Steve, a massage therapist hailing from Kenya, gained widespread recognition on the internet due to the viral circulation of his videos wherein he provides massages to unclothed women. This marked a departure from the norm in Kenya, where massage therapists typically refrain from sharing videos of their client sessions. Nevertheless, this newfound fame has presented Steve with a set of challenges.
In a conversation with Nicholas Kioko, Steve opened up about one of the hurdles he confronts – the unwarranted romantic attention from men. He made it clear that he identifies as straight and can only discern if a woman is attracted to him based on his physical appearance.
Steve expressed astonishment at the numerous propositions from gay men who have been contacting him, offering substantial sums of money for intimate encounters. He recounted an incident where a man proposed KSH. 260,000 for a night together, asserting that it would be life-changing. Despite the tempting offer, Steve declined, steadfast in his orientation toward women.
Another challenge Steve encounters arises during intense massage sessions, where some female clients may express a desire for more than just a massage. However, Steve navigates such situations with tact, consistently resisting any advances from his clients.
While Steve acknowledges that the ambiance during massages may occasionally become charged, he emphasizes his unwavering control over the situation. He prioritizes the respect he holds for his clients and maintains a strict boundary, refraining from exploiting his professional interactions for personal gain.
