I starting going to strip clubs in 2001ish, in my mid 20's. Initially it was just to satisfy my intense interest/fastination (later fetish) with fake boobs. As far as I knew, strip clubs were the only place I could have "hands on experience" with breast implants, and I was not disappointed! When I got married, I promised myself I'd the strip clubs. That lasted about one month.
I did try going to an escort once in my early or mid 30's. I had a nice enough time, but the guilt of being dishonest to my wife was way too much, so I didn't try again for a long time.
Later, around 2017ish, I went to my first massage parlour. Prior to this point, I had the wrong impression of the MP scene - I incorrectly thought it was all very dodgy, dirty, and illegal. And very very dishonest to my wife. Yet, I found myself in Montreal for work, where it somehow didn't seem dodgy, dirty and was somehow more obvious to me that it was legal, so I gave it ago. Coincidently, the attendant was from Toronto, and she was surprised to learn this was my first time. "Why don't you go to the parlours in Toronto? They're way nicer than here." This came to me as such a surprise. Eventually, I did go to Pure for the first time, and holy fuck was I impressed. Apparently the dishonesty part mattered less, though I did (and still) maintain a strict no full service rule. I simply cannot subject myself or my wife to an STI.
Since I had a self-imposed budget of no more than $200 per month for the strip clubs, after that first MP experience I decided I had better maintain that budget even for the now expanded 'hobby' - or else I'd blow everything! That basically meant I could either go to the SC a few times a month, or the MPs once. I kinda liked that restriction, making both forms of the hobby all the more special. I still like SCs. I love the hunt. I love seeing all the girls. I love getting a read on their vibe before getting dances, something you can't really do at a MP. Of course, I also love bodyslides and Russian finishes more than anything on this planet. Both have their perks! I have tried a few more SPs since, but as someone who doesn't want full service, MPs are honestly good enough. Actually, more than good enough - I prefer them because the venue is always a lot more predictable.
When the pandemic started, that obviously meant no SCs for a while. I still went to the MPs, but rarely. Getting the chance to "sneak away" suddenly became difficult too. Unfortunately, that aspect of life hasn't changed since covid restrictions went away. It is now so very very rare I get to partake. Just as well that it's rare now, as my income has never recovered since covid. Now I look back at that $200 budget as a luxury of the past!
I've been back to the Rail a handful of times since the pandemic, first time back was only a year ago. I'd go more often, but again sneaking out and coming home smelling like dancer isn't an option anymore (somehow the pandemic made my wife a night owl... doh!) Maybe once every couple of months I'll manage to get to an MP. Though, as I type this I realize that's not true. It's way less frequent than that! I had to look it up, my last MP was in
July with Valerina, and before that... I don't even remember!
I'm really jonesing for an MP experience. Alas, I do live in a sexless marriage. We love each other very much, but we just don't do it for each other in the intimacy department.
