Much like a [[Tomboy]], the '''Ice Queen''' is a major character archetype, and yet is a nebulous concept. The Ice Queen is a woman who is cold, in any or all of the possible interpretations of what "cold" means. She has a cold heart, and a frosty demeanor. Hence the name "Ice Queen", which is often used as an insult, particularly by [[Sour Grapes Tropes|scorned men]]. Due to the [[Double Standard]], the '''Ice Queen''' is [[Always Female]]. Males are just [[Jerkass]]es.
The Ice Queen is unapproachable by a sane man, as she will simply tear out his heart. The term can also be used in a non-romantic sense for a woman who rejects the normally close society of women, and prefers to be [[Loners Are Freaks|a loner]]. Also used on women who are ''not'' emotional wrecks, since being cool-headed and rational is often seen as ''weird'' coming from a woman. Very often subjected to [[Defrosting Ice Queen|defrosting]].
She is not the [[Winter Royal Lady]], but the chances to overlap are optimal. Completely unrelated to [[Glacier Waif]] and [[An Ice Person]].
An Ice Queen ''requires'' at least one personality trait that gets her labeled as an Ice Queen. There are many different flavors; the following are some of them:
