Media in South China's Guangdong Province revealed on Wednesday that giving men masturbation in exchange for money in Guangdong is not considered an act of prostitution, and those who provide these services will not face prosecution.
The Nandu Daily reported that police in Nanhai, Guangdong Province, recently cracked down on a couple of "hair salons" which, aside from hair styling, also offered sexual services such as masturbation and "breast massage," in which a woman massages a client using her breasts.
After detaining the salon owners and the female workers, police found themselves in an awkward situation as a court in Guangdong Province ruled last year that masturbation or "breast massage," acts that do not involve actual intercourse, are not considered to be prostitution.
