Call me idealistic, but I don't think equity and respect are mutually exclusive with a D/S sexual relationship. My ideal partnership would have both of these things: a deep sense of respect for one another as equal human beings, and a kinky, dom-sub physical relationship. Of course, sex is fluid and can evolve over time, and I don't think scripting sexual roles for the entirety of a long-term relationship is terribly realistic; the important thing to me is meeting someone who knows that they enjoy this kind of dynamic, particularly with an athletic, higher libido guy.
But sex is just one part of a relationship! I'd also love to meet someone with an open mind, a warm heart and an appetite for adventure. Being able to appreciate nature and physical activity together are two things I value a lot (I surf, run, swim, cycle, lift weights--open to trying other activities too, though). Appreciating film, travel, books, hole-in-the-wall restaurants, bodies of water, picnics, plants, animals and the moon would be nice too. I'm multiracial, and I'd love to meet someone else who is mixed and/or self-identifies as a POC, but that's not necessarily a must for me. Planning to stay in this area long-term is more of a must--though I say that knowing full-well that intentions and how things actually end up happening aren't always the same thing...but the intention would be appreciated. Openness to kids in the future would be nice as well...but really (truly) not in any rush to get there, and I'm definitely open to discussing this with more nuance/detail.
Physically speaking, I have dark hair, brown eyes, light tan skin, groomed stubble, a handful of tattoos, broad shoulders, strong arms, a defined chest and a runner's lower body. 5'8", 160 lbs. If you send me a chat or a message, I'm happy to send additional pictures and talk more in detail about myself (like my background, job, etc.).
Until then :-)...
