Summarize the following:
Brainstorm all of the swear words you use, and make notes on when you use them (when joking with friends, when you are angry, when you stub your toe, etc.). Knowing how and when you swear is the first step in figuring out inoffensive replacements. For instance, you might be able to identify your number one swear word, and start by replacing just that one. Think about both when and why you swear. Do you swear to impress friends? Out of habit? Because other people around you do? You might be interested in limiting or eliminating your swearing in certain contexts, such as when you are at school or work. However, you might be fine with swearing in other contexts, such as when you are at home or hanging out with friends. When trying to replace swear words with inoffensive alternatives, you might first try to replace them in only one context, before moving on to others. You can help yourself consistently replace swear words with inoffensive alternatives if you reward yourself when you are successful. You can try a positive reward system. For instance, you can buy yourself a new pair of shoes if you make it through a week of replacing swear words. You could also try a negative motivator. For instance, you can make yourself put a dollar in a jar each time you use a swear word. Sometimes, swear words are used in ways that are far different that their actual meaning. Start thinking about what you are really trying to say when you swear, so that you can develop a list of good alternatives. For instance, the "B" word technically means "female dog," while the "A" word means donkey, and the "D" word means wishing one person to an evil place, yet all of these words convey very different meanings when used as swear words. Sometimes, swear words are used when a more precise word or phrase could be used to express a thought or feeling. For instance "This exam really f***ed me over" doesn't really say much, while "I didn't do well on this exam because I hadn't studied enough for the section on thermal dynamics" is much more specific.

summary: Make notes on how you swear. Think about where you can and cannot swear. Consider using a reward system to motivate yourself. Think about what you are trying to say when you swear.

Nod, make eye contact, and stay focused on what a girl is talking to you about. Try to understand her emotions and point of view. Imagine how she feels as she speaks, and react accordingly. Teen boys who empathize with their female peers are more likely to have girlfriends. For example, if she's upset, hear her out. Then try saying, "I'm sorry that happened to you." Think of ways you can connect with each other. Make conversation about school or hobbies. Try asking her questions about herself, which will show you're interested in what she thinks. Teen relationships often start with friendship. If you've spoken to her before, try asking if you can add her as a friend on a social networking site. If you've never spoken to her before, try asking her about a class, mutual friend, or after-school activity. Try asking, "What type of music do you like?" Notice something about a girl that you can give her a positive comment on. Don't make something up; put thought into noticing something she's put effort into. Then offer a sincere, heartfelt compliment. Try saying, "Your hair looks great today." If you've witnessed her playing a sport or creating art in a class, you can compliment her on that. Make kind gestures whenever possible. Open doors for people. Offer your help when it may be appreciated, whether it's with carrying something or studying. For example, offer to help a girl with putting her coat on. If you see a girl carrying something bulky, try saying, "I can carry that for you." If you see a girl struggling with a school subject you understand, help explain it to them or offer to study together.

summary: Be a good listener. Make friends with girls. Give girls compliments. Practice good manners.

Depending on the reasons for the hysterectomy, different parts of the reproductive system will be removed. The term "hysterectomy" is an umbrella term for all of these procedures, so it is important to understand which type of operation will be happening to you. A supracervical or subtotal hysterectomy involves the removal of the upper part of the uterus only, while the cervix stays in place. A total hysterectomy involves the removal of the whole uterus and cervix. A radical hysterectomy involves the removal of the whole uterus, tissue on the sides of the uterus, the cervix, and the top part of the vagina. This is typically only done when cancer is present. Your hysterectomy may or may not involve removal of the ovaries (a procedure called "oophorectomy"). An open surgery, or abdominal hysterectomy, is the most common type, comprising 65% of procedures. This method involves a 57 inch abdominal incision, through which the appropriate organs are removed. An MIP hysterectomy (or minimally invasive procedure) may be vaginal (where an incision is made inside the vagina, through which the organs are removed known as a transvaginal hysterectomy) or laparoscopic (which is a surgery done using a laparoscope, through one or more small tiny incisions, often through the belly button). Sometimes MIP hysterectomies will be a combination of vaginal/laparoscopic techniques. An open surgery hysterectomy usually results in a three-day hospital stay. MIP hysterectomies generally involve reduced hospital stays, quicker recovery times, less scarring, and a lowered risk of infection. An MIP hysterectomy results in a three to four week recovery period to resume full activity, compared to a five to six week recovery with an abdominal procedure. Not all women will be suited for an MIP hysterectomy. Factors such as scar tissue, obesity, and health status can all affect whether or not an MIP is good choice for you. A hysterectomy is considered a "moderate risk" procedure. Fortunately, most women who have this surgery experience no complications; however, as with any medical procedure, some complications do occur for a small percentage of women. It is important to educate yourself on what could happen, even though the risk is small. Some complications include: Urinary incontinence Vaginal prolapse Fistula formation Chronic pain Blood clots Infection Frequent urination Heavy bleeding (hemorrhage) Early menopause Complications due to general anesthesia The most common physical result of a hysterectomy is the early onset of menopause. If your ovaries will be removed during the procedure, you will experience the onset of menopause right away. If your ovaries will remain, you will still likely experience menopause at an earlier age than you would have otherwise. Additionally, after your hysterectomy, you will be advised to abstain from sexual activity or heavy lifting for a minimum of six weeks. On the bright side, after the recommended recovery period, most women report an immediate relief from reproductive pain, problems, and discomfort. Before your surgery, gather enough information to feel comfortable about the surgery. Generate a list of questions for your doctor, and talk to them until you feel all of your concerns have been answered. You may want to discuss any medications or hormone therapy you'll need, the effects of this surgery on your sex life, the best ways to accomplish a full recovery, and any other elements that you just aren't sure about or don't understand completely.
summary: Figure out what type of hysterectomy you'll be having. Understand the differences between "open surgery" and "MIP" hysterectomies. Learn about the risks associated with hysterectomy. Find out what to expect after your hysterectomy. Gather additional information.
