1 – What do you need most right now, a friend or a lover? Why?

I need a friend more than a lover right now. I have two amazing people in my life that I love romantically, but I think a friend is required, one that can keep me accountable to myself, but also to vent with about my life.

Actually sounds like I need a therapist more than anyone else.

2 – What song do you not know the lyrics of but you like to sing anyway?

Singing? Me? Really funny.

3 – Tell 3 things you recommend to watch on Youtube.

Right now, I’m into a few things on Youtube, but my current default is watch making & servicing, silicone moulds & resin dice making, and either lawn care or virtual cycling. I watch a wide range of things, and these are the main ones on rotation at the moment.

4 – What cartoon (include animated series) do you still watch?

I don’t usually watch and animated series. Occasionally I might go back and rewatch something like Futurama.

5 – Have you conquered one of your fears? What was it?

Not really, I have so many fears.

Bonus: At this point in time, would you rather travel or focus on your career? Why?

I haven’t done much travelling, so I would much rather travel at the moment. I need to see the world, do something different. I’ve been so focused on the family and work, that I have forgotten how to look after myself, and some travel would certainly help with that, explore the horizon and see different parts of the world.

1 – Have you purchased cryptocurrency (e.g., bitcoin, ethereum, dogecoin, etc.)? Which one?

No I have never purchased any, however a few years ago, a friend loaned me a bitcoin miner which I hooked up to a Raspberry Pi, I did mine some Bitcoin, but not much at all, maybe about $10 back then, it may be worth about $50 now if I still had access to it. I think I lost the wallet password.

2 – Have you been scammed by cryptocurrency?

I’ve received many an email claiming to have my caught me masturbating using my webcam, and “threatening” to expose me to my family. However they would choose not to do so if I sent them $750 or so via Bitcoin to some random address. I’ve never sent them any Bitcoin, nor have I been exposed to my family or friends.

3 – Where are you now?

As I write this, sitting in my home office.

4 – Where do you want to be?

There are many places I would like to be, in bed snuggling with Missus Sub, or in bed snuggling with my new girlfriend, Lil Kitten.

5 – How many hotels have you been kicked out of?

I live a pretty boring life, none!

6 – How many bars have you been kicked out of?

Again, I live a very boring life, none!

Bonus: What is in the boot/trunk of your car?

An umbrella, a few shopping bags, and a picnic blanket (I think?)

1 – What do you wear to sleep in?

For about 1% of the time, I’m as naked as the day I was born. The rest of the time I’m wearing either a boxer trunk or briefs.

2 – Do you ever walk around your own place naked?

With two children, I’m generally clothed to some degree. Before children, I occasionally was bare-ass naked.

3 – Have you or would you ever answer the door naked?

The only reason I would do so is if I had planned for some sexy times with a partner and they knew about it before hand. Consent is key.

4 – What part of your body do you like to be on show? Why?

I’m generally not comfortable being naked. I’m not an exhibitionist, but if I had to show one body part, it would be my pierced penis.

5 – When sunbathing how much do you bare?

What is sunbathing? I’m as white as a piece of paper under my clothes, and the slightest amount of sun turns me lobster red. I’m generally covered in at least t-shirt and shorts.

6 – Have you or would you bare all on a naturist (nude) beach?

I have thought about baring all on a nudist beach. However being ashamed of my body it would need to be near enough to deserted, which means cold, overcast weather if I were to do it.

7 – Have you ever flashed your bits in public? If not would you if it turned your partner on?

Nope. I’m not sure I could bring myself to do it. Although I wouldn’t mind Missus Sub flashing for a Sinful Sunday or Scavenger Hunt photo.

8 – Have you ever given a striptease or has anyone given you one? Did you enjoy it?

Unfortunately I have never given or been on the receiving end of a striptease. In my mind, I would certainly enjoy being given a striptease by a lovely lady.

9 – Ever gone skinny dipping? Alone or with others?

The only skinny dipping I have done, was in a private hotel hot tub once with Missus Sub, my former poly girlfriend and her husband. It was an enjoyable experience, lots of touching and feeling each others bodies, heaps of kissing and maybe even a naughty touch or three.

