I would say the same about men in a few different trades. Bonus points for coming home smelling like diesel fuel. I don't know a single woman who considers an "outfit" or "dressing your best" and "combing your hair" to be important qualities in a man. I'm not sure "clean" ranks super high either. Clean-ish works.

My guess is you aren't giving off a friendly impression at first glance/meeting.

It's very different if a well-groomed man comes up in a non-creepy / non-akward way to start a conversation vs someone a bit rough around the edges with not the best moves. Most people can't pull it off, so don't feel bad.

Reported rape is more common in Alaska than any other state, according to 2012 FBI crime estimates. The per capita rate is about three times the national average.In America's "Last Frontier" state, nearly 80 incidences of rape are reported per 100,000 people, the data show. Nationally, the rate is 27 per 100,000. Think that might have an effect on women and why they might perceive men as 'creepy'?

this one time, i walked up to these girls and said, "Hey ladies, you come here often? Ah, who am I kidding...I totally followed you here!"

They mowed down dozens of people trying to run away as fast as possible while screaming for their lives.

lol. women. creeped out so easily. and i was wearing my "friendship" trenchcoat that day too.

so OP, it's not you, it's them. you keep doing you baby!
