quick note: i'll be in the bay area in june / july, and i'm looking for someone with whom to hike mt. tam, visit sfmoma, or share a salad at intermezzo on telegraph.

. . .

i'm a (reasonably) sane and slightly eccentric biracial artist in brooklyn.

i'm poly / ethically and openly non-monogamous by nature, but too concerned about staying completely std-free to sleep with a bunch of random women; instead, i'm hoping to have a few meaningful and lasting connections with bisexual / heteroflexible women of color.

i've been asked why i prefer to date bi women, and there are 2 main reasons: 1. i am so attracted to women spiritually and sexually that i can't very easily relate to a woman who did not share that attraction; 2. i'm really very fond of: http://tinyurl.com/eight-w-m

the ideal woman would be 25-45, childless, smart, sane, creative, responsible, warm / affectionate / nurturing, cisgendered / feminine, funny, well-traveled, well-read, and into the arts / academia / social justice. bonus points for being bi-racial, bi-cultural, bi-lingual, bi-coastal…any "bi" except bi-polar. an interest in kink / bdsm, submissive tendencies, or being 420-friendly would also be majorly big plusses.

physically, i'm most attracted to plump and curvalicious women (ample t & a / thick hourglass, not obese), who are all-natural (i. e. unprocessed hair, little or no make-up, no fake body parts, etc.), and i'm a sucker for freckles and really big, natural, gravity-defying hair!

i've been supporting a modest but comfortable lifestyle as a bizness owner, university professor and / or commercial artist / designer (illustration, animation, and graphic design -- everything from magic school bus video games to hello kitty pajamas) since 1995. i've also done some non-permissional public art installations in nyc and l.a. for sh!ts & giggles.

i'm active in my community; i founded and and have been organizing an annual film festival in brooklyn since 2000.

i try to bike about 25 miles a week, do 90 minutes of hot (bikram) yoga a day, and go hiking as often as possible. outdoor activities (kayaking, ziplining, whitewater rafting, spelunking, etc.) are an important part of maintaining my sanity. i was hardcore vegan for many years, but now i'm a vegan-leaning omnivore.

i travel when i can: lotsa countries in africa, the americas, the caribbean, and europe, most of the states, and the other plane of existence which is burning man. i may occasionally suggest weekend getaways to a fire island retreat or a cabin in the woods.

i'm preparing for the zombie apocalypse. for real.
