Aren't creepy and sleazy synonymous?

Creepy wants to get at the mind and will, disrespecting that mind/will. Sleazy wants to get at the body, disrespecting the person.

Creepy wants to get at the mind and will. Sleazy gets at the body.

So would say a pimp be sleazy or creepy or both? I think both.

The distinction between creepy and sleazy is that creepy invokes fear or disturbance and sleazy disgust imo.

I used to have a teacher when I was a kid. He used to touch the girls a lot. I thought it was sleazy and creepy. Boundary issues.

There's a certain look my Econ prof had. He was also always bee lining it to talk with the single mom students. I always thought he was a major sleeze ball. He really hasn't redeemed himself in my eyes, not that he's trying.
