Specifics on me: I've never been married and have no , so there's no residual drama in my life from previous relationships. I was raised mostly by and around women, so despite my inherent masculinity, I have a profound respect for women and consider myself a humanist first and a feminist second. I don't really believe in traditional gender roles (or traditional constructs in general), and am very unconventional and progressive. In short, I am a renaissance man who is attracted to strong, intelligent women, and although my profile parameters indicate someone within 50 miles of where I live, if the right exceptional woman crosses my path, those parameters would become flexible. Sexually, I'm very take charge and dominant while insistent on mutual enjoyment and consensual play. My biggest turn on is giving a woman an orgasm; a very powerful talent that requires empathic presence of being and an attention to the subtle non verbals your partner is giving off. I am open minded and naturally curious, so explorations of kinks and fantasies are always welcome. Personally, I am a very unconventional person and free thinker, still very rebellious in my 40's, but in more philosophical and principled ways. I consider myself moderately, highly intelligent, and I have that self-view from both the information, art, and conversation that I crave and that people I considered much smarter than I have told me as much in honest -- sometimes intoxicated -- moments. I've grown comfortable in my skin as I approach the second half of my life, and am drawn to the like.

My Ideal Person Intelligent, open-minded, progressive, strong, independent, sexual, sarcastic, warm, funny, can hold her own... these are just a few of the traits I look for and admire. In short, a dear friend and formidable "adversary"...
