I tend to date attractive men that are strong, but also very feminine in nature. My b/f is a Libra/Taurus/Taurus triad and he is SO venusian. I am attracted to women/I like strong women, wise ones, I belong to a few womens only circles. I have a very hard time tolerating any kind of sexism, but I don't think women are better than men.

reminds me of Bjork's Pagan Poetry song,

"But he makes me want to hand myself over...I love him, I love him, I love him....This time I am going to keep me to myself. This time, I'm gonna keep me ALL to myself"

I too love men who exhibit more a blending of femininity and mansculinity rather than trying to be a walking caricature of what our society thinks masculinity is. I don't believe in a rigid gender binary and I think patriarchy hurts men as well as women, not to mention anyone who feels excluded by the woman/man binary.

I tend to be attracted to creative types--they are far less likely to adhere to strict gender roles. Personality-wise I prefer men who aren't competative or really aggressive in obtaining status or social power, who put more prioty is being part of a community, as opposed to trying to get ahead of everyone else. Physically, I like men who are perhaps a little androgynous is a way. And definitely, absolutely NO GUNS. I hate guns. i once signed up with Match.com, and among the first batch of "matches" as a police officer. I went back and foudn there was no way to filter out men who liked guns or whose jobs involved guns, so I deleted my profile!

I'm pretty fierce about protecting my sense of indivudality in relationships. Others must accept me as I am, or I won't let them in. People, especially men, who make me feel crowded will drive me to dart off into the proverbial treeline, never to be seen again--and if anyone hunts me down, I'll sic my dogs on them, figuratively speaking. Funny thing is, I've been stalked more time than I can count. Some guys seem to think it's a good idea to chase after me--it's definitely not.

I generally consider myself an agnostic, but in my heart of hearts, I'm a pretty feral pagan girl myself. Nature and animals are my center. I don't know if there's an aferworld or not--all that matters is what I can know and see exists right now. And I don't seek approval from society--I just want society to let me be who I am amd I want everything and everyone to be natural and authentic, however noncomformist with society that may be.
