2. 21st July 1978, Richmond, Virginia, United States.

5. I do not consider myself gay. To me: To say you are gay is to say you are predetermined to be with someone of the same sex. To say you are straight or hetero is to say you are predetermined to be with someone of the opposite sex. Bisexual says you are predetermined to be with either or both. For me I feel that it is a case of what presents itself to me. If something strikes me right, yes. It could be a guy, it could be a girl, or it could be a neutered alien from another world. It could be polyamory. Maybe not a single person, but a group. Maybe none at all. I am not predetermined. UPDATE: Single.
6. Anything Swedish :) Any music that has lyrics and a sound that moves my soul.

Dimitar Dimitrov
1. Dimitar Dimitrov.Webmonkey, Realcutebabe.
2. 23 June 1975 in a small city close to the Black Sea. I’ve turned already 28. Another reason to ask myself what the hell I am still looking for under this heaven while the Earth made 28 circles around the Sun.
3. I live in a small town as I share my apartment with my lemon tree, my paintings and computer and books. My favourite place is into the kitchen where I love to prepare my coffee and had a sandwich. I live on the 14th floor. My favourite place to sleep during the summer is my balcony… I like to have smell the fresh air and to watch the white blue sky when I open my eyes. I added some more details about the city:)) Dobrich, largest town of southern Dobruja, in north-eastern Bulgaria. Lying about 40 km (about 25 mi) north of the Black Sea port of Varna, Dobrich is an important industrial, agricultural, and commercial center. Its industries include food processing, cotton and woollen milling, machine building, electrical engineering, and timber processing. Built on the site of a former Roman fortress, the town was established in the 15th century while the region was part of the Ottoman Empire. Originally known as Hajioglu Pazarjik, meaning “the town of pilgrims,” it became known as Dobrich at the end of Ottoman rule in the 19th century. Bulgaria was forced to cede southern Dobruja to Romania in 1913 after being defeated in the Second Balkan War. The 1919 Treaty of Neuilly, which followed World War I, also recognized southern Dobruja as part of Romania. The area was not returned to Bulgaria until 1940. In 1949, following World War II, the town was named Tolbukhin, after Fyodor Tolbukhin, a marshal in the Soviet Army. Tolbukhin was completely rebuilt after the war and designated a district center until administrative reforms in 1987 removed the town’s status as a center. In the early 1990s the town’s name was changed back to Dobrich. Population (1996 estimate) 104,074.
4. I work in a hospital in the same town as a Medicine laboratory assistant. My area is haematology, citology and biochemistry. In the process of my work I examine mainly newborn babies, little kids and patients in coma and cancer disease. That means I don’t shine with my intellect as I show it extremely. My work has made me simple and down to Earth person who appreciates a simple smile also. My time is filled with reading and learning new principles and methods in biochemistry and citology. I graduated as a Genetic engineer specialist also.
5. I am single. Not pretending to be gay, not pretending to be straight I simply like guys but they are all scared. Maybe the reason is I try to show my REAL me not depending of the circumstances and lies, false images and words. First I am looking for the person inside and never pay attention of sexual orientation and is that provoking or not. I had no frames communicating with different people. I feel sick only from cheap talks where they ask stupid questions for sizes, colours and preferences or messed up with crazy psychology terms like a fools. Brain capacity is important also as the natural intelligence.:)
6. Lol. Good question. I love Claude Chall (Buddha Bar), Aretha Franklin, Jill Scott, Lisa Stansfield, Kitaro, Nina Simone, acid jazz (Saint Germain Tourist is one of my favourite albums also) mainly, Whitney Houston, Pavement, Incubus, Vassko Vasilev (the Vanessa May teacher), Brahms, Tartini, Chopin, Vivaldi. In love with the ethno music – the music of India, arabian jazz and spanish music. Have many musicians to count on here… but if the music is deep, touchy and written by sense as the lyrics then it’s guarantee I will like it.
7. Hmmm… I am veggie. My favourites are apples, carrots, tomato salad with onion and cucumbers and little olive oil. Sometimes fish and corn. Never eggs and dead meat. Favourite drink is carrot and grapefruit sugar-free juices, sometimes pineapple. Hm… from the “hard ones” vodka with martini is poisoned combination. I may have heavy hangover after consuming of two of them too much. :P But actually I am not about heavy drinks;)
8. Not so much to say here. I am proud of accepting the world in the simplest way, not depending of the money, clothes, false images, complicated people. Pround of my friends accept me in the way I am, because I appreciate their love and patience, their understanding and warm support. Proud of I have such unique friends that make me feel alive.
9. Ask my x .(Hehehehe, been sore joke). My habits are bad sometimes. If I don’t have enough time to drink my coffee and brush my teeth I am damn heavy and my brain gets “busy signal”. I hate white sox and never wear anything than black (underwear). I can live without food but not without any water. Love to take a shower and the water to spill on my body. That’s why I walk slowly under the rain when all people run to save them dry. When I overwork I turn often into fallen angel that talks dirty and if someone is without “brain capacity” just eat him for dinner remaining his pale complexes to shine. I fell in love for the first time in my life with a girl… something that gay world will deny and will put me a dammen “bisexual” list. But I am not. Neither put some labels of everything. It just happened.
10. Tero.. Do I have to answer of this question?:))) I met him in gaydar (while I was cheking the profiles) and thought to sent him a short message:) I like him cuz he is simple and unique person. Blah blah blah . And I think we will stay as good friends :)

