For one thing, asking if it's okay to hit on someone is just as creepy as hitting on them.

Depends on what words you use.

Actually hitting on them depends on what words you use too.

In fact, the distinction between asking to hit on someone and actually doing it is so slim that for many practical purposes it may be nonexistent.
