Personal Ad Response: The Beastmaster

December 17th, 2009

It seems to me that any relationship which has no room for or inclination toward jealousy must be a very healthy one. No one woman can possibly fulfill all my expectations, desires. I see having two or even more woman friends as therapeutic for the primary one. Everyone should have every opportunity to be happy.
I’m an artist, figure model, writer, swing musician (no pun intended), filmmaker and very horny person living in a co-ed clothing-optional household in Fremont. Sometimes I think I’m so far outside of the box that I can’t even reach the ribbon to open it. How can I reach you?

This guy’s message wasn’t terrible, but there were a few things about it that turned me off. First, it sounds like he’s trying to convince me of the merits of polyamory when I already said in my ad that I am poly. If he wants to get into a philosophical discussion of the lifestyle he should save that for a later email or even an interesting in-person conversation. His description of himself was good, although it didn’t really entice me. Not for any particular reason, he just didn’t sound like my type. I was put off, however, by his last sentence. Since he’s already emailing me, he has one way to reach me. This question implies that I should be giving him more contact info, and on a first exchange I’m just not comfortable with that. Online dating gives us all a few layers of safety and anonymity. Trying to peel those away too quicky can be seen as creepy.

Oh, and the beastmaster reference in the title? You’d have to see the attached photo to get it.

    Yes, I think some intellectual competence is also required apart from the capacity to ejaculate a zillion times.

    Talking about quality (jane says), did you follow the Belle de Jour story? All you need to know is in the following two links:
