Creepy? (women, call, social, meaning)

[funymann]

Why do a lot of women refer to some men as "Creepy?"

Don't these women realize that's as offensive as a man telling a woman they are "Slutty."

Your thought?

Why is this being said and what makes him "Creepy?"

If a guy didn't act like a creep he wouldn't be called a creep.

If a woman didn't act like a ****, she wouldn't be called a ****.

Observing high school girls (late adolescents) who tag boys with that label my observation is that those girls are most times socially inept.

Wouldn't know, never been called creepy.

Okay to call a man a creep, but not okay to call a woman a s---.

Don't worry, it's only Double Standards.

Don't we have enough threads on this same subject?

Creepy has lost its original meaning.

It's now a catchall for any person who's undesirable.

Not necessarily. An undesirable person who's not bringing attention to himself probably isn't going to be thought of as creepy unless the person is paranoid.

Uh, yes he will be. The creeper who sits alone in a corner at the bar watching everyone comes to mind.

Wrong. Women overuse the word "creep" to the extreme when talking about guys.
