Do you suppose that bluntly propositioning someone would intimidate the propositioned party? It's just occurred to me that my little Captain Carlos spiel was a bit like a scene out of Star Trek: Voyager, where the statuesque Seven of Nine, half-woman, half-Borg, finds out that Ensign Harry Kim has a crush on her and corners him, poker-faced as always: "Do you wish to copulate? Don't worry. I will not hurt you." Kim doesn't know what to do with himself.
Do men prefer a direct approach or do they prefer to be seduced in a delicate and roundabout manner?
One of the reasons why I favour the direct approach is because I''m a bit fick when it comes to matters of the heart (or the loins) and the other party has to make it abundantly clear that they're interested. Their taking my hand and placing it on their thigh usually does the trick. A direct approach means that there's no room for misunderstanding, but it also means that there's no room to retreat with honour, should things not go according to plan. Perhaps humour is the way to go. Many a true thing is said in jest, after all.
