But would someone say that about a male racer?

Lots and lots of folks that have accomplished great things and/or driven new frontiers have pushed the limits and explorered boundaries. Without that spirit, we (mankind) would not be where we are today. It’s part of some of our spirits, you can’t stop those folks from pushing the boundaries.

I suspect almost all of us have pushed some limits, some farther than others. Everyone has different risk tolerances. Just because someone has a high risk tolerance doesn’t mean that theirs is right and yours is wrong. The world needs risk takers. Fortunately, there aren’t many of them.
