And as long I'm being waspish (because women with opinions are bitches while men with opinions are assholes, I mean, opinionated)....
I'll modify number 8, too.
I know plenty of women my age who have undergone midlife crises that are quite a bit like the ones men go through. Again, I think it's a matter of economics and how you've spent your life. By the time you hit your 40's and 50's and realize that you've worked for most of your adult life, well, everything gets cast in a different shade of pale. Things no longer satisfy.
At least that's why I walked away from a ridiculously lucrative career.
