What about approaching pretty girls seems tantamount to facing polar bears ?
Pretty girls (so to speak) can rip me to shreds figuratively, polar bears literally.
Pretty girls size me up as a prospective dinner companion; polar bears as a prospective dinner. I pick up the check in either case.
After encountering a pretty girl or a polar bear, afterward I'm usually licking my wounds.
Both can turn up unexpectedly, when I'm not mentally or physically prepared. Vigilance helps avoid embarrassment or worse.
After a pretty-girl encounter, usually my confidence is shaken and I'm awash in self-doubt. After encountering polar bears, my confidence is boosted and I feel capable and strong -- assuming I've survived.
I've only seen three unclothed polar bears in the wild, about the same number as the total number of unclothed pretty girls I've seen up close ;-). Submerged doesn't count in either case.
I have more confidence in my ability to handle adeptly the former than the latter.
During a encounter, I'm generally trying to discourage the bear and scare it away. But an attractive woman is generally trying to discourage me and send me elsewhere, instead...
