Compliments Shkomplimench

In a group conversation today, Chris commented on my "cool" K-Swiss shoes.
Another lady in the group asked why he always seem to comment only on what I'm wearing while he never had any on the women's.

Here's the cut; When a guy appreciates another guy's stuff, it is a statement of common likes - that we have the same "good taste". But when a guy starts checking out women's dress, accessories and what have they, - it sets an alarm that sexuality maybe in question. U wont hear Arnold Scwarrgrrghre say "hey, I like your skirt!" - that might even land him into a sexual harassment case. Women on the other hand can do it because they can appreciate style and fashion verbally and actually wear boys stuff and nothing can be implied. Its normal that way, lest bi-sexuality and weirdness is your cup of latte.

Complimenting looks. "You look great today". Now thread on this one slowly because there are two premises hereto; one is that you never really looked good, and the other is you look good only today. This scenario had a more sinister play on me when I wore a pink shirt at work and my co-worker commented "you look clean today" - I convinced myself that it was just the limited English vocabulary that most Japanese tend to suffer from and get them close - but not exactly near to what they mean... I replied, "you mean "neat" right?" ... she paused but so wantonly decided to have me in that trap and responed , "No, you look "Clean" : ) ..." wooookey... thank you very much, I'll do my best to always look "clean" all the time. Women are lovable-mean monsters.