4. I work as an assistant/beauty/web editor in Kauneus & Terveys -magazine (Beauty & Health).
5. Happily married to a wonderful man – it was love at almost first sight.

7. I just love food and dining! My absolutely favorite is Greek food, but I also like a lot oriental and texan/mexican. Also my husband’s shrimp soup is heavenly. Basicly everything but raw looking fish and fish eggs are fine. My favorite desserts are apple or pear Tarte Tatin, fresh strawberries or blueberry pie with vanilla ice cream.
8. I have managed to alter the way of my life.
9. I have heard that my way to eat Neekerinpusu (sort of extra large Hershey’s kiss) is grose. First in eat the covering chocolade, then I suck the filling which looks like I’m sucking… you know what… and at last I nibble the bottom.

8. I had the courage to accept my current job even though I was terrified how could I ever handle it! And I have also learned to talk to people in the telephone, admitting that I get really annoyed when people call me. Text messages people, text messages! I never call anywhere unless I really have to or the person I’m calling knows me f.ex. my co-workers.
9. Hmph, difficult! But I have to say that I would not like to know you the day you loose your Mr. Sunshine attitude towards work: it’s so much easier for me to be me, aka such a pain in the ass, when I know people can always come to you for a hug and a encouraging word!
10. I got to know about Tero when I started to work for 7 päivää -magazine in 1998. Since when I became Tero’s co-worker in Katso in May of 2006 we have bonded because of common interests over our favourite tv-programs, a few hot guys and making a great magazine together!

