I agree with you that the socially awkward among us could reap large benefits by implementing these “anti-creeper measures”. That’s because we live in a society where such “creepy” behaviors are deemed unacceptable, and in order to fit into a society, one has to follow that society’s norms.
Actually society mostly has no problem at all with these behaviours, which is why the creeper memes flourish. The success of high-status creepers critically relies on this.
But if I grant you your point, I’m reading what you say as the benefit of not being a creeper is conformity with supposed anti-creeper norms. Is that what you meant? Because if so, er, I would have thought the benefits of not being a creeper were the upgrades from no longer seeing women chiefly (or solely) as mating opportunities.
