Why the double standard?

They're comfortable enough with him to rest their head on him, but if he touches their shoulder, it's assumed to be predatory intent. The only difference is whether the man or woman is doing the touching.
I agree there are good men, but women aren't mind readers, so we keep our expectations low until we get to know the guy.
You're generalizing about all women. There will be a woman out there who is comfortable with you. Stop focusing on the ones who don't trust you.
Try to be more understanding I guess... They might have had bad experiences with other guys. They don't want too much too soon.
