I never thought this was a problem until I had a daughter. She’s had all manner of creepy interactions with creepy men. Until we protect our daughters better, every little improvement we can make in their security is a good thing.

How long is it going to take for men to realize that mysteriously blocked seats are likely to be occupied by women and to select an adjacent seat?
Unless the airline has a dedicated “Women Only” section of the cabin, there is no way to prevent some men from sitting next to some women.

SSOBOL: Women see a color coded seating chart where seats already taken by women are pink - those taken by men will be gray. However, men will see a non color-coded seating chart so they will have no idea which seats have been taken by a woman. Accordingly, men will have no way of knowing if they are reserving a seat next to a woman - or not.
