I attribute that to the fact that the game has such a vast supply of cute girls, be they piloted by men or women, that the chances of attracting a lech are fairly remote. The game lacks, by contrast, a very large supply of weird and undefinable characters, so when you do take one out for a spin, you're essentially mopping up all the potential weirdos, since there isn't much else for them to see.
Interesting theory.

I've only been hit on once. It struck me as... I mean... The character's bio says that she's a horrible prude, whose fire powers are driven by her intense embarassment over her costume. I thought that was a clear enough "no, actually" cue, but apparently not.

Still one of the funniest conversations I've had.

[Tell] Someguy: Do you ERP?
[Tell] -->Someguy: Not unless you're my spouse.
[Tell] Someguy: That's respectable.
(a minute passes)
[Tell] Someguy: Disappointing, but respectable.

That was a work of art.

Well, at least your guy came off as having enough brain power to function, and was indeed kind of courteous about it, whereas he could have been a complete dick.

See... I don't actually mind the "nice creeps," because they at least seem capable of sentient though, will get the hint and will usually leave you alone, even if they weird you out. It's the creeps with the apparent intelligence of an unusually round rock that won't take no for an answer and will proceed to follow you around, grief you and pester you that really bug me.

I get a few comments on my main's main costume which is a dragon form. Unfortunately this is the only image of said dragon form that i have uploaded atm and i can't upload anymore til i remember my password XD

Also posting an old cossie of hers when i first started which again got a fair few comments not all of them nice but my costume is made for me and not for everyone else so if they don't like it tough, i pay my sub not them.

Good thing creeps can't follow you into missions
I had this happen to me once in Steel Canyon.

I friended, switched to a 50 and knockbacked every mob they were attacking. When that failed and they went into a mission, our sg camped the door and followed, making snide comments about his costume, peppering it with Monty Python soundbites.

He never did that again on my watch.

As for the trademarked costumes...one person got their Iron Man costume genericed under my very eyes, was quite hilarious.

Now I'm just disappointed I missed Sam, whom I've only ever encountered in Cozmic's Playground global...
