I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas, have a batchelors degree from Cornell and a masters from Stanford. I lived in the SF bay area from 1981 until August 2004. I had an incredible high-tech career in Silicon Valley. I enjoy working out, snow and water skiing, walking, hiking, movies, theater, coffee(!), reading, travel, music, dancing, listening to NPR & AirAmerica, and some of the activities described below. I now live in Hollywood, Florida - near Fort Lauderdale & Miami.

I've been blessed with many great friends, and have met many interesting people on and off-line (sometimes both!). One of my best friends (and a former workout partner) is now the butchest barber in San Francisco. I've had one other workout partner since then - but he too has moved on. I'm currently working out solo about 4x a week. I travel a fair amount, so don't be surprised if I show up in your area.

I'm also very into Gay and Lesbian Square Dancing! (Some might say that I'm notorious in that community.) Do-Si-Do & kick up your heels and check out The International Association of Gay and Lesbian Square Dance Clubs.

Why "otterpop"?

Well, an otter is sort of a slim and trim bear - cute, furry, playful, and social. Also, "Pop" implies "Daddy" as well as other explosive connotations. And of course, "otterpops" are those wonderful dessert treats you love to suck! in flavors like Sir Isaac Lime, Poncho Punch, Little Orphan Orange, Strawberry Short Kook, Louie-Bloo Raspberry, and my favorite, Alexander the Grape. There's an official otterpop site (check out Whack-A-Pop).

I'm well known for my facial hair, which morphs alot. I don't think I've been completely cleanshaven for over 20 years. I've had looks including just a stache, a full beard, a biker stache (with and without soul patch), uniform short scruff, and most recently a longish mountain-man goatee & stache with scruff on my cheeks.

FYI, The pics on these pages range from about 1997 to the present. I'm 45 and still no gray hair.

Massahhhhge

One of my true passions is man-to-man massage, both giving and receiving. I call myself a "massage slut" (you can call me a "massage pig") and mean that in the best possible sense. I'm a very talented amateur masseur, with some formal training (e.g., from the Body Electric School) and lots of experience - I've been told many times that I've given someone the best massage ever, though I think that's most often from men who don't get massaged enough. I have a massage table and I'm into strong, deep swedish/sports massage, though I enjoy other styles and modalities also.

If you're interested in getting together for a massage, you should be in good or great shape (hunky, athletic, muscular) and care about your body, be height and weight proportionate, ~21-50ish, non-smoker. If you are interested in giving me a massage, be serious about massage, and know your way around a massage table and another man's body. I never charge, I don't accept offers of money, I don't do this professionally, I do it for fun and enjoyment, hence I'm pretty selective about who I trade with or work on. What turns my head are usually built guys with dark hair (or no hair) and facial hair, but I'm into many 'best of breed' types - often I surprise myself! Muscledads, muscleboys, musclebears, gymrats & bodybuilders step to the front of the line. Not usually attracted to Asians/Pacific Islanders unless they are very well built. This isn't just a ploy to find sex (that's much easier than finding good massage). I am willing to invest time and effort in building and spreading some good energy with similar minded men. Open to safe erotic possibilities if the chemistry is right.

I receive professional massages regularly (I'm happy to pay for great bodywork), and I've gotten massages from many professionals. I'm always on a quest for the perfect massage.

Calendar Man (Has-Been) ... soooo last Millennium!

I was Mr. September in the 1998 South of Market Bare Chest Calendar. I decided to do it on a lark - since September 1998 was my 40th birthday. It was a great experience, and I had a blast participating in all the promotional and sales events. I'm pleased to say that I'm still friends with a number of the other men on that calendar.

The annual Bare Chest Calendar is a charity fundraiser for the SF AIDS Emergency Fund and the Positive Resource Center - two great causes.

The 2006 calendar is available. For info, check the official SOMA Bare Chest Calendar Website.

Old Stuff & More Pics

Here are some other candid pics & and a few from a photoshoot I did for LeatherMasters.

Notes on Chat

When I'm online, I often screen my private chats. I'm most interested in chatting with real men who have the balls to put their pics, stats, profile and location online for all to see. I prefer chatting with men who are man enough to put such details online, so please have a pic, bio, and profile. Headless pics, no pics, dick or ass pics don't usually get my attention. If you initiate a private chat with me and all you have to say is "what's up" and you can't keep up your end of a conversation, I will tire of you pretty fast. I'm almost never into cyber-sex, so if you go right to questions of dick size or what I'm into, it usually doesn't impress me. I don't do phone. I'm respectful and usually happy to chat if the other person has put a little effort into it, but there are limits. It's always ok to say "hi" in the public rooms and see where that leads.

If you made it this far through my profile, I'm impressed!

Thanks,
otterpop
