That pretty much sums up what I was going to say but I'll just say it anyway. Look the thing here is that Jaune seems to be capable of being stupid enough to not notice Pyrrha likes him. Problem is (and I've been saying it a lot already) that Jaune is not an stupid enough. When did Pyrrha ever gave a hint that she likes Jaune? She saved him during initiation because that's what she does, she saves people. She helped him to train because that's what partners do, they take care of each other. And despite her body language showed a lot during the training scene, Jaune was sure that Pyrrha is experienced with men and when she gets sad, Jaune isn't seeing her because he already left.

We've seen Jaune already noticing many things. He was made Team Leader because he was smart enough to notice the stinger and made a plan to kill the Deathstalker. He thought Weiss likes him because she said he was cute. He concluded that Neptune was being honest and truly meant what he said even though Jaune was mad at him a few seconds. He knew that Ren might get disappointed for not being able to go to that village like he originally wanted so he made sure to tell him that they would go eventually. The point is that Jaune already showed that he is smart enough to notice people's feelings. Pyrrha telling him that she likes him is already enough for a guy like Jaune to get the message.

The problem is Jaune's answer to her feelings. He made his point by wearing a dress which wasn't fully for the purpose of making Pyrrha happy since Jaune himself said that he keeps his promises and after his talk with Pyrrha, he knew that she didn't get a date so the dress became a thing to do for him at that point. And like I said early: It would be a d*ck move. RWBY would become the same thing as SAO in terms of romance by showing how nice is to treat women like trophies. Jaune didn't get lucky with Weiss so he goes and tries to have luck with Pyrrha because she got the hots for him. What? That even sounds insulting to both women.
