The meaning of Cute [and other words used to describe men]

[Hughman]

Thread is pretty much what is says on the tin.

Being called (so) 'cute': Something to be proud of, or another word for a 'nice' guy?

Any other words you can think of, and with meanings if you've got one, go ahead and post.

Depends on the context. If a girl is talking to another girl about a guy,and she uses the word "cute",then I'd say it's a good thing.
If you asked her out,then she mumbles something out,and throws a "your cute" in there,then there may be cause for concern. To me,it's easy to tell if a girl is interested in you or not when you ask her out. If you ask her out,and she starts giving you a bunch of compliments without answering your question,then that's bad. her telling you that you're nice,sweet,a great guy,a good person,and all of this in response to you asking her out is bad.

However,if she says these same things to another girl talking about you,then I think it a good thing.

That's cool. Yeah, she was saying it in a social context, some girls, some guys around. She's got a 10 body, 7 face, but is my best mate's 'little' sister (two years younger but she could pass for 18 quite easily), so I'm not going there.

Uh oh! This is why my love interest responded negatively to being called "Cute". I totally meant it in the sincerest way, but we were one on one, and I remember him saying something to the effect of, "puppies and kitties are cute..."

LOL Cute isn't just appearances, either. Cute can be personality, state of mind, etc. My personal vocabulary also includes "nerd", "tard" and "dork" as synonyms for "Cute".

Once again, being called these things is nothing but good from me. I cannot speak for other women though. Maybe I should grow up some, huh??

a girl the other week said i was cute... i know this can either have good meanings or bad!

in your context it was good i think, she was describing you to others.

awww your so cute/sweet is usually the reply i had in the past when i jumped through a hoop and like a good lap dog recieved a pat on the head as a reward rather than improving my position with the girl in question

I've had OLD women tell me, "Cutie" recently on having just met them. I think that it's a framing mechanism translating to "I'm older and more experienced than you; therefore, I'm still better than you." When younger women have said, "You're cuuute!" I think it means, "I think that I see insecurities in you, and I've fvcked more guys than you have girls, so I'm still better than you."

As long as she isn't calling your penis cute, you are probably in the good.

I actually introduce myself to girls sometimes by saying "Hi, I'm MagicKarl and we both know I'm totally ****ing cute."

Guys can be cute if they're a genuine sort of handsome, or if they do things that make the girl laugh (goofy, funny, cute), or if the girl doesn't want to come on strong, or if the girl is shy, or if you've got a baby face look, or if you're being nice to children/oldpeople, etc.

It can be 'bad' if a girl calls you cute if she turns you into a play item that she can cheek-squeeze in front of her friends to give her friends a good laugh, leaving you standing there going "heh.. ?..." falling into a pit of being a cutesy victim on strings.

what if a chick always says you're "funny" or "hilarious" is that a good thing? Even if it seems that's all she ever says about you.

 

[Hughman]

Hehe, this is why I was confused in the first place! It has a lot of contexts, though thinking back I get it when I'm being a bit goofy...hmm...
