Why is it normal for a woman to give compliments to another woman like: how beautiful you are today... ?

... And for a man it is difficult to do the same with another man?

We like to be supportive of one another? I don't know why some guys aren't comfortable with it though. That's on y'all. I guess dudes are afraid of being taken as gay but frankly, that's a them problem if that's the issue. I once heard someone say that if people don't question whether or not you and your (same sex) best friend are gay for each other then you're not actually best friends and I kind of agree 😂

Honestly the real struggle is not being able to compliment men as well because then they assume you're flirting with them. My guy friends will always be all "a dude will hold onto a singular compliment for literal years" but like, why not just compliment each other more? Then it won't be so crazy when a girl finally does it. :/

It is normal for both genders if you don't have petty insecurities.

Women understand each other's insecurities and needs for validation. For guys, doing the same thing seems homosexual.

I just told a guy I know that he's got nice feet, and he's going to let me start giving him foot massages.

It should be normal for both

Men need to compliment each other more often.
