Is a guy calling a girl "cute" good or bad? What does cute mean?

What does it mean from both guys' and girls' perspectives? What would you describe as cute? (In a girl) is it a good or a bad thing?

Oh, it's good. Definitely good. It means pretty, mostly. Or sometimes like adorable. There are different contexts though. Like, I think this question is cute. And since you asked it I think you're cute too. So now since I'm an adult and not someone who would be flirting with you or something that means I think you're adorable. But if someone in your class called you cute that would be flirty and they would be saying you're pretty. And there are others too. Sometimes when you see a picture of a girl your age or something we'll say you're cute because you're pretty for your age. So that's almost a middle ground in a way. And sometimes kids use it to describe how someone acts but that's almost always a little flirty too. There are lots of ways to use it. All of them are positive though. I can't think of any context in which it would be bad.

There's another way to use it too. You could be saying someone is a specific kind of pretty. Like say kind of innocent-looking and soft facial features and that kind of thing. It also helps to be short. Of if you're very innocent.

At least it's a compliment. Sometimes it's about how you look and sometimes it's about how you act. But it's always good. It means you're charming and endearing. That's a good quality.

Cute can be both good and bad it depends on what you're going for at the time

I fail to see any possible negative connotation to "cute". Care to elaborate?

Cute is good for girls and guys. Hot is better for both but cute is good.

Cute is good...it's a non-threatening way to say that you're attractive in a not-just-wanting-to-fuck kind of way.
