It would be great if people could just follow a maxim like "don't be a creep", but clearly that's impossible in today's culture and so some official guidelines do need to be adopted by some organizations.

However, Level A and Level B outlined near the bottom of the article takes it too far. Treating people like children is not going to solve anything, it's just going to promote further awkwardness, fear and resentment.

Suggestions like Level A and Level B are sucking the life out of life. When implemented, they punish everyone just because a small minority don't know how to set their own boundaries and respect the boundaries of others.

"Oh, I was thinking I was gonna be a creep but now that you told me that I totally know to avoid that."
