That must be an original Gumtree ad title, surely?! ;)

But seriously, that's really the nutshell description of the kind of woman that I'm looking for! But why, you ask? Well...

"tall"?
It's a practical thing - I'm 6ft2, and although ideally height wouldn't be an issue, it always has been... so please be 5ft7 (170cm) or taller (bonus points if you like wearing heels), and sorry if you're not...

"non-smoker"?
Again, practical, and I don't think there's much to explain about this one, I'm not going to berate you if you smoke, but I also don't want to date you! Lovers of clean air please continue...

"passionate"?
Because I'm passionate too, not only in the obvious bedroom sense, but also more generally - I want to share the things I'm passionate about with someone that's passionate about them too, and has her own passions to share with me... art, music, performance & other entertainment, food, drink, socialising, travel, languages, science, the environment, politics, and much more...

"photogenic"?
I'm passionate about my photography, and I regularly cover various events around London, mostly on the various alternative scenes (including rock, burlesque, gothic, and more)... my photos end up on my portfolio, on event websites & flyers, in magazines, and sometimes on TV... I also do occasional shoots with friends and models that I meet, and naturally I would love to be able to photograph the woman that I love, and to take her to the fabulous nights that I have the pleasure of attending and photographing... so I'm looking for a photographic partner in crime, a muse as well as well as a lover... if you're camera shy I don't think we'd get very far... but if you love to pose and dress up, have a beautiful smile, a pretty face, and curvy size 8/10/12 figure then read on...

"intelligent & enlightened"?
While intelligence is mostly about raw potential, enlightenment is about what conclusions you've arrived at while exercising your intellect. I'm an openminded liberal realist atheist (!) and I enjoy stimulating conversation about the kind of things that I'm passionate about (see earlier), not chit-chat about celebrities, cars, or sport... so if that's what you like to talk about, I'm not the one for you... but if you have something to say about Dalí or the truth about 9/11, and the courage of your convictions, then please carry on reading...

"young"?
I'm 27, and have generally always had friends & partners a few years older than myself, but as time goes on I find myself getting on rather well with people a few years younger too, so if you're somewhere between 24 and 30 that's great.

and lastly, "woman"?
Well, I'm straight and adore the female form, so I'd like you to have one for me to adore! ;)


I should perhaps add that my dress sense depends on the occasion (especially with the events that I go to), but I'm usually more on the smarter side of casual (think Zara, not Gap)... I'm half English, half Dutch (and speak a little German, French, and Italian) so if you're from abroad rather than being a native Brit that's no bad thing at all!

I think I've probably said enough for now, so I'll look forward to hearing from you if what I've said takes your fancy, and if you think you'll take mine too...

And if I'm NOT the man for you (or you're not the woman for me) then I hope you've at least had a giggle while reading this ad - rest assured it's intentionally an odd mixture of seriousness and silliness! It's always a pleasure to make someone smile or laugh! :)
