Why so many creeps reply to free aromatherapy massage advert?

I am certainly a man of the world and very open minded but why is it when you offer something like a massage with adverts all you get is weirdo's wanting much more than a massage? I know the deal with the stigma because of certain peoples activities, but when you make it plain and simple you need case studies for a recognized college course, why does that seem to go over these creeps heads to think they can get much more.
Does it boil down to saying i just want to work on ladies? if that's the case then that makes me look like the creep who just wants to get my hands on women in the adverts doesn't it?!

Ha ha - now you know what female massage therapists have to deal with everyday....

Try becoming associated with a senior center or a gym that offers massage - you might be able to find participants that way...just call and explain yourself

Unfortunately you get creeps answering all sorts of advertisements.
We sold our house privately which meant our phone number was in the paper. There sure are some sick cranks in the world.

Welcome to our world........ it can be fairly grubby here, can't it?!
Seriously though, learn to develop a bit of thick skin and pity the sad fools that need to get their kicks in that way. Think of a few comments you can make if that happens again- I take it you're talking to them on the phone? You can always just hang up, I've never had one phone me back yet. Or say 'Hmm, you are mistaking me for a rent boy. Easy mistake to make, they usually spend thousands on a course to get professional training and letters after their name don't they?!'
Unfortunately it goes with the territory, a male friend doing reflexology has been asked for 'extras' too- the mind boggles, it really does.......
Another option is not to do it for free- charge a minimal amount for the cost of the oils and washing of towels, then it may not sound dodgy!
