Date women from United States / Arkansas / Bentonville, 54 year old

Date a woman from United States. I am recently widowed, my husband died 10 months ago, and I am looking for friendship and companionship, in a long-term relationship. My family is very important to me and we try to spend as much time together as possible. I hope that I will meet a compatible man and he can become part of whatever the rest of my life is going to be.
I had 31 years with a very good man, so I might tend to be a little choosy. I think by now I know what I like and do not like. I'm not shy about saying how I feel about most things either. However, I need a man that is up to the intellectual discourse and can have a lively discussion without thinking I am angry or becoming angry himself.
I believe honesty is vitally important to any human interaction, and certainly too any intimate relationship. So in the interest of total honesty I have to tell you that I am a transwomen. I have struggled with this for some time. I have put it in and taken it out of this profie. This time I'm leaving it in. I transitioned in 1980 and had SRS (sex reassignment surgery) in 1984, when I had my birthotrecords amemded and became legally a woman. Obviously, I dont have to tell potential suitors and they could not tell my history if I didn't tell them. But eventually it would come out, possibly ending badly. So I just prefer to be honest up front and if I offend you sense of balance with the world, just pass me by. I am just an ordinary woman looking for what most people are looking for: enough food, shelter, and someone to share it with. My sister says I'm the girly girl and she's the tomboy!!
Oh, and I do not care for football, if you like it that is fine but it is not something we would ever share. Growing up in the south I've had to tolerate it and Providence saw fit to put me down in a family of football playing' and watching' men! No actually, I hate it! The whole business and culture that surrounds it. I am very liberal and tolerant in my thinking in most areas but this one.
I have to have a man that has compassion for all people and animals, with a strong sense of justice and equality for all. Looks dont matter to much, because real long-term erotic attraction comes from within.

Date someone special from Bentonville, United States. I would love to have a partner in life. I am able to take care of myself, do not plan on having any other children (unless he has some)...so I am looking for someone to spend time with. Someone who will enjoy me and I can enjoy them. I enjoy people and have quite a few friends. I like to do activities in the community and run into people I know. I don't have to do anything dramatic to have fun, but I do like to be on the go a lot. My job keeps me very busy and I like that. I like to keep on an even keel though. There is a fine line to being busy and feeling frantic. I do not like to feel frantic and stressed. I really need to have peace in my home. I hate fighting. I like to discuss things, but don't understand why things have to get ugly. Well enough about me.
