Yep thats my classic routine as well, when meeting a girl. Palm press, gentle and scarcely noticable bow of the head, and look into her eyes and smile. Works wonders. Especially on english women, when you do it to them it is very likely the first time anyone has ever introduced themselves in such a manner to them, and they love it.
Tip 50: When meeting a woman, look into her eyes and smile. Works wonders.

Following Alexander's tips
Tip 52 - When meeting anybody, act natural and follow your social instinct, rather than sticking to a preconceived and overgeneralized formula.
Thank you for being a gentleman, Alexander.
Tip 53-Be a gentleman or be a lady, as suits your nature and your sex.

Hah! I've always judged people by the strength of their handshake as well, especially women. Women with limp-wristed handshakes don't see themselves as someone to be respected, they allow themselves to be controlled and directed (at least, that's my impression). The men I meet always have strong, friendly handshakes (that is, when they do in fact shake hands - usually introductions are composed of "hey"s).
Actually, I've never even encountered an introduction like the one that Alex describes. I bartend in a military environment and I live in a redneck town, and when I go to school it's in the sciences where I'm competition and not a romantic prospect. The males who are trying to hit on me are anything but dandies, they smell like beer and they spit. I try not to let them touch me so as to not get oil stains on my lace.

I find having a lot of the same pairs of socks a good idea.
Oh, I'm not going to know how I'm supposed to shake a woman's hand in future now...I'll just avoid them!
Me too, that's a good one, especially white socks for me as they pick up dirt easily, or at least show it.
Tip: 54 Make sure you have got plenty of socks.
Especially white ones...
Tip 55: Never order the pasta in a pizza place or the pizza in a pasta place.
Much as I like this idea, you would have to explain why the very-recently-deceased dog was lying on its back with its paws sticking up stiffly in the air, like a cartoon.

Tip 56: Never feel guilty for enjoying life.
At least I think she meant that...
Tip 57: There is no such thing as 'too much tea'.
10:30 in the morning, and I'm on my fourth cup. Life is good, and the world seems manageable!

On that subject
Tip 58: There is such a thing as too much coffee.
Yes- we were hoping for the distraction of distress.
