0) Height: 5 feet, 10.5 inches. I would kill to be a couple of inches shorter.
3) Do you smoke? I almost always have cigarettes in my bag, but they last me a long time. I usually smoke only in social situations.
4) Do you drink? Yes, socially. I try not to drink alone, though I don’t always succeed. I’ve had a bottle of vodka in the freezer since November and there’s still plenty left. … This doesn’t apply to wine, but I avoid situations in which I am alone and have to present an ID that still says “Sex: M” on it, so I haven’t been to the liquor store in a long time. I am uncomfortable being asked for an ID in bars, but less so because I usually am with at least one other person. With any luck this won’t be a problem anymore in a matter of weeks.
12) Relationship status: Forever and ever alone.
13) Biggest turn-ons: Intelligent and thoughtful people, conversation, shared interest in music or film, pale and smooth skin, delicate features, femininity, gracefulness, sensitivity, beautiful transgender people, collarbones, full lips, eyes, people who look like elves and faeries, kissing for long periods of time with lots of touching, being cuddled, neck kissing, lip biting, gentle but firm sex, being dominated during sex, being restrained during sex, being comforted after sex.
14) Biggest turn-offs: Hypermasculinity, muscles, body hair, roughness, unkindness, closed-mindedness, people who are not intellectually inclined, people who are not curious about the world.
15) Favorite movie: Already answered.
25) My idea of a perfect date: I believe the most perfect dates are the ones you can’t plan too much, but my perfect date would have elements of the following: an urban setting, coffee, art, thunderstorms, bookstores, learning something I didn’t know, showing someone something new, flowers in our hair, sharing secrets, Nordic beauty, awkward enchantment, whispered wishes, reassurance, knowing exchanges, and, if it goes far enough, cute little orgasms, followed by a warm silence, punctuated only by the cadence of our breath.
27) A description of the girl/boy I like: I am interested in a few people, but I don’t know if there’s one specific person who fits this description right now.
44) A random fact about anything: Already answered, but yesterday I learned, quite pleasantly, that trans women can breastfeed. Which I hadn’t considered, but which makes sense when I think about it.
