Added 10/11/08: I'm not going to have sex with you! (unless we're life mates- sorry David, I wasn't referring to you!). I am saddened that I have to preface my profile with this, but I have been inundate with messaged from guys who selectively read my profile and want to get down and dirty. I am by no means a prude, quite the opposite in fact (I'm usually in agreement with my OKC tests results from in this regard) but I'm not interested in casual sex. Been there, done that. I would be happy to become platonic friends with a number of the people I meet here. However, my husband and I are bisexual polyamorists looking for a bi poly man to form a lifelong marriage. If you fit that description awesome, we would love to talk, but even if we become friends we are not going to have casual sex.
If you still want to know more about me, I welcome you to continue reading my profile.
PEACE
Roxy

Added 05/16/08: I got into grad school! I start my PhD program in the fall :^)

Added 01/05/08: Hi! Please be sure to read the "You should message me if" segment at the end of my profile before emailing me. Thanks! Via con Dios

I'm a multi-faceted unique individual. In terms of spirituality I'm a Jesus-lover but not into the organized-religion-hypocrisy crap. My family is the center of my life. I have 2 incredible, beautiful, gifted children and an amazing husband. My husband and I are bisexual and polyamorous.

I have 2 degrees in biology and am currently in the 2nd year of my PhD program in (you guessed it) biology. I am investigating the water quality and ecosystem health of the Rio Grande. My previous research has primarily focused on conservation, ecology and behavior. As a child I dreamt of working with dolphins and was finally able to do so when I investigated the effect of anthropogenic noise on bottlenose dolphin communication whistles for my Master Degree at Texas A&M (Whoop!).

I became involved in informal science education outreach and plan on eventually founding a non-profit, hands-on science camp for kids that will be free to financially-disadvantaged youth. The camp will allow students to get out of the classroom and study biology the right way- covered in mud, climbing trees and delving into creation feet first with minds wide-open.

Cooking, esp. Italian, Mexican, Greek and desserts

Dancing(freestyle, belly, exotic) everywhere- in the car during traffic jams, on table tops, in the middle of a rain storm....

Vertical dancing- I'm a sex fiend. I think when a person really enjoys something, communicates honestly about it and practices as often as possible, you just can't help getting good at it. I instinctively wanted to put this one first, but didn't want to come off as too much of a horn dog. Even though I am one. Big time. Men think about it every 8 seconds? Please, I do that while pondering quantum theory, making lasagna and singing Metallica opera-style.

Singing- I was pretty damn good before I wrecked my vocal cords (try to avoid giving numerous talks for large groups sans microphone for 3 weeks in the middle of winter while suffering from a bad case of laryngitis. Seems like obvious advice in retrospect).

making up dirty limericks and commericial jingles. I can make anything about sex.

Punning and other bizarre forms of language mutiliation. Can't think of a single clever play on words to write down, so maybe I'm not really all that good at it.

Making people laugh. With me, at me, it's all good. Causing babies to smile. and spit up.

Staying up all night...as long as I can sleep all day.

Listening and trying to put myself in someone else's shoes.

My smile. It starts in my eyes. Even if I'm totally depressed, I just can't help smiling. Joy wells up at a steady trickle with sudden surges of euphoria. Almost sounds like an emotional weather forecast.

I love to read! Taught myself how when I was 3 and have barely put the books down since. I love....

C.S. Lewis- Chronicles of Narnia, sci fi, retellings of mythology, essays (yes essays). "The 4 Loves" and the one about grief.

Maya Angelou,esp. "I know Why the Caged Bird Sings" and her poetry.

King David in the Bible. He was so real, so messed up, and yet a man after God's own heart. I see both he and Maya as my kindred souls.

J.R.R. Tolkien I have read him since the 6th grade, along with Shakespeare (favorite playwright) and Edgar Allen Poe (not really a favorite, but his stories stick in the mind.

Samuel Clemens, Ray Bradbury, Star Treck TNG novels. Charlaine Harris and all the other authors who write vampires with depth, intelligence, humor and passion.

