As a guy who is short and baby-faced, I would think that any girl who called me "hot" is probably being disingenuous. However, for most guys, it is the better compliment.
Cute, as others have said, is either a solid compliment or the kiss of death. There's cute like teen heartthrob cute (think Zac Efron), and there's cute like little brother cute. The first one is fine, but the second is akin to saying "I do not see you as a man."
The only people who have called me cute where I've really appreciated it are old ladies.

What's your definition for cute? In my mind, cute is something you say to kids or women, but not for a man. But because in my native language, we don't use that word to describe a man.
Maybe I have a different opinion on the word "cute", but because of that, I prefer to be called hot, or handsome. I don't mind being called cute, it's still a compliment, but it's not my favorite.
I get called cute all the time, and I'm flattered, but I'd be more flattered to be called hot or handsome.
Guys prefer handsome like we prefer beautiful... It's just more meaningful and respectful but it still says I find you attractive.
Cute says I see you as a child/ or adorable, hot just says you're my booty call as well as sexy, gorgeous is good but how often does someone actually use that word? It's giving someone to much credit... Handsome is the perfect word for guys.

Cute on its own is ambiguous.
If she sometimes says got an other times cute i like it. If she always says cute and clearly finds me hot I like it. But if it's only ever cute and she doesn't show sexual interest it sucks.Handsome... means more just like women prefer to be called beautiful
The rest can be nice but it depends on the occasionHandsome.
Cute, sexy, hot, fit, peng and any other word of that ilk is meaningless to me.I prefer cute above most other compliments.
But of the two; hot and cute.. I prefer cute. ^.^Handsome is the best. Then sexy or hot. Then cute. I get called cute all the time, sometimes it seems a little condescending.
Sure. Although it may take me a bit to realize that you mean it.
Hot refers more to the body, handsome to the face, and cute to the face and mannerisms. For boys I think handsome or hot is best but for girls cute is best
when a girl tells me i'm cute, i wanna fuck her cunt mouth. Sorry
