You can call me Steven. I am currently single and looking for a long term relationship, but am open to a variety of different types.

My Ideals: I enjoy taking on any of a number of roles, such as master, owner, sadist, or predator, depending on the chemistry with my counterpart, but at my core I am simply dominant. That is a unifying theme that permeates throughout my life: I always strive to be in control, a leader & mentor to those around me, and when possible, to dominate the competition. I am driven by the psychological aspect of kink, more than anything else, and am a natural emotional sadist - although I do come with a sweet and sensitive side. I am particularly interested in ownership and total power exchange. Overall, my desires would be best served by a slave who enjoys being degraded. I would also be particularly delighted to adopt a puppy girl.

My Situation: I have almost a decade of successful experience, primarily as a master, and can confidently say my exes would all vouch for me. /u/bondage-girl has volunteered to be such a reference and a resource, should any potential partners have an interest in that.

At this point, I am hoping to meet someone with whom to continue building this type of dynamic. I can host, have my own transportation, am DDF and am financially stable. I'm in the triangle area of North Carolina but am willing to travel for the right partner. I am 5'11 and have an athletic build which I am avidly working on improving.

My Actions: I'm a passionate scientist, currently studying the relationship between the chemistry of life and the way we think and feel. I am at an internationally distinguished institution, wherein I actively participate in community outreach and am working towards my doctorate. I have already received broad recognition for my work, including my invention of a new assay. Thus, my career is quite important to me, but I maintain an active life outside of it. As a person, I am generally pretty down to earth and goofy.

You can often find me out in nature, reading a book (1984 is a favorite), at a slosh or other social, or at the gym. I'm often listening to music, audiobooks or podcasts throughout my day as well. As time allows, I am exploring private pilot training, admiring local art galleries, tinkering in the maker space, and competing in races. If you (perhaps literally?) run into me, expect a witty and dark sense of humor.

I am prepared to fully validate all of the claims made in this post with a combination of photographic proof and public records (yes, even the government will vouch for me ;)), should we get to the point of de-anonymizing.

If this post is still up, I'm still looking and can't wait to hear from you!
