I am also on TrueNudists. I'm really only here, because I don't believe nudity *never* has anything to do with sex. I've found there's no such thing as "all" or "none" - this being the exception to the rule, of course. I'm working on my own sexual consciousness, acceptance, and positivity - though, I have a bit of work to do. My current affirmation is, "I am a fully-embodied sexual being, and I release all shame and guilt from my being." All part of my journey.

If it's for romance, I'm interested only in women. Otherwise, all friends are welcome.

Movies, theatre, art museums, cars, Formula 1 and Le Mans auto racing, golf, Chicago Cubs baseball, beaches, yoga.

Like all kinds, except for country and rap. Rock, blues, jazz, classical, funk, soul. Some favorites are Rush, Eagles, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Coltrane, Miles, Thelonious Monk, Rachmaninoff, Gershwin.

Lawrence of Arabia, Apocalypse Now, The Godfather I & II, To Kill a Mockingbird, Raiders of the Lost Ark, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Casino Royale, The Sting, Chinatown, The Bridge on the River Kwai, many, many, many others.

I'm not big on hero-worshipping. Regardless of how "good" someone is, humans are fallible, and the word hero is tossed around too easily these days. Having said that, the biggest heroes to me are the ones who give of themselves in our toughest (and most underpaid!) jobs - firefighters, police officers, military, nurses, teachers. "Thank you" to them.
