Is it socially acceptable for a girl or guy to say that someone of the same gender was hot or sexy?

Screen Shot is from a movie called Aquaslash

[Cynicaldreamer]

Yeah, why not? I'm straight and I'm secure enough to admit when I see a woman that's sexy or attractive!
Not because I'm bi, lesbian, attracted to her, or anything like that. I can admire a person, male or female, with a nice body.

That and it makes me wish I looked as good as they do... I am definitely envious of women with gorgeous bodies because I wonder how did they attain it.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Right! I look like"I want that body" meaning that type of body... Not"I want that person" in a sexual way!

[Cynicaldreamer]

@Brainsbeforebeauty Exactly!!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one that thinks that way~ Like you look at them wondering how they look so good and wish you could look as good as they do. Not to be creepy or weird, you just admire their figure

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Exactly... Sometimes you want to ask but do on he want to look like you hitting on em 🤣🤣 oh why am I lying lol did do that once like girl I need to know your secret I need to get in shape type thing... She didn't react negatively... Not like the chick my friend died once how far along she was when it was just overweight chick buying tons of snacks 🤣🤣🤣 well that chick didn't find it funny, but I did after but only cuz told my friend not to... Want making fun of that chick, more my friend 🤣🤣

[Cynicaldreamer]

@Brainsbeforebeauty LOL! I've got to try that next time: just ask them what their secret is to their figure/how good they look. Like I've seen women with these perfect legs, arms, etc and you KNOW they probably eat, sleep, and breath fitness? Those types. That's awesome she didn't react negatively or weirded out when you asked her! But then I guess they're probably so proud of their figures and work they put into looking that way, they don't mind telling you how they did it

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Well yeah... Why not... Noticing someone of same sex is pretty or attractive isn't the same as being attracted to them... I can notice a female with a really nice figure and think, damn wish I had that shape... Not damn I wanna "F"that...

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Thanks for mh

[Jjpayne]

You are welcome! :) thanks for the entertaining commentary :)

When and where? Different attitudes dominate in different places. *Should* it be acceptable? Absolutely.

[DizzyDesii]

I mean its okay to say WOW YOU LOOK GREAT IN THAT OUTFIT. But i dont think i’d ever just say the same sex is hot/sexy. I see nothing wrong with admitting when i find a celeb pretty and would like to have features like hers. But i wouldn't just go all out. The terms used usually determine how u go about it

[Flower7]

I think "hot" and "sexy" are going a bit far. To say the person is pretty or handsome is probably okay. But the words "hot" and "sexy" tend to refer to sexual attraction which usually wouldn't be said about the same sex by a straight person.

[matchrestore]

It should be!

[ushagomez]

Yes of course it’s ok.

[Kimdracula9]

Im not interested in other women but I have no problem saying they are sexy and even finding them attractive.

[RunawayGirl]

I do this more often than I care to admit, generally saying it to their face. There's nothing wrong with it, it's just like complimenting someone any other way

[JackSmy]

I think more 'acceptable' for women, commenting on women, than guys, about guys.
Just my impression, and experience. . .
A woman can say something like "Those jeans are so perfect for you, and make your butt look great!" or "that dress is so cute on you!"
Me, and the guys I know, WOULD NEVER say things like that!!
We maybe just smile, and have some connection, when one is going out and looking good for the ladies!

[Karin_Anna]

I see no harm it, it is truthful.

[RydiaMagnifique]

Absolutely. I say it all the time. When me and my man went to brooklyn, he teased me at the beach because of all the women in bikinis and I said to him "Sometimes I hate being bi". I was implying that some of the women there were very hot and he found that cute so he teased me. Lol

[slatyb]

In some circles. Why not?

[just_a_potato]

Socially acceptable or not if they are fine with it I'm gonna tell her she's fucking sexy 😏

[Gwenhwyfar]

Yes!

[KingdomForAKiss]

Yes, it is.

[LiyaArgent]

i do it often...

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

This is common for say a Woman to tell another Woman she was Hot or Attractive and uncommon for Males to tell this to other Males.

[humanearth]

A guy would never say that to another guy. They will be marked as a homosexual

[Ninjazzed]

It’s fine for a girl to compliment another girl but if a guy compliments another guy then their friends are quick to judge them or label them as gay which is kinda fucked up.

[AdithyaR]

I'm not sure whether it's acceptable or not but I still say it nonetheless. I'm comfortable with my sexuality so I have no problem complimenting guys or girls

[MasRus]

It is as long as it is not said disrespectfully.
