Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print. Never use a long word where a short one will do. If it is possible to cut a word out always cut it out.

Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

I don't like to use the words 'real women,' honestly. I like to use the word 'woman.'