Graphic novels, esp Stan Lee creations. I usually have something Spidey at home, in my car, etc. I have an action figure in my office. X-Men. I'm totally enjoying the Joss Whedon Astonishing X-Men series. And his new series covering Buffy season 8.

Movies/TV: Anything by Whedon. X-Files. Heroes. Star Trek TNG (Picard Riker in 2008!). Scrubs. The Discovery Channel. A lot of things based on comic books. Braveheart, Like Water for Chocolate, Across The Universe, Weird Science, Across The Universe, Breakfast Club, The Zero Effect, Lost Boys, Super Troopers, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Blues Brothers....

Music: Everything except hardcore gangsta rap, some speed metal, most country and all polka (hardcore gangsta metal polka is the worst).

I love: Mo'town: (Smokey Robinson and Gladys Knight); Funk:(George Clinton and the P Funk Allstars)

New Wave and Punk:(Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ramones Pixies, No Doubt, The Cure, The Smiths, The Clash, New Order, Green Day (old stuff) English Beat, Blondie, The Pretenders, Concrete Blond, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Peter Murphy, Depeche Mode and did I mention Red Hot Chili Peppers?)

Classic Rock (Pink Floyd, Janis Joplin, Jimmy Hendrix, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Cream, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, The Who, Lynrd Skynrd)

Hard Rock/Heavy Metal/Alternative Rock: (Creed, Guns N' Roses, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Ozzy, Chevelle, Lenny Kravitz, 3 Doors Down, Pat Benetar, Heart)

Reggae- (Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff, UB40)

Female soft/folk rock vocalists- (Patty Griffith, Kim Richey, Nora Jones)

Blues and Jazz-(B.B. King, Etta James, Billy Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald)

Classical and Opera (Bach, Vivaldi and anything baroque, Beethoven) etc., etc.

Food: All things Italian (esp. lasagna, manicotti and pizza)

New Mexican (green chile enchiladas and fajitas)

Mediterranean, esp. Greek (veggie moussaka, dolmas, gyros, stuffed peppers and tomatoes, galatobourikos, baba ganouch)

East Indian (mmmm saag paneer) Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Japanese, esp. spicy, not greasy and not raw if it once moved.

Now I'm hungry. Pardon me while i run to the kitchen....

Family Laughter Ocean Sunsets Music Faith

The infinite and profound nature of Light, Truth and Love (a.k.a. God)

The differences between perception, reality and truth

My family, esp. my kids' safety and well-being

Sex- Being part of a life-long poly family; building a permanant mostly bisexual harem with 2-4 men and 0-1 women.

home with my family, trying to unwind from a stressful week and looking forward to sleeping in until 11.

I have had sex in or on 3 buildings at my 1st alma mater. Actually, I recently realized it was 4. I have masturbated at every place I have worked at since I was ~17. In high school, I talked 2 guys into dressing in my mom's lingerie so that they could see me in a teddy. Lying between them, even w/o sex, was probably the 1st poly moment of my life.

Friendship-wise: you plowed through everything I wrote, we are >70% friends and less than 20% enemy and still would like to get to know me. Male or female, it's all good. I have discovered that I royally suck at responding to emails. I only answer a few each week/month. So if you emailed me and I never wrote you back, I wasn't trying to be rude or anything. I don't IM either.

Relationship-wise: You are a bisexual/bicurious male with a match% of 70% or more with both my husband (profile: leizynm) and me, less than 20% enemy with us and are interested in beginning a friendship that might result in a long-term three-way (emphasis on guy-guy) polyamorous "marriage" with us. Possibly if you are a bisexual/bicurious poly female or a bi poly couple.

Please do not bothering messaging me if you want an affair, a one-night stand, casual sex, cyber sex, to become my friendly neighborhood stalker, to argue, belittle, condemn, or act as a racist, sexist, homophobe, or any other type of bigot. Sorry, not interested.
