Would you say being called "classy" is a big compliment? What does it mean exactly?

Question

Guys especially, if you used this term was it intended to be a big compliment?

FingerDancer · Accepted Answer

It really depends on the age of the guy using the term classy.
Classy to younger men often means sexy but not slutty and intelligent.
Classy to older men often means elegant and of outstanding character.

She is a class act. meaning she is nearly faultless in every aspect

Borginborg · Answer

yes it definitely is a compliment. if I use the term classy it means that I find you have confidence and poise. you carry yourself with dignity and express yourself appropriately. You hold your head high and don't let the little things in life get you down. You have fashion sense and know you look good.

JuicyBrain · Answer

Being called classy is a good thing. Being classy will earn you respect. It can mean you dress with taste and not too sexy. It can also mean you are a good person with good principles and who is fair play.

TadCurious · Answer

Definitely, yes! If I call a girl "classy" I sincerely mean that as a really high compliment. And it doesn't just have to do with how she looks or is dressed. It also has to do with how she is as a person.

To me, if I said she was "Classy", I mean she is first-rate in every way. It is a complement that says that she is attractive, dresses appropriately, and is well mannered. A man would love to be called "Classy", if he acts appropriately.

Classy women are somewhat hard to come by so I would say its a big complement.

AllThingsQuestioned · Answer

Being classy usually means, well for me at least, I acknowledge the effort the person has made and if I say it with a special tone and my happy smile it is usually a little comment on how cute they are :D

Riggers · Answer

Yes. I would say that's quite a high compliment.

CisScum · Answer

It means you're classy or high class. Great compliment considering a lot of girls aren't classy. But it's always nice to find a few here and there :).
