Guys do me a favor... (gals can chime in)
I JUST had this conversation with someone. Here's my hierarchy
Beautiful
Gorgeous
Hot
Pretty
Cute
Hot and Pretty flip flop
me too... I'm told I'm cute all the time *starts crying*
I'm almost 40 yo god damnit, how can I be cute—?
Mr. Pisces said I was beautiful, for what it's worth 😄
So, VH, what is it you're saying about Feisty and I, huh? *hands on hips* Don't be messing with us... we'll mess up that pretty face of yours boy!! 😄 ::hugs::

What's wrong with it— You have us at the bottom of the totem pole!
Grrr. I get called cute too. It's the red hair and freckles girls. I swear.
I've been called more then cute but it's the hair. DAMN the hair .....................and freckles.
Cute my ass.............
I've noticed it was certain types of guys to call me certain types of things who only see certain sides of me. I will give examples.
I was dancing in a club one night with my friends and a guy had apparently been watching me from afar the whole time. Creepy, I know. One of my other friends happened to be the cousin of said guy and came over to me after I had sat down to catch my breath momentarily. She told me he said I was, "Hot". My dancing involves a lot of hip movements and I guess one could consider it "hot". He had called me a few times to get me to go with him to a sketchy part of town. The thing is, I hadn't even seen his face nor did he introduce himself properly. He was a contradiction. Shy yet forward, but I refused to pursue it further because normally when guys say "hot" it's usually about the physicality of relationships i.e. lust and sex.
Another guy I'm friends with called me "cute". He's known me since I was about fifteen so of course he would only really think of me as a cute girl -- not a gorgeous woman. The discussions we have are very platonic so I think when guys call women cute it's not to say they think they're a child, but that they probably couldn't or don't want to imagine them as a pin-up.
A few guys have called me beautiful; all of which were seeking out some sort of long-term relationship and some succeeded at getting that from me. Make of that what you will.
I haven't heard gorgeous said to anyone at all, but have heard fine as hell quite a bit. I think gorgeous is an outdated word. I think pretty is a lot more common. I've heard guys call girls pretty, but I also think societal wise, pretty is okay for women to refer to other women as. I've heard more women call other women pretty than I've heard men call other women pretty.
Though based on those examples I can see differences in the uses of each word and why they're used as opposed to other like words, I think they're pretty much the same thing aside from beautiful versus cute. I think beautiful and cute are two different things. When I think of cute I think of bunnies, lollipops and puppies. When I think of beautiful I think of sunsets, Por Una Cabeza instrumental, and a person with great character to match their great looks.
Yeah........I get called "cute" too. But I'm also 4'11. *shrug*
I get it. I'm all little and animated. I don't think they're calling me ugly or anything.
I've only been called "pretty" by other females. I'm not sure males use that word?
Oh and a Cap boy told me I was beautiful...It made me uncomfortable and I never hung out with him again...LOL
Wierd, because he was a childhood crush and you'd think all I ever wanted was for him to like me like I liked him.
& I'm sure I've only been called "hot" in reference to my bewbs. 🙂 So whatev.
I usually am referred to as sexy or beautiful (sexy by men, beautiful by women; there is a distinction I guess), but I am like 7 feet tall (not really 😉, but I'm tall), so I've never really been called "cute" except when I was a child. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so it is subjective. Trust me when I say I have some friends who are short (I know people typically say "cute") but these women are jaw dropping hot/sexy/gorgeous, so it's all on the perspective and the person.
I get Hot the most. My Virgo called me Gorgeous and My Pisces always called (still does) Sexy. I dont think I get beautiful very often though - other than by my ex husband. A few times, but I think they were just trying to play me. LOL.
Seems I get Sexy more than anything else, I think it's because I'm a very outwardly crass but sexual person. But that wasnt even on the list!! LOL!!

I know!!! Leave it to us to go against the grain! Yeah, I hear ya' though. I typically get sexy the most. I think that sexy is good, because it doesn't have to do necessarily w/looks. It's a "way" that one has about themselves. There are people who are traditionally attractive, but are sexy as hell. So, I'll take sexy any day of the week!

I'm sure he meant it w/the utmost respect!
Lol yeah with complete reverence
Lol. He doesn't have to kneel down. He's 6'2 but he just leans down I guess? Never really analyzed it.
I think he likes that I'm small cause he feels powerful - like my protector or something. I've always dated tall guys *shrug* I'm not really into short dudes.
I just stand on my tippy-toes. 😉
Am I falling victim to your sex talk right now?

My dearest love...
You just have no idea do you?
You see, me and some of the other DXP gentlemen were hanging out at one of the local bars and the conversation came up...
"Did you see Ging's pictures? OMG SHES SO BEAUTIFUL". And we drank a round in your honor.

Lil, your beauty rivals that where comparing you to a rose would be such an understatement and an insult towards you!!!

Is that what it is Ginger? Because I have red hair and freckles and I get called cute all the time. It doesn't bother me, but it would be nice to get called something else every once in awhile you know? When I first met the last Aqua guy I was with he was like aww you are cute! Then later on it moved to you are so hot! That's all it ever was though.....cute and hot. I don't think I've ever gotten called beautiful before. I'll take cute and hot though anyday cuz when I look in the mirror I just see awkward LOL.
Awkward = Beautiful 🙂

Beautiful is also in the manner which you carry yourself. You carry yourself like a lady so it is beautiful!

but a cool calm smooth talking english person could pull it off 😉
Oh I can pull it off. Women like my voice. Especially if its late and it gets all buttery. But that whole english bit is so amazingly hard to compete against 🙂

LOL

Just speaking for the heart, my dear! *grins*
In all seriousness, just being silly. I can be summed up as a "Goof looking for his ball". Just got out of my morning Saturday course, and I can see the tail end of this crunch mode. This first month of this semester has been nothing but a sprint so I'm looking forward to it going back to a smooth, controlled pace in October. Time for a long nap, turn in 1 more assignment and a test online before midnight, then hopefully have a nice with a very nice dinner, bunch of laughs, a few beers or glasses of wine, and very primal sex if I could only be so lucky!

the only thing I can conclude from Brianas pics is that she is BOUND to be a beast in bed 🙂
Hahah Shaks mind is running wild! 🙂
Lol...it's the one's you least expect
You are really being totally creeeppyy
Well it's just that in chinese astrology I actually am a rabbit...so I didn't fully appreciate the comparisons there
Nevermind lol 😄

define the difference between
1) Cute
2) Pretty
3) Beautiful
4) Gorgeous
5) Hot
Can they be one in the same? Or, are they mutually exclusive categories of attractiveness?
