I thought Jay's experiment was flawed and would like to have seen it done with someone who isn't famous or recognizable. Part of why everyone was talking to him the second time around was because they knew who he was!
I would have been disturbed by "disguised Jay" because he did look creepy. I don't think he looked "unattractive" - he just looked like a man who was unkempt and did not care about his appearance. His personality matched this and I thought he began acting odd. He didn't have the glowing personality he did when he was himself. Besides, I would never talk to any man who accosted me in the mall or accept a drink from a stranger who was sitting in the shadows alone. 
One of my best friends worked at Victoria's Secret in college and had horror stories about the perverts that would come in there and do/say all kinds of bizarre things. I think it is uncomfortable when ANY man is hanging out in bikini or lingerie stores.  
Good try on the experiment, but I think several other dimensions could have been added to it to make it more interesting!

I also felt the experiment was flawed for those reasons.  I know that it happens though...sure of it.   

It did surprise me to hear Dr Phil's comment in the end about how he looked perverted.  Kind of unkind and totally what the show was about.
