Why do women only call me `cute’ instead of handsome and sexy?

[Anonymous]

I am 6’1 with a beard. Women often compliment me by calling me cute, and sometimes handsome. However I rarely get called sexy, fine, hot etc. why is it that women are only calling me cute instead of hot when I’m tall with a beard?

My guess is that you actually have a baby face that you've covered with a beard to look more masculine.

Handsome, just as cute and attractive are SUBJECTIVE. It's according to the beholder. Has nothing to do with your height, only your face.

I think men who have a mixture of pretty and masculine features are the best looking.

I looked through the best looking men in Hollywood list and was shocked that so few of my personal choices are listed, or are waaaayyyyy down the list.

But my "handsome" is linked to the Golden Mean for faces. Jensen Ackles fits this mean almost perfectly, and most of my choices don't veer far from it:

Paul Newman, Sidney Poitier, Harry Belafonte, Errol Flynn, Brad Pitt, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evens, Chris Pine (the three Chrises!!), Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Denzel. Henry Cavill, Hugh Jackman.

Timothy Chalamet is TOO pretty to be handsome. In a few years, his pretty might be toned down and he fits my likes more.

And then there's ATTRACTIVE. These are men who don't fit the Golden Mean as much, but who have an allure that's undeniable to ME. Tom Hiddleston, Paul Rudd, Robert Downey Jr., Don Cheadle, Cumberbatch. NOT classically handsome, but wonderful, funny, exceptional actors. Makes them DOUBLE SEXY.

So, what would you like: to be DOUBLE SEXY, or handsome?

If someone calls you CUTE, that usually means they notice and LIKE cute men. If they call you, NOTHING, they don't notice you. I think handsome is fin, but the men who count as attractive and double sexy melt my pajamas!

So, don't complain. If women NOTICE you and compliment you, you should be happy. Means you have a built in introduction.

"So you think I"m cute, eh? Well, thank you. Does the beard make me cuter?" And go from there! Play the cards you're given!

Well it cause I was talking to a girl on snap, and she asked me to send a pic of myself. So I did, and then replied `oh you’re cute’.

Nothing wrong with that response! Silence is what is deadly. Or the general, "nice picture," which doesn't comment on your looks at all. Take the compliment and say thank you!

Because they’re only interested in you platonically. Anytime you call a man those things with zero romantic intention, they immediately assume you have some and then act on it by either massively distancing themselves or becoming invasively interested in you.

Hot and sexy are for the top tier men. Also dont listen to what they say women lie a lot, look at their behaviors and how the treat you. Cold and rude = your under average, friendly nice or indifferent = about a 5 or 6, finally if they are extremely excited, break touch barrier, preen, or accentuate their ass or breasts/ any sexualizing of themselves in front of you then you're hot. Your attractiveness can be figured out solely from how WOMEN interact with YOU.

Tbh I tend to experience women either being excited, super nice and generous or nervous and shy.

[Uglygaypoorcoward94]

then if they are like this most of the time you're a 7 or higher. Cute can mean many things but it isn't a negative if theyre sexually attracted to you. Just as we label attractive women, cute sexy hot etc theyre all attractive but each has her own traits

Maybe you have a baby Face otherwise to me it's respect I don't call a man sexy ans stuff unless in trying ro get him in bed

Take the win and call it a day!

[itsannalee]

Because you just cute and not handsome or sexy.

[Asker]

I guess so. Is it bad thing considering I’m in my mid 20s

[itsannalee]

I don’t think so.
My man is almost 7ft, has bearded and big. He is handsome, but i still find there are some men who same handsome as him. But i find him cute, there is no men as cute as him in my eyes. There is nothing bad about being cute, it’s just about what people feel.

There is a vast difference..

A lack of length and girth.
