Nvacub, 80

I won't lie. I have a partner. He's negative and much younger than I and we're rather open as a result. I love politics and am definitely left of center (if that means anything). I have an interest in cooking, but I think of myself as fairly erudite in several areas (excepting sports and home and car repair). I love traveling, esp. cruising. I'm rather passive in, um, certain areas
I'm looking for a man age 50-70, who is somewhat assertive, romantic and -------. I hope he is reasonably intelligent with a decent vocabulary. He might prefer classical music to rock. Physically, if that's important, I'd rather he be of average build and, ideally, have a mustache and/or beard and be somewhat hairy. None of that's essential, just a wish list. Oh, and if he doesn't love animals, he and I will not get along. I'll save the rest for conversation.
