Words like stunning, beautiful gorgeous etc are more used for women, that's if we can take the compliment lol
But what are the words for men?
I've seen handsome, good looking, fit as fuck, he's a sort but I don't know? Do they come across equally as complimentary, as say beautiful?
I pondered this whilst on my 6am walk....I'm fucked lol |

They all work. Sometimes they work better than calling a dude 'handsome' because its a base-level generic compliment.
I called a guy pretty once and he didn't freak out, that was nice |

I’d say most language of beauty is aimed at women, if a man was to be described as “beautiful” in my head I’d be mentally thinking of some effeminate emo wearing guy-liner. I would say terms used to describe men tend to be more towards handsome, rugged, maybe gorgeous, but that’d be about it. |

As an effeminate emo who wears guyliner, I love being called beautiful |

I think beautiful equates to kindness a lot of the time for me. If I get called beautiful, it's feedback for me that I'm good inside and out. Xx |

"There are men whom I'd call beautiful, for sure. Gorgeous, hunky, spunk rat, delicious also Spunk rat is a new one for me! Haha! What does it mean?? "
It's Aussie slang for a sexually attractive person

I think we're more likely to compliment women and that's why those words are more associated with them, perhaps. I call men beautiful. They are.
I also call them cute, rather attractive, kind of sexy... Oh I described a man as dashing and suave the other day because he is. Slick. I like complimenting men.
If I'm really complimenting them I'll call them a dick. Or a dickhead. Or a twunt. |

I always thought Brad Pitt was beautiful in Legends of the Fall.
I don't really know why I think that word instead of handsome.
But I will use gorgeous, handsome, sweet cheeks, as terms of endearment. |

I'm not sure it's a lack of words (as amply demonstrated by a poster above) as much as it is a form of toxic masculinity.
We think certain words only apply to the 'fairer' sex but it's social conditioning.

"Men may get fewer compliments but they're possibly more meaningful than the shallow agenda-driven shite women receive on here. "
Only if they’re from women. |

"“Your a really nice guy” might be the wurst compliment to hear for a guy "
Usually followed by a verbal comma (... But...) , rejection, and the later discovery of their now relationship with someone dull, mundane and/or a total arse. |

Well if a woman is telling us directly that they find us good looking, handsome, fit as fuck, etc, then why would that not feel the same/have the same impact for what a women would feel when they get complimented on their physical looks? It's probably a subjective thing to be completely honest. An example of this would be that some people struggle to take compliments and others can. |
