If a female approaches you for something work related, cut them off and request they send you an e-mail and let them know you’ll respond via e-mail. Then, keep the e-mail response strictly about the subject.

Won’t work; the lionesses would then accuse them of creating a hostile workplace and lack of cooperation. I say this as a woman. HR departments are the devil.
