Not sure if I'm answering your question, but the lines are blurred. A legit spa can have an MPA that crosses the line and gives HE (or more), and a semi legit place may have an attendant that only gives a massage, nothing more. Doesn't have to be Asian. It's more about what services the attendant will provide, and that's not always consistent. Sorry about rambling but that's half the fun trying to find out how things go with a new attendant.
I think so. I think your view is that Asian Spas - Meis in particular - are semi-legit and you are not guaranteed full nudity/body slide/HE like licensed places. I guess I view Asian spas as just an other form of licensed R&Tug spas much like "Holistic Spas" that some have set up.
