Punting on cruise ships

[wombat42]

Does it happen ?

[DastardlyDick]

I would very much doubt it for several reasons:-

1. How would a WG advertise her services without drawing attention?
2. A very small number of potential clients
3. Cost
4. High risk of getting caught

I'm sure that there are WGs out there who've been taken on a cruise by a client, but I don't think that really counts.

[Matium]

It does but it's for women.

There are always more women than men on a cruise and there's always a large number of single, middle aged women.

Cruise lines employ "gentlemen hosts" whose job it is to dance with women at tea dances and keep them company.

Naturally, the women are lonely and will offer "enticements" for the men to see them at night.

Prostitution serves women as well.

What about girls who work the bars such as in top hotels, sitting on their own in tarty outfits ?

2,3 and 4 would surely still apply?

I always understood the male cabin and catering crew were deliberately selected to service the gay cruise market

know a  guy who had that as his last job, pro dance partner on cruiseships, any activity that is social from rambling to language classes to gyms to church groups  will always have loads more women than men, no man on a cruise should need to pay for it.

As apparently middle aged women are most common on cruise ships, have you not had one lusting over your body for free :-)

[paulk7777]

Wouldn’t work as too wet.

[sonyvaio]

yes, the most obvious place to try if you're male, is to book a massage, usual story offer a tip and see what you can negoitiate  - remember to have cash - as you can't bill that to your cruise account!!!

[jok32]

Tried the massage on a cruise. She stayed well outside reach most of the time and when I did some accidental touching she moved or moved me each time so didn't try further

[Marmalade]

So learn to dance

Ex GF gave massage on cruise ships and that's an absolute no no. They're taught to avoid the 'golden triangle and all are very aware that any hanky panky will result in dismissal and blackballed from all cruise liners.

No, on a cruise ship for the bar staff, hosts and entertainment the rules are strictly 'No sexual fraternising with the passengers'. If a young member of the bar staff is caught they will be fired and turfed off at the next harbour visit.

Been on a few cruises and never risked it,  because the price was $500 but it’s definitely on offer. They seem to be high end American women, on the ships I’ve sailed they’ve always sat at the champagne lounge or high end bar. Dressed impeccably. One cruise I spoke to a wealthy American who had seen one onboard who told me about her $500 fee.

[willie loman]

What about free shagging? anyone got some onboard stories?

[MrMatrix]

I've heard that more shagging takes place on Saga cruises as the single ladies at their time of life just want to make the most of the time available. Got a few years before I give this a go I think..

Hate to tell you, but she probably gave HE on cruise ships herself.

I can tell you that as long as you are sensible, that HE is available on board cruise ships from the massueuses / massusers . Just do the obvious things to give the clues as to what you're after, and leave your tip visible, and things will just happen naturally. You have to remember that discretion is 2 way here - the actual massage is not anonymous as your cabin number/name is known when you book.

[PeachyAssFan]

I’ve been on cruises and while the other half has her massages and spa treatments, I’m in the gym or bar. I pretend that I hate anyone touching me by way of massage (which she believes) . I’d hate to give the game away

So your missus is getting her jollies from the masseur/se while you're oggling lycra in the gym...  yeah... you definitely won out there.

So is that tiny towel or no towel for you to leave your tip visible?

She wasn't in that job when I met her and she never had a problem going into detail about sexual encounters ;-)   Might be because she was on American cruise company liners sailing out of Miami.   Emphatic about the 'golden triangle' ruling etc.

[catweazle]

My next door neighbour is a senior security officer for Cunard. He tells me that he has personally had to escort numerous crew members off the ship as they have been sacked for breaking the 'fraternisation with passengers' rules. No second chances, no warnings, thrown off at the next port of call.

He does say however theres a lot of shagging going on between crew members below decks though.

Aha!  A cunning rule set by men running the ship, all the pent up desires kept in confined quarters.

On a more serious note, if (when) they are sacked the cruise line do not pay their fare home, so a (say) Filipina girl could be put off the ship in (say) Barcelona and have to make her own way back to Manila. Further since so many cruise lines are part of the same group that individual gets blacklisted and won't be re employed.

[jeanphillipe]

careful your giving pimps ideas ! next thing you know a e.e guy will be boarding the next cruise with a stable of romanians.

on a more serious note if it does happen i would imagine the service would be expensive, they have to cover the cost of the cruise for one!

[sonyvaio]

haha - good one!

naked, no towel

just leave your money tip on the side somewhere visible

to be fair, i am only talking about European companies/cruises

Not so. I know a lot of Central Americans who have worked as cabin and catering crew on cruise ships. One of them told me of one idiot on the ship he was working who was propositioned by a gay man, decked him and was off the ship at the next port of call. Most of the crew, however, really like working on the gay themed cruises as the passengers tend to tip particularly well and, for the most part, are respectful and well mannered (i.e. treat staff as human beings and don't make advances to crew members).

Crew members need quite a lot of training and induction and serve on cruise trips with all kinds of theme. It would not be cost effective to look specifically for crew members of any particular type. The requirements for cabin and catering crew are mostly focused on speaking enough English, knowing how to deal with people and passing medicals of various kinds. Agents liaise between applicants and the companies who take fees from both, arrange visas and first flights to the ports where the new staff board their first vessels. Just to add that the hours are very long and the work hard and boring. Injuries or work related sickness are treated generally up to a point, but there isn't much in the way of employment law at sea to protect workers.
