First of all most women don't see it as romantic, they see it a a loser trying to impress with fake class. You will be laughed at.
Secondly, according to old European custom, you only kiss the hand of a MARRIED woman when introduced by her HUSBAND.
Just shake the girl's hand when you meet her. Save the kissing for later.
I agree. Definitely not to be done with a woman you're meeting for the first time. Like I said previously, save it for women that not only you've gotten to know, but gotten a rapport with. Kissing a girl's hand is very effective upon parting company for the evening, for example.
It can be seen as fake class if it's out of context with your image. For example, you needn't bother if you insist on sporting the bad boy/pimp/thug/gangsta image.
crackhead said: yea man a kiss on the hand is pretty corny imo
This feeling is pretty widespread. But it's for that reason that some women (not all but enough) will feel pleasantly shocked if you kiss their hand. Especially if it appears you've singled them out for special treatment: i.e. not doing it with every chick you meet. Part of the DJ thinking is not worrying about appearing corny. But as long as you save it for after you got to know them, even if after only talking to them for an evening. It won't come off as creepy. And it helps if you come off to them as naturally smart, classy, and intelligent. Otherwise it WILL look like you just saw it work in a movie.
