Jim

I'm a white, American male twenty-something college student. I'm over 6' tall. I'm scared of heights and roller coasters, and spiders. I am not scared of any other animals or the dark. I like meeting new people. I like Indians baseball, and Cleveland teams in general. I like yard games (like croquet and bocce) and bar games (like pool and darts) board games, and drinking games. I am no good at beer pong. I like dogs more than cats. I like poetry by Blake and Poe and Coleridge. .A Note on Beards: I have gotten a lot of negative responses from the opposite sex based on the large beard I have. I just want a chance to defend my face. I believe men grow beards because we are supposed to. I think our faces are designed for it, and without one we look like ugly women. Throughout history, bearded men have been regarded as healthier, more cultured, and more heroic than unbearded ones. Short hair and a shaven face is a quality the Roman Empire started and forced on its citizens, as a mark of servitude and loyalty. To grow a beard is an ultimate expression of masculinity and freedom. So please don't write me off just because I don't look like everybody else; maybe they are the ones following a fad. Plus I keep it very soft and clean.
