I've done it for a while on several occasions to ensure the reality of people I talk to in fetish related newsgroups.

That is, if people start to contradict themselves, I know they are just 50 y/o geezers wanting to jerk off while talking to a kid like myself.

I would say these threads are good to learn basic facts about someone, but would also propose that you don't get the same understanding of people by asking "what is your philosophical outlook" as you would from a thread like mine...

1) First Name? Just call me Tingkai

2) Age? coming up to 39. Thank god, I'm not the oldest one here.

3) Gender and Sexual Orientation? Male, love women (well, most of them, maybe not my ex's)

4) Race/Ethnicity? Eurasian (three Chinese grandparents, one English grandparent). Canadian and damm proud of it, in a Canadian kind of way.

5) Religion/non-denominational belief/faith? United Church of Canada. Whether there is a god, or whether Jesus was the son of a god is not that important to me. I just think Jesus had some good ideas about how to live your life.

6) Career/Job/Academia? Journalist. BA in Economics. MA in Journalism

7) Family Life? (married/single/divorced/children/no children) Living with a beautiful and intelligent woman. No kids.

8) Residence Location? (nation, state/province/district, city) Less than fragrant harbour, but formerly from the Great White North.

9) Favorite music?? Blues, rock, Laurie Anderson, folk, jazz.

10) Favorite Hobby/Pastime?? playing Civ, reading, roller hockey

11) Philosophical Outlook?? Through adversity to the stars. Who dares wins. The answeer is not yes or no, the question itself is incorrect. Just because we have always done something doesn't make it right. There is usually a third option. You can afford to lose just about everything, except your family, friends and your honour.

Patrick

31

Male. Heterosexual.

Basically, a Euromutt. English, Irish, Scottish, French, Welsh, Dutch, German. I don't know much about my biological father, other than his last name Deming (sounds German to me).

I was raised Catholic but have read quite a bit about Eastern philosophies and have a real attraction to the Taoist approach to life.

I'm in a horrible, horrible new job selling cars. Oregon has the worst unemployment rate in the US right now, so pickins' are pretty slim. I have an English (Writing emphasis) degree and a minor is Psychology. I took a lot of comparative religions and gender studies courses as well as the other usuals.

I have lived with Ms. Sneak for about two years and we've dated for almost four. We have a son, Prosper, who was born last June. As he was the result of a reconciliation, we obviously have not followed the "traditional" family path. But we're working on it...

I live in NE Portland, Oregon, United States of America.

I like just about every kind of music. I don't like really loud or grating stuff like butt-rocker metal, however.

I'm basically a homebody who loves reading and movies.

My philosophy is a pseudo-Libertarian "Live and Let Live" outlook.

Yeh I can sorta see that, but its still just way too weird. I can comprehend homosexuality, but I dont know how you can just like "both".

I mean, do you go:
Monday to Wednesday - i like men's dangly bits and having them hug me with their muscly hairy arms
Thursday to Saturday - i like women with shapely legs and nice soft bosoms.
Sunday - free for all? flip a coin? see which way your doodle hangs?

Its just too bizarre... You just can't like everything!

Suffering from ads?

No, that's not how it works.

There's just nothing in the brain the differenciates between viable mates based upon their sex. I can imagine how strange it seems for those who are heterosexual or homosexual, but it does happen. A good portion of bisexual people are not really bisexual, but are "homosexuals in denial" or sexually frustrated/confused heterosexuals. But there's also a large portion of genuine bisexuals, which like both.
