Profile: Hey there! You are reading my profile, and that means that the following will be entirely about me. My very favorite subject! Now, you're quite welcome to call me egocentric, but an understanding and appreciation of the self is definitely one of the most valuable things for any individual to have. One views reality exclusively through the filter of their own perception, and may shape it only by their own ability and motivation. My actions are my sole responsibility in this world; my pleasures are my only duty, and any beauty found in the various polished facets of my lifestyle is my dearest mode of contribution. Everything that has to do with me, by logical necessity also has to do with me; an inescapable constant regardless of any other choices I may make or values I may hold dear. Really, I should be glad to appreciate myself the way I do, so bear with me if the following seems a little lengthy.One thing to know about me is that I strive to be a very rational person. I am convinced that the way to success starts at understanding, and that understanding - 'truth', non-contradiction - is most effectively attained through an ongoing process of cognition and analysis, experimentation, reduction and comparison. Logical defensibility, consistency, is the one virtue from which all other virtues must be derived. Emotion, while very much essential to other aspects of my life ethic, is not to contaminate this fundamental process; one should always retain and get comfortable with a clear and sincere perception of reality, rather than mask it to suit their existing comforts, because reality is sneaky and perfectly relentless. When it disagrees with you it will make itself known despite your best efforts and persist in pestering you until it has won any argument you have the wherewithal to give it; and if it has to settle its score with you in this fashion you will be left without clarity or comfort. I live by the principles of intellectual honesty and rationalism, and in the most unlikely event that it should seem sensible, I expect I would dare die by them. Another point to note against me is that I am really most immaturely non-conformist. When I bother measuring morality at all, I do so in personal freedom; and the more any group or individual pushes to restrict or vilify a given liberty that I consider myself due, the more thrilled I will be to take it. Emotionally I am blessed to find myself fairly oblivious to peer pressure, and neither popularity nor authority hold the intellectual weight to elicit more than contemptuous amusement on my part. This leaves the methods through which to influence my behaviour mostly limited to brute force - which is most distasteful - brute reason - which in my fashionably misanthropic opinion most of the world is quite incapable of - and my personal favorite, offering me things I desire. I delight in alienating myself from the automated and clumsily rationalized inhibitions that constitute our 'humanity', and feed of praise and indignation with equal pleasure. == This profile is a work in progress. More to come. ==  FAQ: o.0 Are your nails real? ^.^ Actually, on recent pictures, some of them are fake. I can and do grow my nails to impressive length, but they occasionally break, so I add fake ones to keep everything nice and matched or to exaggerate them even further. o.0 What's your sexual orientation? ^.^ Bi, if you want to keep it simple. Inclined to pursuit of an abstract, predominantly (but not exclusively) visual standard of beauty more than an audience defined singularly by something like a gender or age group with regards to selection ethic; paraphilic and concept-oriented qua actual turn-ons. o.0 What about your sexual identity? ^.^ I'm a boy, by all biological definitions. I'm perfectly fine with that. I imagine I'd be perfectly fine being a girl too, but I'm not. I simply do not believe it needs to have much to do with how one behaves, feels, looks, etcetera. It means I have XY chromosomes and a penis. o.0 Do you have a boy/girlfriend? ^.^ I'm structurally non-monogamous. I keep (and enjoy) relationships, but never prescriptively define them, nor agree to any limitations on either sexual or romantic intimacy with third parties. Generally, who I may or may not currently be intimately involved with will not affect my actions in a given situation. That said, I'm currently in a relationship with Izta by most definitions. o.0 Will you talk to me? ^.^ If I already know you, sure, leave me a message! If I don't, your thoughts are still appreciated, but asking me how I'm doing probably won't lead to any worthwhile conversation. o.0 I'd like to ask you a serious question and get a real, honest answer? ^.^ Go ahead. I tend to joke around with what people consider 'serious' topics, but I can generally be tempted to explain myself sincerely on any subject. I am honest to peers on principle and enjoy questions of substance better than generic comments, so speak your mind. o.0 Why can't people rate you? ^.^ I find VampireFreaks's rating system pretty uninteresting. The way it works now you achieve a high rating by commenting a lot of people rather than by having anything interesting to say or show, and I'd rather not clutter my profile with my score in a game I'm not playing. Likes: Felines, Snakes, Dancing, Make Up, Fashion, Goth, Cyber, Punk, Deathrock, Furry, Goa, Guro, Visual Arts, Freedom, Cuteness, Beauty, New Experiences, Controversy, Computer Games, Independence, Intellect, Creativity, Shock, Glamour, Clubbing, Drugs, Love, Friendly Competitivity, Boys, Girls, Sluts, Anarchy, Genderfucking, Reading, Self Development, Anime, Horror, Chocolate, Lollipops, Cow's Tongue in Cream Sauce, Cookies, Sensuality, Sexuality, Thunderstorms and the way they smell on grass and other vegetation, Debate, Philosophy, Science, Rationality, Logic.Dislikes: Limits, irrational negativity, morality policing, oversensitivity, faith, normality, authority, emotional blackmail, absolutism, boredom, claims of irreducible complexity, actions motivated by spite or insecurity. Upcoming Parties: As I never seem to keep this updated, I'll try and make it a bit more generic. I enjoy the gothic clubbing scene, particularly the 'cyber' leaning events, and open air psytrance parties, so I attend those somewhat regularly. However, I can sporadically be found at any available vaguely alternative place that plays electronic music. Favorite Music: Most of Industrial's many subgenres, psychedelic trance and electro; the odd bit of anything, if it appeals to themes I enjoy elsewhere.
