Demographic

[pinkpunani]

What is you age? What do you do with your time? Where do you work, education ect...? For instance. I live in the northwest, I spend the majority of my time working or with my family, and I work in real estate.

Everything's a secret.

 

[pinkpunani]

Not everything.

Sure, I'm game.

I am 10 days shy of being 25 years old. I am a certified sign language interpreter and I work full-time interpreting for the Defense Department as a contractor. I live and work in the northern Virginia suburbs of DC, about 15 miles (or less) outside the city. I am a total internet geek, I spend a lot of my downtime goofing off on the web! I also enjoy kayaking and going out with my wife; she and I have been together nearly 8 years.

Added:I don't consider myself religious at all. I am of Jewish heritage and I was raised Unitarian Universalist, but I presently consider myself an atheist and I'm not really into anything spiritual.

We have no children, although it's not outside the realm of possibility. We live with my ife's sister and the sister's husband; we have five cats and they have one but he spends all his time with us anyway.

I am 31. I live about 40 miles west of Etoile, in an area of wealth and privilege. I own and operate a business designing and building custom kitchens, dens and bathrooms. My non-work time is largely spent on horseback, riding with foxhounds or just hacking for pleasure. I also hunt rabbit on foot with a pack of beagles. My other hobby is growing lilies, for pleasure and for show.

edit: as we are putting religious belief into our demographic - I am a lapsed Episcopalian, disagreement about lesbian lifestyle led to my departure from the church.

I live with my civil-union partner on a small farm. I am pregnant and we are expecting the baby in late June.

I'm 29, and I live and work in and around Boston. I'm going to graduate school, working full-time as an office manager for a research lab, and have an internship as well. I live in a big house with a total of 5 housemates (including the house owners) and 3 cats. I don't have a partner; I've been out with someone new a few times but am not sure whether it's going to work out in the longer term. When I'm not doing school or work, I enjoy playing Lineage (a MMORPG) and knitting, and I'm developing an interest in wine. Guess those are the highlights...

I'm 20 years old, unemployed, and have a high school education. I live with my two roomates, but I'm thinking about a move if things with my new g/f become more serious. I am an amateur alternative/fetish model. Basically, I do everything but porn and nudes: the stranger the better. On the side I also write music for my solo project. Eventually, if the modeling/music thing continues the ways it’s been going, I will go back to school to study cosmetology.

I won't give out my exact location, but I will say Eastern Texas.

...I forgot to mention, I have a 3 1/2 year old daughter who I haven't seen in a while, but I love her a lot.

[BitterIchor]

Let's just say that I'm hovering around 30 and I live almost in the exact middle of Sweden. I write (althought not erotica and only in swedish), fiddle with my computer and spend time with my few but really good friends on my free time. I also work out a lot and I play floorball in a team that plays in a local league of sorts.
I have a university education in journalism and currently work in a local newspaper doing a little bit of everything.

I am single with no kids, but I have a lizard that I treat better than most parents treat their kids.

Just copy and pasting this from my publishers profile - pardon the lenght!!!

I will be 30 on the 30th of May. I am originally from Cape Town, South Africa, but have been living, loving and learning in the UK on and off for the past 10 years. We relocated here officially 9 months ago and we stay about 20 minute north of London… near enough to still be part of London, but far enough to enjoy the “family-life” atmosphere of suburbia.

I have been with my husband for over 10 years and married for 6. I have a 4 going on 14 year old daughter, who is my Muse when all else fails to inspire. Being a parent has been the biggest joy in my life. (It has and continues to be also the most challenging and difficult part) and She has taught me a profound amount about myself and life in general. I have known that I am bisexual for as long as I have been conscious. I embrace it, I celebrate is, and my life partner respects, supports and acknowledges my need for women. I adore women. Did I mention I adore women? It is my firm belief that each hot-blooded woman should have at least one Goddess who should be worshipped and adored in all appropriate and inappropriate ways.

