Cute 🙄
Men, I know you are trying to be nice and sweet but stop calling us cute!!! Cute is a word the describes babies and puppies. We are beautiful and gorgeous women!!! Also maybe I'm the only one that feels this way so might be unpopular opinion 🤔

Pedantic hair-splitting, IMO... If someone is trying to pay a compliment, can you not simply accept the compliment in the spirit in which it was given, rather than getting offended by the specific synonym of "pretty" / "lovely" / "beautiful" they used? Like, are you tryna' be easily offended and looking for excuses to flaunt some outrage, or what? "Cute" is a perfectly normal expression of appreciation for someone or something lovely. And who says "cute" only applies to babies and puppies? Utter nonsense, IMO. Girls say guys "have cute butts," or "check out the cutie/hottie over there." It is an utterly commonplace word/phrase. In the end, it's all the same song and dance. Someone thinks you're lovely and says so. Either appreciate the compliment, or don't. Getting hung up on a specific word choice, especially one as common as "cute" seems utterly pedantic, and even a bit of a red flag, tbh... Like are you gonna' be constantly "judging" every single word choice in the entire rrlationship and getting offended by the "wrong" word every five minutes? If so, hard pass on that nonsense...

girls have always called me cute and I always interpreted it as I am good looking, handsome or attractive.. it's always been interchangeable to me. So I have always used it the same way when I call a girl cute. It means I find a woman attractive, good looking, beautiful even gorgeous.. it just seems a more polite way of saying it. I will never go up to some random woman and say Wow! You are so gorgeous!!!... jeez, calm down creep!... and I won't go up to you and say... You Mademoiselle are so beautiful!.. again kinda creepy. I will however tell some girl I just met that she is cute, and I've always meant it as a respectful way to tell her I find her attractive. If a girl came up to me and called me beautiful or gorgeous I'd be a bit creeped out, but if she called me cute I'd be ok with that. I guess we learn something new everyday.
