Start talking to women, but in the beginning, I´d advise to start with the ones you don´t feel attraction to, and remember, women are people, human beings like you and me, with their own dreams, insecurities, desires, etc..all this stuff shouldn´t be that complicated.

Make it your mission to talk to at least one woman per day if you can, you´ve got no problems talking to men, remember women are human beings too, not aliens.Start doing that till you feel conversations with women are flowing more naturally, then move on to the next step.

Start by talking to ALL women, not just the ones you consider good looking.

Well, its only good looking ones (according to a personal sense), that make me shy as heck. Most other women, I'm ok with. Something about good looks makes me freeze up like a computer infected by trojan.

Start small. Just don't start approaching random girls in the mall. When you check out at the grocery store, shopping, wal-mart, etc. start making small talk with the cashiers. Try for female ones if you can, but you should talk to everyone. As them how their day is going today, stuff like that, etc. Go get your haircut, make it a point to have a good conversation with the woman cutting your hair.

Eventually, you will do it as habit, and then talk to everyone like that out of habit, wherever you are.

Also, remember to smile, have some enthusiasm, and make some eye contact. Not too much, and don't be dramatic, but be realistic.

Oh, this is easy to fix. Just picture them without makeup. They will look really normal then.

I'm ok talking with most elderly women (around mom's age). I have no issues striking up an interesting conversation.

I end up learning something new after talking with them, and at this stage I'm always open to expanding my general knowledge. They also don't have the intimidating looks factor to freeze me up, so its all good and ends up being an effective talk.

I'm 6'4" and around 200lbs. I drink, I drink beer. I have six pack abs and a well defined chest.

It won't make you fat.

Your religion is your business. Jesus drank wine, and even Muslims believe Jesus was a prophet. I like bacon also.

Alcohol is called a social lubricant for a reason.

Well, you skipped out hinduism which heavily taboo's drinking for families which descended from priests (like ours). Other groups in hinduism have the freedom to drink, but we don't. The money which goes for drinking must be donated to temple trusts in our case.

And sorry, I refuse to accept it as a social lubricant in my case.
