Answer 7

Well, you're looking for the male version of that word (based in French) which is "masseur".  

Technically, I think most massage therapists would prefer to be called a "massage therapist", male or female. I am a massage therapy student and would cringe if someone called me a "masseuse".

Generally a "masseuse" or a "masseur" is an old fashioned term, and now a days they imply that they are not qualified, do not perform massage for therapeutic purposes, and might get involved in sexual conduct.  

Ew!  :)
