(SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: I've added a section to my blog where people can write to me who either require, or desire, an alternative to Alt's regular email system.)
I've been knocking around the big tent that is the Scene since 1995--online initially, and involved in various offline bdsm organizations since 1997. I'm more of a bedroomer than a lifestyler, and historically much more of a theoretician than a practitioner. I have very little RL play experience, and have not played either online or off in years. I'd like to play both on top and on the bottom, because I want to experience the particular gratifications associated with each. But in the hypothetical case that I got involved in a d & s relationship, I believe it could only be as a dominant--I'm too attached to my personal autonomy to be a submissive. That said, I'm currently hanging loose where all things relationship are concerned.

My Ideal Person:
For now, I'm here more for group sociability than anything else. If a relationship were to happen, possible partners with many different attributes could be of interest to me; it would all boil down to our reactions to each other as whole persons. But I do tend to be partial to those who are well-educated and cerebral, who share many of my life interests, and for whom sex and bdsm are just a couple of many things we enjoy together in the context of a broadly-based relationship.
