A Human's Guide to Relating to Other Beings

A flow chart:

1. Can I have sex with it?

   • Yes: figure out best way to please it (consider the other being's desires)
   • No: go to step 2

2. Can it hurt me?

   • Yes: figure out best way to subdue it or escape from it (consider the other being's abilities)
   • No: go to step 3

3. Can I eat it?

   • Yes: figure out best way to eat it (consider own tastes)
   • No: ignore it

Under no circumstances should the other being be considered outside the context of what you can do with it.
