Guys, CUTE VS PRETTY?

[Anonymous]

Hi I am taking a poll. I was wondering if you could rate these words you would give a woman from most to least complimentary Sexy, Cute, Pretty, Gorgeous, Beautiful, Hot what do these words mean?

For me, "pretty" means that she isn't bad, but i wouldn't really notice her." Sexy" simply means she has a good body and knows how to use it. "Beautiful" and "Gorgeous" are synonymous. They both mean somebody who is noticeably attractive - to the point where they turn heads.

"Cute" and "hot" is where it gets complicated. Instead of levels of attractiveness, to me, they mean TYPES of attractiveness. "Cute" is a girl who looks younger, more innocent, and more feminine, but less womanly and sexual. A "cute" girl can still have a good body, mind you, but her appearance isn't purely sexual. While a "hot" girl is someone who looks more mature, womanly, and sexual, but less innocent and feminine.

"Attractive" means somebody who is visually appealing. Therefore, both "hot" girls, and "cute" girls are "attactive". They are just different types of "attractive". The words "pretty", "beautiful", and "gorgeous" can be used to describe the LEVEL of attractiveness. And therefore they can be applied to both "hot" girls, and "cute" girls.

1. Gorgeous: being absolutely incredible looking, can be both sexy and cute together.

2. Beautiful: same as gorgeous mostly, but used to a slightly lesser degree of attraction than gorgeous.

3. Pretty: being very physically attractive, tends to be the 'dateable' type of look.

4. Cute: adorable in sort if a puppy like way; higher pitched voice, giggly personality, affectionate in a girly way, etc. Perfect girlfriend material.

5. Sexy: being beautiful or gorgeous but in a more provocative or promiscuous connotation; usually used to signify wanting sex with said sexy person, not really used to describe someone girlfriend material.

6. Hot: being sexy but not necessarily someone one would want to have sex with nor have as a girlfriend. Someone who is just very physically appealing. Shallowest compliment to give a woman (imo?)

Numbers indicate most to least complimentary.

Beautiful > Gorgeous > Sexy > Cute > Pretty
Beautiful means you're amazing inside and out.
Gorgeous means I can't take my eyes off of you and could look at you for a lifetime.
Sexy means we could really do some good fuckin
Cute has to do with facial expression and personality and means I like how your brain made your face do that.
Pretty means you did your makeup ok today.

It's a little difficult bc it's like comparing apples to oranges.
Cute and sexy typically describe actions more so than looks. Hot typically describes how you make me feel. However, gorgeous and bootyful (beautiful) just describe looks.
That being said, my ranking goes this...
5) Pretty
4) Cute
3) Sexy
2) Beautiful
1) Gorgeous (I prefer Stunning)

Going down my list the terms often are directly proportional to how much cleavage is showing.

Hot and sexy are basically the same.

Sexy/hot, cute and pretty are different things. Cute being most important to me personally.

Gorgeous and beautiful are just really strong words that are more all-purpose.