I am a devoted Yogi (see my AV) and fascinated by Eastern philosophy and way of life. I have a strong hereditary influence of Judaism and Christianity in my past, but I choose to reject organised religion. Having said that, I consider myself a highly spiritual being and I enjoy learning about different religions and cultures/ customs. I tend to take what works for me and leave what doesn’t. (For example I don’t eat much meat – it’s much easier than keeping a kosher home. I practice daily meditation – my equivalent of the Salah: obligatory Muslim prayers) As a family we celebrate all of the religious holidays from a traditional perspective.

I have a BA degree in Industrial Psychology and Clinical Psychology (I am a registered analyst) and I am currently busy with a postgraduate in OD (Organisational development.) I also have a degree in Business management and a BA degree in Sociology and Anthropology – current doing my masters in Sociology specializing in communication science. I am a firm believer in life long education, not necessary from an academic perspective, but the day there is nothing more to learn, then I will be ready to die. To me, studying is more of a lifestyle than a task. It is the skills, knowledge and understanding that I have gained that really makes a difference in my life.

I have my own business which focuses on facilitating integrated life-long learning, education and development. What really brings in the money is Instructional design: I design and develop learning material and learning programmes for Colleges, Universities and the corporate sector. I facilitate training sessions on soft skills such as Recruitment and selection, HIV awareness and education, diversity, personal development programs etc, basic literacy etc. I have several clients – mainly still in South africa which means I spend a lot of time on phone, conference calls on the net in chat meetings and travelling to Africa. I also write Erotica, (published author) poetry and short stories.

I have a passion for music: am always listening… compose when I have time. I am not very good at it yet, but I just love sitting at the piano fooling around and doodling on those impressive looking music sheets. Other arty stuff: I like to draw insignificant little pencil sketches and unrecognisable water colours. Strive to be an artist. I know I have the yearning, drive and emotional turmoil of an artist. But I have only recently allowed myself to claim and own that role more passionately.

Oh, and I am shy of my feet. I am seriously considering having some kind of cosmetic surgery done to them but where to start?!

:emoticon: Agreed.

I am actually enjoying this thread quite a lot - I love how diverse we are, internationally and in other ways. I think I am going to update my above post a bit.

I'm Femininity

My name is Jessica. Jess to my friends and Jessi to my lovers. I live in Edinburgh Scotland. I’m an IT analyst and I work for a well known internet service provider. I do programming and tech calls mostly but sometimes I get to play with the hardware and build a PC. Now that is fun. I am a lesbian and my partner has been in the East for 2 years “finding herself” We see each other every other month. Long-distant relationships are not the best so a while back we decided together on an open relationship. And then I fell in love lol. Ask Nirvana if you don’t understand. Or ask me as I am the first to admit my infatuation. I have been warning people for as long as I could type about online relationships and cyber love and here I am up to my ears in longing. I would hate to be the kind of person to not say how I feel so I say it as much as I can which gets me into trouble more often than not. I have two Labradors with whom I spend my life. We share food and watch TV together and weekend we go hiking.

Ok.. a little about myself

I am 28 and have worked in the health insurance industry for the past 6.5 years. I would love to go back to school at some point and earn a degree, though I am not sure what I would like to do (sad isn't it?). I'm sure I will figure it out someday. At one point, I thought about becoming a teacher but realized that career was just not for me. Though the thought of having summer vacation again is appealing! LOL I did start to go to school for radiology (x-ray technician) and quit- I could kick myself in the butt every day for stopping!
I am married and about to be seperated. I have a 2 year old daughter who is my life. She is quite trying at times but most of the time she is hilarious with her little antics. For those who have kids, you can understand how funny 2 year olds learning to talk can be...

Some things I like:
Reading, watching movies, photography, the beach (which is only 1.5hrs away and I don't get there enough), music (almost all kinds), internet, I like to *try* to write short stories- sometimes I get about a page written and I delete it all and start over, so it can take me a while to write LOL - doing things with my daughter, being with family and friends, tattoos and piercings, and well.. that's all I can think of for now.