Henri Karjalainen
1. Henri Juhani Karjalainen, alias HezZ Bilièr de Prankkari alias Svennevig Magnussdottir, alias Henkka, alias Heka, alias Heesch; and the latest nickname that one 14 yrs old girl at the horsestables gave me: Iso H (vs. Pikku G).
2. I was born to sing forever (S.Bassey) and the day was 26th of Mars 1976. My birthplace is located in Northern Carelia town called ”The Mouth Of A River”, but probably better known as ”Joensuu”. I lived my first sixteen years in Nurmes which is a little town in the northeast corner of lake Pielinen. Exact birth-time was at 9.35 am so cancer is raising on my astrological chart. My zodiac is Aries and in Chinese Astrology I’m a Dragon flying to the heaven.
3. I live in the capital of Finland, Helsinki, which some might also call The Daughter of the Baltic Sea. I share my double rental flat in Maunula/Månsas with my two cats, Jätkis and Kimuli. Maunula is a nice suburb in the middle of Helsinki. There are lots of Bag-Ladies and drunken sailors in my neighborhood. The local mall is mostly known from its 24-7 bars ”Bart`s” and ”DigiDigi”. Though I’ve wanted to visit those bars none of my friends haven’t had any interest to try those nice bars.
4. I do both study and work at the same time. I’m studying in Helsinki Polytecnic in Degree Program in Beauty & Cosmetics. I also work as a hairdresser in StyleCorner (add. Fleminginkatu 15), which is a hairdressing saloon in Kallio. I own one third of the saloon. I am also the one to blame about TeroTheReds weird and quite red hairdos.
5. I am married to my two dear smelly cats. I’m also dating my boyfriend, and my missies are very jealous about me, so I got a kind of on-and-off relationship with my boyfriend at the moment. I guess I should describe myself with B. Devereaux’s words: ”Available.”
6. I can’t tell what kind of music is my favorite. But I certainly can tell that I HATE: Santana, Girls ‘n’guitars, Motown and most of the rap and R’n’B. The commercial jingle ”Smelly Cat” is very nice song and my all-time favorite song is MaC (Mothers against Canada)’s: ”Blame Canada”!!!!
7. My favorite drink is absolutely red-wine. It does so good to my heart. I also enjoy dark rhum and coffee. Actually I drink at least two litres of coffee each day. My favorite dish is Chicken Fajitas when I get it in the restaurant Pasifico (add. Helsinginkatu 15). At that place the chef really knows how to season food. Yes, and BTW, I also work as a bartender in this restaurant every now and then.
8. I was ultimately proud of myself two days ago, when I cleaned my cat’s sandbox. It’s very nice and refreshing to go toilet now when the cat’s got new sands. ”Smellycat, Smellycat, what are they feeding you? Smellycat, Smellycat, IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT!”
9. I got horrible phone-bills. I talk all the time to my mobile, and because I spend so much time talking in phone, I sometimes forget to visit the powder-room between calls. So while I’m talking I often go to toilet and pee very quiet and nice. Actually, sometimes I have done the bigger thing too while talking. But fortunately the Nokia hasn’t released yet a ”stinkmobile”.
10. I learned to know Tero once when I was bored at home and asked my friend Juha if he has any good videos to loan me. He told me his boyfriend Sakari has a friend Tero, who has recorded all the episodes of ”The Golden Girls”. So I took Tero’s phone-number and asked him if I could borrow some GG-videotapes. And same night I went to his place and loaned the tapes. At first we were TheGoldenGirl-pals, then bowling-pals and then we started to play ”shoutbag” or ”huutopussi’” with Juha, Sakari and Tero. I remember that one point in my life I went to work in the morning and every evening we had a card-game waiting for four of us. It was very nice time. Then I wanted to move away from Itäkeskus, where I lived at that point of my life, Tero knew one cellar where I could move to live in. But it happened so that Tero himself took the cellar and I got Tero’s old apartment in the neighborhood. That way we became neighbors in Töölö.

Henri Pettilä
1. Henri, Henu (Tero kutsuu Henyksi :) (Tero calls me Heny)
2. 18.12.1974, Helsingin kätsyllä. Potra poika olin, pituutta joku 54 cm ja taisin painaa…. 5 kiloa. Onko se vauvvalle paljon? Etten olis painanut 5,3 (I was a plump kid, 54cms and weight 10 pounds – is that much for a baby?)

6. No kyllä ihan laidasta laitaan. Poppia, teknoa, rokkia.. No en kyllä hevistä niin perusta :P (Everything goes except heavy meatal.)
7. No yleensä hyvä sapuska…. Ja hyvä juoma :) Ei tartte olla aina kallista kurmettia… Lasketaanko vesi drinksuksi? Tosin jos viinaksesta puhutaan niin kai se on se GinnyToniikki :P (No gourmet needed here, everything tasty goes. Is water a drink? GinTonic.)
8. No tuota…. Mä olen aika vaatimaton…. Eli tota, en kai mitään oo tehnyt mistä olisin ylpeä :P (I’m too modest…. Done nothing I’d be proud of, I guess…)
9. Pilkin ooperassa tuossa viime lauantaina!!! (Ryöstö Seraljesta) Shame on me!! (I was napping through an opera last Saturday.)
10. Niin, eli ne oli ne Halloween bileet missä ekan kerran Tero-herraan lähemmin tutustuin. Sitten on nähty jusseina ja kahtena vikana joulua edeltäneessä perheillallisella :) (I met mr. Tero at one certain Halloween, after that we’ve met at our Family’s get-to-gethers.)

