My girlfriend prefers me calling her hot over beautiful, is that unusual?

I usually tell her she's beautiful, but I said she looked hot and she loved that, she said she prefers that over me calling her beautiful and wants me to use the word "hot" from now on.

Dude, that's not super unusual. Lots of girls like being called "hot" over "beautiful" - it's a bit more of a flirty, sexy vibe. Some girls feel like "beautiful" is a bit more formal or serious.

As long as she's into it and that's how she wants you to compliment her, there's nothing wrong with that. It just shows she likes the more physical, attractive side of things over the sentimental stuff. Just roll with it and keep calling her hot if that's what she prefers.

The main thing is that she feels desired and appreciated by you. If "hot" does that for her, then go for it. Just make sure you balance it out with other romantic gestures too, so she knows you see her as more than just a physical attraction. But if she's digging the "hot" compliments, keep 'em coming, my dude.

As long as you're using the term in a respectful and consensual way, there's no reason to think it's unusual or inappropriate.

It's because those are subjective terms and in her head hot is superior to beautiful

Oh definitely, she knows I think she has movie star good looks and that made her really happy.
