I was recently talking to a group of my guy friends about the difference between a 'cute' girl versus a hot girl or a gorgeous girl. What is the difference? - So many different adjectives associated with attraction. I don't get it. Any thoughts?

Ok I like what I saw with responses so far but there are still a couple things left out. The fact that a guy may say out loud a girl is hot is a true testament of that guy! THAT GUY! Not the girl, see the male is more like a shotgun blast, We have a typically large range of what we see as attractive. So what one guy says is "HOT" is only "Yea Id do her" to another guy. I typically like to sleep with "cute girls" because they don't hurt me. I like to date "smoking hot girls" because they look good next to me in public. Lastly If I EVER get married I would only consider a Gorgeous women, NEVER SETTLE

Cute Beautiful/ gorgeous and hot are all relative to the "standard" for attractiveness.

Lets call the standard "Hot", Hot is a play boy bunny. A Hot girl generally looks something like a girl you would see on the cover of a Victoria's secret catalog. Strictly speaking a hot girl is a girl that sexually attracts a male and when I say sexually I mean sexually. Guys generally want to have sex with hot girls (as opposed to romantic dinners).

Cute is a little different. Cute means good looking but not necessarily conforming to the standard for sexual attraction. A Cute girl is a girl that isn't Hot but is still attractive. Cute means that she's attractive TO THAT SPECIFIC MALE as opposed to attractive to the collective as a hot girl would. A cute girl attracts a guy by her face rather than her body.

Beautiful/ Gorgeous is a little different. Beautiful is generally talking about a womans looks. Its something you would say to your wife. Beautiful doesn't have any sexual connotations to it (like hot) its strictly speaking about a womans good looks. ITs also more formal.

To put if VERY simply:
You want to have sex with a hot girl.
You want to hang out/ go out with a cute girl
You want to date a Beautiful Woman.

BurtsBees19 A cute girl has a pretty face, and an attractive, possibly bubbly personality. She is generally a friendly person and smiles a lot.
A hot girl is all looks. She exudes sex. A hot girl generally wears revealing clothing and likes to show off her body. - 5 months ago
Question Asker I thought of another way to explain it:

Reese Witherspoon = cute
Paris Hilton = sexy (haha, that is the best example I could think of even tho she is pretty ugly to me)
Jessica Alba = beautiful woman - 5 months ago

I rarely use hot or gorgeous. I think it's one of those words that is used all the time like LOVE. A cute girl is a girl that is attractive. A hot or gorgeous girl is one that is very rare and model material. But that's just the way I look at it.

Cute girl = the girl next door cute. Hot girl = pin up girl. Gorgeous = smart and attractive at the same time.

My boyfriend has called me all of the above and in no particular order. They're just words and they depend on the guy and how he defines it. Like if we say a guy is hot, he's eye candy. If he's cute, he's good looking with an awesome personality. If he's adorable, he makes your heart melt. And other girls may have different standards, it's just an example.

Does it matter? If we described as one or all of those then that's a darn good ting.

It totally depends on the guy. If it is your boyfriend and he loves you he'll probably tell you he thinks your beautiful. If he is a guy talking to a guy he'll be like "dang that girl is HOTT! "
does that help any?

SemiShy Sorry, but I have to disagree. I guarantee you that if we made a poll on this, most if not all guys would say that they would prefer a cute girl over a hot or gorgeous girl. - 5 months ago
Question Asker Please initiate the poll. I agree with you somewhat. - 5 months ago

Does it ever annoy you that you're single?
random-ren asked 18 days ago

Yes, most of the time! I really wish I had a boyfriend/girlfriend!

A little, because I feel left out.

Not really...

Nope! I have too much fun being single!

What's there to be annoyed about?

What is your favorite outfit for a night out with friends?
My style is usually casual and chic. I have nice legs so I normally show them off with shorts but not too short, just above the knees with a nice blouse or tank top. I love accessories especially necklaces so one will be hanging around my neck each time.

I also like to match what I wear to my shoes and bags so either will be the same color as my tank top or shorts.

How do you style your hair and do your make-up?
My hair is just above my chin and is straight because I just had it straighten. I don't do my hair much just let is fall naturally because I like it the way it is.

My makeup is just the basics, light foundation, blusher, eyeliner, mascara, eyebrow pencil and lip gloss.

Do I have style?
