Revision as of 07:20, 15 August 2015
Creepiness, the state of being creepy, is a concept that ties closely into the reality of women's experience, as a gender, with Schrödinger's Rapist. It is used to describe the experienced likelihood of a person being a potential or intending rapist or harasser.
What specifically counts as creepy is not easy to define. Two important criteria are
- subtleness (because if it isn't subtle, it's outright harassment, not merely creepy)
- and context.
