The Beautiful Kind

Alias: Leila
Age: 34
Relationship status: Spinster
Sexual orientation: Open
Favorite physical feature on yourself: My eyes; they’re very expressive. I also like my stomach.
Beauty tip: I think that the best beauty secret is the realization that you are perfectly ok just the way you are. Your weight, your hair, your skin, your nose, your thighs, your height, your teeth - they are all just fine. Yes, they really are. From there, you start to treat yourself and your body as if it were beautiful (which it is; I have yet to meet a person who was not beautiful in some way - usually many ways). Maybe you buy a special, scented soap for your daily bath or shower. Maybe you spritz on perfume or essential oil spray and drink in the scent. Maybe you accent your great smile with a bright, hot pink lipstick. Feeling and looking beautiful is not about creating an appearance that other people may or may not enjoy looking at. It’s about creating an outer appearance that reflects your inner beauty and joy. Celebrate yourself.
Charity you support: The local no-kill humane society because they do good, but emotionally exhausting work for beings who can’t speak for themselves; the local food bank because the idea that anyone should go hungry in this day and age makes my soul ache.
If you could take a class for fun right now, what would you take? I’ve always wanted to learn jujitsu so maybe that or an online course about the role of astrology in ancient civilizations and modern times.
What do you want to learn/add to what you already know? I’d like more botanical knowledge, specifically about healing herbs and other plants. Right now, I only know enough to be dangerous.
Did you have an imaginary friend growing up? No.
What is one of the bravest things you have ever done? I never really think of anything that I do as being particularly brave. I’ve traveled halfway around the world and lived in a foreign city where I didn’t know anyone. I’ve traveled to an unknown city and stayed with people I’d never met. I guess things like that would be considered brave to some. Or maybe just the fact that I bellydance in public (and even sometimes get paid for it!) right alongside the tall, model-thin twentysomethings with their showgirl looks and shiny, shiny hair.
Special skill/talent, what are you really good at? (non-sexual): Making things look pretty
Special skill/talent, what are you really good at? (sexual): Telling would take all of the fun out of it; I like to surprise partners by what I’m not only willing to do but am pretty darned good at
How old were you when you lost your virginity? 21? 22? Something like that; it was rather unremarkable
The last time you had sex, and with who: Entirely too long ago with someone who is probably my soul mate, if such a thing exists and if either of us were willing or able to get our acts together and deal with our commitment phobia and intimacy issues
Tattoos/piercings: Ears pierced, that’s it; I’m not really into that sort of thing
What type of person are you into? Someone with self-esteem firmly intact who neither seeks validation from others nor to convert others to a particular world view (although they will probably inspire others by example)
What do you fantasize about? What turns you on? The idea of being a private dancer - dancing in hotel rooms for sophisticated, wealthy, select clients for an obscene amount of money; after the dance, who knows what could happen (for an additional fee, of course)?
Pubic hairstyle: I can’t get into the idea of “hairstyles” for the pubic region. I trim for my pleasure, but that’s about it.
What do your nipples look like? Nice
Any regrets? Nope
Why do you think I chose you for YATBK? You like brown sugar. ;o)
