In addition to being a product of some insecurity, it's a common shit test. Your reactions to the attempted emotional manipulations of women are constantly being tested. If you pass the test, they become more secure with you, even if you are a total arsehole or even a killer.
It's ridiculous in the sense that successful serial killers know how to pass those tests, anyway. That's how they lure their victims in. And if that doesn't work they can just take by force, as could all men for the purposes of rape in the past.
This shit is all tied to our deep primordial programming, from an age in which women did not have a choice about anything and were utterly dependent on men, and driven to mate with the best male genes. Also, female manipulation is a product of that programming, and the fact that women are physically much weaker than men.
Creepiness comes down to attraction. If two men - one attractive, the other not, do the same things to a woman, the attractive one might get away with it or even be rewarded for it, whereas the other will be labelled a creep because she's not attracted to or not comfortable with him.