Henry Haleyi
1. My name is Henry Haleyi = Bansku = Banana = Henkka = aanrii
2. My birthdate is 071291 and I’m born in Helsinki, Finland. (Northern Helsinki, Itä-Pakila)
3. Hmm… Middle of nowhere, just forrest around my house. U could never find it without a map etc…
4. Mm… I study in Pakila College, and there’s about 550 pupils + teachers. Our school looks like the prison in Prison Break.. 8)
5. I dunno, maybe I’m single. Hah.
6. Hmm, my favourite music is trance, dance, house, eurodance, club etc… But I listen to about everything.
7. Ha… My favourite dish is… shrimp, beacon, salami and blue cheese pizza
8. I saved all the shots in the final floorball tournament (I’m the goalie). We won that match 3-0 and we won the tournament without any losses.

Hilkka Lydén
1. Hilkka Marjaana Lydén (hate my parents for naming me that).
2. 15.02.77 Helsinki
3. Espoo – hoping to migrate further away from the metropole area.
4. Work/study – too much of both. Work at the moment (August 2006) as a project coordinator in an EU project that aims to get multiply disadvantaged GLBTIAQ etc. people back to work. The bulk of our beneficiaries are hiv+ or have some sort of addiction problems. I’ve studied anything from theology and educational psychology to gender studies, am nowhere near graduating after ten years in the University of Helsinki.
5. Civil partnership
6. I don’t really have favourite music, I listen to music that fits my mood or the job at hand. This might be Grieg, Sibelius, Dvorak, Boccherini or Shostakovic, at another time it might be something like Warda, Natacha Atlas, Mariza or Mad Sheer Khan, sometimes the only thing worth listening might be Popeda or Tiktak and Maija Vilkkumaa or The Cranberries and Sinead O’Connor or The Hidden Cameras or Rosie Gaines or Tori Amos. Sometimes it’s classic like Aretha, Cleo Laine, Nina Simone… Usually anything my friend Janne recommends. For cleaning the house, and only for that purpose, I choose Skunk Anansie. My wife has a rather more narrowed musical taste, so sometimes all I hear is 80′s rock anthems and older Finnish rock, which is fine as well (when not in excess). We have managed to put together a collection of roughly 20 cd’s we both can accept, those we keep in the car for our pan-european trips (did 6000 km this summer, Helsinki-Kent-Provence-Helsinki).
7. Again, no absolute favourites. Sometimes I eat similar foods (like nepalese, japanese or mediterranean) for a month, then I’m done with it for a while. Sometimes I get these odd cravings, which I take as a sign that my body needs something and then I go ahead. I am a lacto-vegetarian, sometimes I eat also the odd egg if it is necessary for the dish. I can get real passionate about food, spending six hours on preparing a dinner sounds like a nice way to spend the day to me. I don’t drink any mood-altering drinks (like alcohol, coffee, cola soft drinks or black tea) apart from green tea and an occasional hot chocolate. In the summer my favourite would probably be my special blend of herbal ice-tea with lavender honey and lime peelings, on a wet and grey autumn day it would be green earl grey tea (this is a childhood memory, my mum used to sometimes make earl grey tea and toast for me when I came home from school if she had finished work early – there we’d sip our tea and chat about the day), in the winter I would prefer home made glögg from non-alcoholic apple cider and lots os spices, in the spring the lack of vitamins makes me want to focus on freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices. I guess I’m a bit odd, but I really like carrot juice, for example.
8. I gave the tram driver positive feedback this morning, and his eyes just sort of lit up because he became so happy someone noticed what he was doing.
9. Nothing has yet come to my knowledge that I wished I could rewind.
10. I became friends with TTR a few years ago through Petri, an old friend of mine who lived with him for quite some time. Of course we had met before, but through some misunderstandings and loyality issues and all that stupid faggoty stuff, we didn’t become friends earlier. Which I think is a shame, because he is a generous, loving, fun person to be with and I am pleased that he considers me to be his friend!

