Evo i recenice:
"The judge ruled that employers were obliged to make passes at female staff to ensure the survival of the human race."

Ne uklapa mi se ni "nabacivati" ili "udvarati" (previse je blago), a ni "nasrtati" (nije bas adekvatno...). Ceo clanak mozete procitati ovde:

nastojati da se stupi u intimne odnose
Explanation:
Mislim da je iz konteksta jasno da je cilj stupanje u intimne ili seksualne odnose. "Udvaranje" je u ovom smislu sasvim dobar izraz, jer ono najčešće prethodi intimnim odnosima.

"Sudija je odlučio da je obaveza zaposlenih da nastoje da stupe u intimne odnose s koleginicama radi očuvanja ljudskog roda" ili tako nešto.

pokušaj približavanja


Explanation:
Sudija je doneo nalog da su zaposleni u obavezi u pokušavanju približavanja osoblju ženskog roda radi obezbeđivanja opstanka ljudske rase.

Veoma čudna odluka sudije, zar ne? :-)
