| I am a CodePoet and Wordslinger. Or in more mundane terms, I write software and I write a variety of things with text. A few years back, I had a short story published in Kizuna: Fiction For Japan, a charity Anthology and had an article published in the Autumn 2011 issue of 2600 The Hacker Quarterly. My most recent published work combines both CodePoetry and Wordslinging, a thin tome called Programming Concepts for the Non-Programmer (available on Amazon in paperback or kindle).
I'd go into more details about my software projects but I usually work under a non-disclosure agreement so not much to brag about there. The unofficial company name I use is Bespoke CodePoetry, but I do not have DBA for that or anything.
I am very lightly into kink, but would like to learn more and make new friends while doing so.
I used to identify as pansexual, and depending on the context I may still for the reasons that I like connecting with people, not caring what gender they are, or present as. I now prefer the term bisexual for several reasons, some philosophical, and some political. I understand there are more than two genders, and I use that label to mean that I am attracted to people who share my gender, and those that do not share my gender. The term bisexual does not to me, imply a gender binary.
I think it is important to understand my relationship style if you want to engage in romance with me. It is predicated on two principles, that people are not possessions, and that love is not a finite resource that must be parceled out.
I believe that relationships (platonic and romantic) should be allowed to find their own level instead of trying to shape them to meet some sort of expectation. I just accept them as they are, and how they change over time, instead of trying to fit them into preconceived templates and be all bent when the relationships aren't "shaped" right.
Since practicing this, I have been pleasantly surprised at the results.
I believe all relationships should be based on CHOICE, and not upon OBLIGATIONS.
I do not care for the "friends with benefits" dynamic. To me, the real benefits of friendship are great conversations, shared activities, shared interests, and mutual emotional support for one another.
I do, however, love having sex with very good friends on occasion.
