The male libido as a common sense filter

We were talking in the office today about that bit in Jersey Girl where Liv Tyler comes to Ben Affleck's house to apologise about harrassing him in the video store, and to ask him to do the porn questionnaire anyway. I said that it would creep me out if some store attendant abused their access to my address to effectively stalk me like that, but the other guys in the office said if a pretty woman tracked them to their house like that, they would be quite flattered. So, am I the freak, or are they?

No no, they are. Pretty does not of itself mean "not creepy". Not to sane people. In fact, creepy behaviour very quickly cancels out any notion of prettiness. Surely!
