Perhaps covering it with a cool layer of casual friendliness and genuine interest will do the trick for anyone trying to break the ice. I'm curious about what males and females define approaching as.

I know how hard it can be to assess how your words will sound to others (I've frequently been told my words sounded sharper than I meant them). I don't really see the debate of this topic frustrating, just as long as it's a healthy debate where people are actually listening to one another. I'm only annoyed when people stop listening. -alwayslookaround
