2. Ladies don't chew gum.
3. Ladies don't walk in public holding a cigarette.
4. Ladies don't drink beer from a can.
5. Ladies don't wear diamonds during daytime. (Pearls are fine.)
6. Ladies don't wear more than 13 items at once.
7. Ladies don't telephone men. (Hence the term gentlemen callers.)

9. Ladies listen.
