12. Consider a great many patently foolish and ludicrously risky things. I'm not saying DO them, because that would mostly be foolish, but CONSIDER them. Consider joining the SAS, being a supermodel, driving a formula-1 racing car, competing in the Isle of Mann TT, being a Michelin Star chef. Think through what it would take, would be like, and what it would likely cost in blood and money Explore them, deeply feel them, and for the most part, thank fuck you won't ever do them. Learn about you

If you have enjoyed or found these useful, maybe consider reading my short stories or books, and consider leaving a review. About half of my shorts are available for free at Physician's Weekly, my eBooks are on Kobo, and my paperbacks are orderable at most any bookseller. My novels are mostly about endearingly psychopathic girls. First read the free chapters, though. My fiction is as pithy, but has far more murder and amusingly fatal accidents

Lev has convinced me to add one more 13. The universe, this world, societies, and individuals (especially women) do not owe you respect, recognition, responses, or a point-by-point refutation or rebuttal of your opinions. Nobody is obliged to engage with your overly long, confused, and maladroit posts. If you dump, uninvited, your manifesto of a post, peppered with links to blogs and whatnot that you didn't really understand, and people tell you to fuck off, then by all means do so

@screwturn I’d like to add: don’t be afraid to wear a skirt as a man if you think it’s something you’d like, because wearing a skirt doesn’t make you less of a man.