10.Pasi Kokkonen meidät joskus esitteli. Olet hieno tyyppi, omintakeinen, mutta kodikas. Sinulla on myös hieno asunto. (Pasi Kokkonen introduced us one day. You’re a good guy, very personally freaky, but still home-like. Like your flat too.)

9. Ei jymmällä. Miten noin ihmeellisestä ihmisestä voisi tietää sellaisia asioita, joita ei haluaisi. HÄH?! (Don’t get it. How could there be things one wouldn’t wanna know about so special person??)
10. Meidät esiteltiin, muistaakseni hra Kylmälä sen teki vanhassa Mamassa. Sit meni piiiitkän aikaa, kunnes jälleen tapasimme, sitten yhä useammin, aina sattumalta ja aina TTR pyysi käymään kylässä. Lopulta onnistuinkin käymään ja seuraavaa kertaa tässä odotellaan… ;-) Vaikka melkein naapurissa olenkin. Jotenkin kyseessä on samalla aallonpituudella (joskaan ei aikataululla) liikkuva, hauska ihminen. (I think it was Mr. Kylmälä who introduced us at old DTM. Then took a long while until we met again and started doing so very more often – until TTR asked me to visit him.

Mostly, I think, it was because the other boys in our school were something like I was not: they did listen heavy, but I preferred Depecehe Mode, Kim Wilde and so on – like Tero. Or all those discussions about cars, machines or what so ever, I never was interested about most of those topics. I just realised that I can talk about more interesting things with Tero. Of course he was also different from others; he was more interesting person.

Mut ikävät asiathan kuuluu elämään… (Being gay. Just kidding. Tero, I cannot really say. Seriously, the matter we discussed last friday made me feel bad, not that one shouldn’t have told that to a friend, but it was just so sad. You know what I mean? But also sad stuff do belong to this life…)

Occasionally having very much middle-class weekends in row house area in Tampere. At the moment we live two studios one in Hakaniemi (next block from Tero) and the other one in bourgeois area of Helsinki, Ullanlinna. But in the end of year 2006 we will live one slightly bigger home somewhere else…….

When I go to concerts it is most often classical music from barock to contemporary. Also I enjoy a lot of different ethnic styles, especially some African drums or such. But with friends I am quite easy-going and during last a couple of years I have also been sucked into the world of eurovision… ;)
7. Oh dear… This is easy: I love GOOD food; made with love and served in a nice social environment with plenty of time. Most of my spare time you can find me in the kitchen!
8. One year ago I stubbornly kept calling to Kaitsu and finally he gave in…
9. Well actually, YOU once told me to sometimes keep things to myself to make my life easier. So I guess that pretty much tells how much I care… :) Honestly, I sometimes think I should shut up about my stuff a bit better. Answer to the question is that I do not remember all those things I should not have told!
10.Very much grateful to Sami about this friendship. Hanging with him as “paita ja peppu” (Tero saat kääntää tuon!, Tero, try translating that!) (Tero: “a ship and a light house”, maybe?) for over 10 years he has introduced me to a lot of interesting folks. In our first meeting with Tero I got the feeling that he was looking at me with a bit of rejection, but quite soon I ended up into his people collection, probably under title “crazy bitches”.

As far as drinks are concerned I tend to go for beer as I hardly ever can resist a good Irish stout in the winter nor a refreshing Belgian (or even German) white beer in the summer. (Although I will not say no to a full-bodied red wine nor chilled Champagne.)
8. The latest cause of pride? This would have to be: getting married :)
