people, or poking my body in an offending way for the "fun" of it.
If you, however, are implying something else, as did the taxi driver on my way from Amoaras Spa, that is not my business, doing or problem - but the question was of course expected.
Haved a nice day!
