Just like water…

I've drawn parallels between women and water, and I've returned to this idea since my adolescence: the more I live, the more firmly the concept takes hold!
It can also work for women in relation to men, provided the necessary substitutions are made.
It's not suitable for celibates.

Just like water:

1. …women are extremely important to men: it is not natural to live without water;
2. …some people drink more, others drink less;
3. …it's natural to take a shower every day. At the very least, at least one a week;
4. …raindrops are all different, but there's no way to find one drop more beautiful than all the others! Each one has its own unique qualities! (This is because I can't stand it when desperate people claim that this or that woman is the most beautiful in the world… that absolutely doesn't exist!!! Beauty is subjective, and aesthetics is NOT an exact science… I vehemently reject such nonsense!)
5. …there are those who extend their arms when it rains, but they will NEVER be able to catch ALL the drops;
6. … there are those who want to protect themselves from the rain, but even indoors, sometimes a stronger wind causes a few drops to splash onto our skin;
7. …you can drown if you don't know how to swim;
8. …you can drown even if you know how to swim!!!
9. …you could choke on a glass of water;
10. …you can use a glass of water to help dislodge other objects from your throat!
11. …it's so common: you can even choke on your own saliva!
12. …generally, cold water is drunk and hot water is used for bathing, but nothing prevents you from doing the opposite… it's a matter of personal preference;
13. …over time, the noise from the leaks becomes annoying;
14. …contaminated water will definitely make you sick;
15. …the waves that break the hardest are usually the ones that pull you further out;
16. …the world wouldn't exist without water!

I think I'll dig a little deeper…
