I think you&#x27;re jumping to some conclusions there.<p>Most &quot;creepy&quot; men are socially awkward and can&#x27;t do anything about it, or at least they haven&#x27;t been able to do anything about it yet. To villainize them out of hand isn&#x27;t helpful either. <i>Some</i> of them undoubtedly have social disorders, so coming down on them seems unfair as well. Maybe there are some people that are creepy <i>on purpose</i>, but I suspect that is a very small number of incidents.<p>People have a responsibility to learn how to respectfully approach potential partners, but the rules on that are vague and there&#x27;s no authoritative resource on what they are. But there&#x27;s absolutely a bottom line, that we should aspire to make sure everyone feels safe and respected.<p>But, on the flip side of the coin, people have <i>some</i> responsibility in learning how to learn how to reject someone clearly but respectfully. Walking to the other side of the room and talking to your friends about the creepy guy is literally the stuff of other peoples&#x27; nightmares.
