Yes, that's a biggy. I think chemistry covers a lot of it really, plus I find shared kink interests a good place to start when seeking a sub.

Down to earth, compatible, right body language, looks good to me, nice personality, a good amount of intelligence, fun, dirty minded and kinky, likes anal and also hates onions. True and genuine are only concepts and as such are meaningless. Try thinking in terms of compatibility instead. | ||||

So I'm guessing 'good sense of humour' is not high on your ideal subby list

It's impossible to define, or perhaps I just hate definitions (the principle of "to define me is to limit me"), or maybe it's that so many of the factors that I look for in a sub are so difficult to define; or Take 2. Poor eyesight (white stick and Labrador optional), no sense of smell, skin like rhino hide, fragrant; or Take 3. Intelligent, tolerant, open-minded, funny, self-deprecating, cute (which is my definition of cute - so nobody will ever understand it), interesting, compatible kinks, fearless. Take your pick, but probably version 3 is closest to the mark. (Or revert to the beginning, dependant upon the phas of the moon.)

Being one step ahead of me at all times, and being able to pick me up on it when I try (in vain) to outsmart them. "When you're going through hell, keep going." | ||||

Bugger, I forgot that one. Maybe that's where I've been going wrong. "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking up at the stars." - Oscar Wilde | ||||

I like women who are a good laugh, have a brain, comfortable in their own skin, call a spade a spade and have their own sense of style. Oh, and smell nice is good too. | ||||

Essentials:
Sense of humour
Intelligent
Not bigoted
Kinky (to 'nilla folks eyes anyway) Actually when I think about it, that pretty much sums it up. There's not even a 'nice to have' list. I'm more interested in what's between the ears than anything else. Though nibbleable boobs, spankable arse and a neck sensitive to both stroking and biting is a real plus.
