I'll be blunt (as well as whatever ya want me to be): I'm a heterosexual whose ideal fantasy is MMF and not the MFF threesome conventional wisdom expects from straight guys like me. (Which technically makes me a bisexual male, I guess -- as much as the women in MFF scenarios are technically bisexual females. But I digress.):-P I don't have anything against it mind you -- it's just that I've always wondered why my fellow men have been into "helping" their womenfolk into exploring their lesbian side; is it a "twofer" thang?!?::shrugs::

I'm also a cheap-ass who chose this free-dating site above all others because I came across its questionnaires in other blogs, and liked 'em enough to want to check out the site more. At present, I'm 36 (Tho I feel like 24) live in Denver, Colorado, -- and loving it greatly, despite the efforts of The Real World and the various suburbs outside this town's city limits to make it seem hardcore-generic.

To paraphrase th' poet, do I contain multitudes? Yes I contain multitudes! Here are some:

I'm honest yet greatly value my privacy. A very shy guy who dreams of being an exhibitionist. Musically, I like everything from Shostakovich to Stockhausen, Merle Haggard to the MC5, Areosmith to Zappa. My main genre's teh Rock n' Roll, but as long as it's interesting, I'll groove to anything from Americana to Tropicalia to World Music. (I'd include Zither music if only to be alphabetical, but they don't make Zithers like they uthed to.):oP

Working out at the gym a whole lot more than I used to -- which was never. Doin' this mainly to lose weight and prepare for the kind of job I'd like at the moment, which is one that involves a mix of both decision-making and physical movement: I dunno, tree-pruning, delivering packages, or fighting forest fires. Beyond that: going way out of my proverbial comfort zone. (The handle's "RecoveringLoner" for a *reason*...):-)

Exercise, Making Art and memorizing things about Pop Culture and Current Events. In Regards to at least Pop Culture: perhaps too good, as the below will indicate.

are probably my heignt, shagginess, and lack of eye contact.

Exercise, Kindness (especially of Women), Reality (for lack of a better term), Humor, Curiosity, Desire. Maybe my computer, though not as way-too-much as it used to be...

Ideology, Current Events, Art, Sex, and Working Out. More and more, Working Out, Sex, and Art, less and less Ideology and Current Events.

shyly exercising, reading, watching a movie, or something.

I'd go dance by myself, but don't have the nerve to, or for that matter the skill...

I'm scared about this makeover phase I'm going through; scared in a *good* way...

I used to have the excuse of my obsessions -- some of which are described above -- to keep me busy. Nowadays, those obsessions aren't much of a passion, and more public ones seem to be popping up.

Even though I'm always up for a brilliant insight or a good conversation, after at least 20 years, I'm no longer leading much of a life of the mind anymore. Thank goodness; I *needed* a break, especially after the past few years... ;-P

your curiosity has gotten the best of you after reading this -- in spite of my unconscious efforts. Or, if I sound as interesting as you are. Or both.

In any event: Enough about me. How about you? :-)
