I take 'handsome' compliments from any woman, regardless if I find her pretty or not, but I suspect that women would want the man to be 'attractive' in her view. A very pretty Yoga instructor in my Yoga studio, greeted me one day with "Hi handsome" I was very flattered, as she was drop dead beautiful.
Women have a way of expressing a compliment to men, even if they do not express it verbally. In my 'state' office, if I ignore a pretty woman (as I often do, since they get a lot of attention anyway) , she sometimes acts 'offended, taking it as a 'slight' and may even sit down, take her hair down, (if she had it up) and then look back at me to see if that changes my 'view' of her.
A woman, asked WHY I needed her phone number on her personal check. (office policy in all 'state' offices.) I told her that "I certainly will not be calling you and harassing you" !
She commented: "Well, that's disappointing" ! I Laughed.

Yes that’s so true , I see girls do this a lot which to me it’s so disrespectful I understand girls tend to get hit on more then guys do but , whether you are attracted to someone or not , the fact that person took the time and made a compliment toward you when they were probably nervous as shit gives no one a right to be an asshole toward them , you only become an asshole when the person doesn’t take no for answer after you politely declined them , but to be an asshole right off the start just shows what kind of person they really are and I can’t stand people that way, that act like their shit don’t stink , We don’t walk around with signs flashing over our heads showing what we are into or what are relationship status is , so no matter what I am always polite to someone that took the time to compliment me or made an attempt at me , no reason for me to be an asshole about it , I lose all respect to people that do that , just like cat calling , 2 girls just cat called at me the other day while I was taking trash out , they drove by in a car and yelled Damn!!! Hiiiii!! While honking the horn at me , I was a little caught off guard but I smiled at them , No reason for me to be an asshole what so ever

Not for me lol
I just thank the person and look at them either confused and give them a polite smile and nod.
Confused, cause I don't understand why they approached me. (Not because I think I am ugly but because I'm not keen on being approached that way, I won't be rude though.)
Polite smile and nod cause I don't want to be rude.
I just don't see the benefit in being complimented by others it doesn't boost my ego or make me feel prettier.
I enjoy it coming from my partner just for the feeling of being loved and cherished by my partner.00 Reply
+1 yNot necessarily. I think it depends more on who and their reason why they completed. If it’s a friend of yours who rarely compliments you. ‘I like this outfit’ would probably mean something more then one of your girl friends that always compliments you unconditionally. But sure a handsome guy complimenting is an ego boost

+1 yOf course it would mean more to them, just as it does to me. Contrary, when a freak-of-nature gives me a compliment, I get nauseous; however, I can’t go run screaming sexual harassment as women can. Another thing is, a guy that is flooded with compliments from women probably isn’t going to giving many out, and those are usually the guys from which you seek compliments. In addition, in a world of assertive horny women expressing their sexual freedom, real vagina shoved in one’s face supersedes compliments and guys that have this problem are not thinking about compliments. Therefore, a clever woman that knows what makes the world turn would at least appreciate any compliment at least just out of politeness.

Anonymous(25-29)+1 yIf many guys believe that, why do they compliment women then if they are not handsome? I only would not like it when a man much older than me make compliments. So it is disgusting to flirt with much younger women who could be your daughter
Imagine you get compliments by the no neck ed from 90 days fiance who had a 30 years old daughter. I would be traumatized.

Opinion Owner+1 yI agree with you
Opinion Owner+1 yOh i misunderstand the question. I think everyone likes it more to get compliments by attractive people
+1 yI would say it would carry more weight from a guy they fancied, yes. Same goes for men. We love getting compliments from women we are attracted to physically.
By no means does this mean we don't appreciate them from other women that don't catch our eye, but it definitely holds more sway from someone attractive. Shows that we displayed something desirable to that person.10 Reply
+1 yA handsome guy once told me I am beautiful.
I didn’t respond as I was in shocked.
Then he started avoiding me.
when he is too handsome and your self esteem is not good enough you may doubt the compliment.
But when it comes from an average guy I feel like I can accept it more readily.00 ReplyYes, it makes me happier, gives me a rush as opposed to someone I don't find attractive, its like they are talking about something mundane instead of giving me a compliment.
I'm like oh thanks instead of a flirty smile and or a witty comeback10 Reply
+1 yI think both genders do have a bit of a read across.
all things tend to be like this.
being told you are really fit (active etc) by a couch potato doesn’t come across as well as a fitness trainer in the gym.00 ReplyOf course its only logical. I feel the same way. I get plenty of fat girls asking me out, complimenting me, asking for my number.
But im not happy about it unless the girl is somehow attractive. Fat ugly girl compliments do nothing for me.00 ReplyObviously. Unattractive guys giving women compliments are legit seen as sexual harassment nowadays, thanks to feminist Karens.
20 ReplyYes I start shivering. Coz I love the guy too much and he is too handsome. ( I feel he deserves better no idea why he loves me so much) I'm simple.. not ver fashionable..

+1 yI believe that is very true.
The difference between flirting and sexual harassment is whether or not she finds the man attractive.00 ReplyYes and no. Some will care and some won't, just depends on who you get.

+1 yProbably, I know I'm more flattered if someone I think is attractive calls me attractive
00 Reply400 opinions shared on Fashion & Beauty topic. It all depends on wether she likes the guy or not. If she likes him he's flirty and compliments her and she might even fuck him without knowing his name. If she doesn't like him he's an Incel rapist.

Do men compliment women saying they’re beautiful & smart if it’s not true just to charm her into being with them?