10 – Do you like to look at naked people or do you want show off your nakedness?

I’m very much more of a voyeur than an exhibitionist. I love the naked female body in many shapes and sizes.

Bonus: Sexually speaking, what’s the furthest you would go with a partner in public? Have you had sex in public?

What’s the definition of public? In a large park, Missus Sub and I found some trees in a somewhat secluded area and had sex amongst them, if someone walked near they would have seen us, but unless they were close, they wouldn’t have suspected what we were up to. We weren’t full on naked, mainly pants down to our knees and skirt hiked up, but we weren’t fully naked.

1. Do you prefer:

• Parties
• Intimate get-togethers
• Playdates
• None of the above; they’re all overrated

While I can deal with crowds, the introvert in me much prefers a smaller event, so a small intimate get-together or a playdate is my preference. I’d rather have a conversation in smaller groups rather than being all overwhelmed.

2. What is your preferred bedtime?

• What’s a bedtime?
• Between 8:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.
• Early to bed early to rise
• Late night party animal and/or insomniac

I don’t really think I fit into any of those categories. I do prefer a later bedtime than 10pm, but then I’m not a party animal or insomniac. I just prefer the quiet of the evening, after the kids are asleep I can do as as I please, watch what I want, have adult time uninterrupted.

3. Do you and your significant other go to bed at the same time?

At the moment, no. One the kids insists on my Missus Sub going to bed much earlier than I. Not really sure, but while it is nice to be awake alone at night, it would be nice to spend time with Missus Sub at the same time.

4. Do you compliment your significant other? How often? Do they return the return the gesture?

Compliments are not one of my giving love languages. I do my best where I can though.

5. Do you and your significant other share:

• More hobbies together than not
• Less hobbies in common compared to all your hobbies
• All hobbies– we like and do the same things
• Nothing at all. We enjoy completely different hobbies.

We have one or two hobbies in common, but otherwise our hobbies generally don’t cross paths, except when Missus Sub craft supplies cross into my garage territory.

Bonus: Do you go walking on a regular basis with your significant other? Research says doing this activity together brings you closer.

It really would be nice to do things like this together, but the children aren’t interested in walking and they would complain, but we’d have to end up at some park with the playground, and unfortunately the kids won’t entertain themselves so we could observe from a distance walking in circles.

1. Does your smartphone have a grip on you? In one hour, how often do you check your phone?

• a. I am glued to my phone. I check it every 1-2 minutes; it is satisfying.
• b. I check it 1-2 times per hour.
• c. I check my phone only when I get notifications, and I don’t get many.
• d. I check at lunch time and at the end of the day mostly, unless I get a notification.

Unfortunately I have let my phone overpower me. I am generally somewhere between an a. and b. user. I’d probably check it every 5-10 minutes, especially when I’m not engrossed in something work related.

2. Israeli spyware Pegasus* marketed and sold to other governments is used to spy on activists, journalists, and political leaders. Do you believe hackers are monitoring your smartphone?

I personally don’t think I am interesting enough for the government to spy on me. However the claim by Google to say that they aren’t listening to the conversations I partake in does seem suspicious when 15-30 minutes after a conversation that I get targeted ads for related topics when browsing the web or in apps I’m using.

3. When in flight, on an airplane, do you put your phone in flight mode?

I don’t fly very often. But I prefer turning the device off, it is far less tempting when it is completely shut down than in flight mode.

4. What is the lock on your smartphone?

• a. facial recognition
• b. fingerprint
• c. numerical code
• d. pattern
• e. I don’t lock my phone

I’m a numerical code person. But the code is based on patterns rather than the numbers. I don’t trust facial recognition, and I am contemplating removing the fingerprint that I have used in the past.

5. Do mobile phones interfere with your relationship(s)? How?

I certainly think that they have affected every relationship that I have had. They certainly cause me to be distracted most of the time and I’m always thinking that I am missing out on something, or that my phone vibrated with a notification. I wish I could get rid of the damn thing some days.
