Turkish Disgrace
"When the massage guy asked if I wanted to turn around, I said yes, expecting a massage on my feet, a bit on the front part of the leg maybe and then the neck. Normally when I turn over, the massage therapist does not look. In this case not only did he look, he also removed the towel completely when I was lying there facing him. I felt exposed and very uncomfortable. He then covered a tiny part of my breasts, which was useless, because afterwards he touched my breasts anyways saying that he was only 'putting oil.' I don't think he needed to oil my ENTIRE breast...

Going back to the massage, I was very nervous. He started massaging my neckline, and then quickly groped one of my breasts. I grunted, very close to snapping, when he quickly answered it was only to 'oil it.' I wanted to scream... If that is normal in Turkey, and I am the weird one here, then I won't be returning to a hammam in Turkey, ever." — MiaoBCN via Trip Advisor
