    So what is creepy about hooters but not about porn?

    In general the difference is the in person interaction. While porn does have some direction interaction it is remote and there is far less direct control by the consumer.

      So it is less creepy to engage with porn than hooters while porn is arguably far more exploitative and dehumanising than hooters because the creep is interacting with the woman?

      I really don’t know if I agree there and again, I think very poorly of hooters and their customers, I am not defending it.

        Being exploitative and dehumanizing isn’t the same kind of thing as being creepy, although they can be intertwined.

          I guess my question would be creepy in perception or creepy in behavior?

          Perception? sure, fine. Behavior? I think sexually dehumanising behavior would be what we would call creepy.

          But I think a call to action (what the original comment was) to not be perceived as a creep… idk.

            ch00f’s reply to you gives a better explanation than I had typed up, but exactly what I’m describing.
