Enjoyed this, thank you. 18a was easily the best for me (men can have a similar problem!), ingenious surface and very funny. I also liked 12a, among others. I didn't know the none of the above in 14a, although I'm familiar with NOTA, but it should be gettable if you've seen it before, so that's on me. Two clues where the cryptic grammar is off need tweaking (28a and 3d), and two solutions that don't seem to be standard dictionary terms might be unfair to the solver. Sound overall and good fun.
