At 37 you grow a tail. This is normal. It is not functional. Don’t try to climb with it, or swing from a chandelier.
Not advisable at your age. That’s the problem with the later-in-life tail growth: the tail comes at a stage when it is inappropriate and inadvisable to swing from chandeliers; both concerns about social propriety and falling-and-not-being-able-to-get-up come into play.
Then again, damn social convention and limitations of age. If you have a chandelier, and a late-stage vestigial tail, swing. What good is a chandelier otherwise? They are a holdback to when men were shorter and grew tails when they were 23.

David, are you saying I'm going to turn into a monkey at 37. I'm hoping my hair swept into an elastic counts as a tail. I promise not to climb with it.

If you can climb with your hair you can make good money.The late-stage vestigial tail in humans resembles that of the opossum. But this is but an illusion.
