Bex, 26, fashion stylist, Chelsea
Woman seeking men
“Running and biking are my preferred methods of transportation. A magical Saturday night involves ample twirling under myriad disco balls, gazing at pretty lights through 3-D glasses and canoodling in chinchillas at sunrise. I challenge you to a thrift-store fashion show walk-off.”

“I can cook, I can do field surgery, and I like dinosaurs and bourbon (sometimes all at once). I’m pretty drunk right now. Whales are pretty cool. I can do a pretty good Tom Waits impersonation. Jesus; what else do you want from me?”

Elizabeth, 39; seamstress and milliner; Astoria, Queens
Woman seeking men
“I specialize in making hats for theaters and private clients. Recently, while consulting with a friend who is in the neoburlesque scene, I realized that pasties are just tiny hats, and thus, my company, Chapeau Du Sein, was born. Oh, and also, I make beer. Yup. Beer and pasties.”

Jolly, 28; hacker, photographer, speaker, nomad; Financial District
Man seeking women
“Every weekend, I find the most interesting place in the U.S. to be. In the past two months, I’ve jumped off bridges in Portland for the World Domination Summit, traded soul mates at Burning Man and learned how to be a caveman in Boston at the Ancestral Health Symposium. But last Friday, I flew to Chicago for a day to visit my family (and my teddy bear, Softy).”

Margot, 26, graphic artist, Chelsea
Woman seeking men
“In the last month, I returned from Burning Man, where I traded soul mates and danced on a shark car through the desert, participated in Fashion Week and celebrated Rosh Hashanah with friends. Yesterday, I enjoyed the outdoors by walking 150 blocks, exploring the city on a mission for all things pumpkin!”

Mattie, 24; social media coordinator and photographer; Long Island City, Queens
Woman seeking men
“I’m an outgoing and happy-go-lucky person. I love exploring the city and have so many interests that I’m happy to learn about yours. I’m a confident person—an optimist, really—that likes to meet new people and experience new things (that’s not code or sexual innuendo). I also love animals and I’m a carnivore.”

Micah, 24; founder and creative director of a multidisciplinary design studio, volunteer with Strange Angels; Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Man seeking women
“Tonight you can find me eating at my favorite udon shop, Samurai Mama. Tomorrow I’m taking sailing lessons on the Hudson on a 24-foot racing boat (I’m still learning…). And this weekend I was thinking about going to see the Connecticut countryside because it’s beautiful around this time—but instead I’m planning a last-minute picnic and bike adventure through the park with a friend. It will probably start with a dance-off and end with a nap under a big tree. I’m an experienced explorer of foreign lands. One time I flew over northwest South Africa in an ultralight aircraft, taking aerial photography of the landscape. Being spontaneous is fun, but I keep a schedule, too.”
