So...
cute = moe
moe = shit

I am not saying cute is moe, but I am merely comparing the two concepts in a way MAL can understand.

Speaking the language of the people, if you will.

Also, the above may not hold true in all cases because moe = shit is a subjective statement.

In other words take a goddamn compliment already.


I am the senpai that notices you.

It also depends on what type of 'cute' they mean.

But it's always compliment though. Not necessarily a romantic advance.

I'm friends with a lot of people older than me and they call me cute like in a sister way.

What else can you call a girl? Pretty? Beautiful? Sexy? those words are kinda awko

Damn right it's a compliment.
If I call someone cute it depends on the context or situation either A) damn boy you cute or B) what you did was cute.
I'll only call a guy hot or handsome behind his back, because saying it to his face would just be awkward.

If you know that your the ugliest one around, and she calls you cute... Then she's probably trying to say that your ugly as shit.

It can also mean the girl wants to get to know him more; happened to me and a classmate back in college and we've been sharing stuff for about a year now

I don't think being called cute kills inner manliness ... I mean; you got a girl's attention, how can that not make a guy less manly?

Definitely depends on the girl's personality and as Scud said, the reason you're being called cute. In my opinion its most definitely a compliment. To the people saying your gonna be stuck in the friendzone or she doesn't want the D, you've been ill informed. Personally, doing something or saying something that would result in being called cute is obviously a step in the right direction.

That's just harsh Tony. You just gotta have the mindset that cute is always a compliment.

I guess it is a compliment, unless it falls under the category 'you are cute and nice, let's be friends' said by your crush.
Anyway, I still thinks it's similar to being called beautiful instead of handsome... doesn't sound very right.
I've been called cute a few times though and it mostly reffered to my personality, which seemed even more like a joke.

...Ô.o

I don't see how "cute" can be used in a negative way, so I'd say it's a compliment. But maybe there are really people who say it with that intention. But not all guys have to be handsome and not all girls have to be cute (or try to be)...

I was actually saying the other way around but, I've been called "Cute" by a someone with the same gender as me as well. It felt like being molested.

Actually, regardless if it's a compliment or not, it depends on the person who said it. For example, you're a girl, you walk past some shady looking guy who pointed out how big your breasts are. That wouldn't feel really comfortable now won't it?

That wouldn't be a compliment.

Well it's pretty much a given that if a girl tells a guy he's hot or handsome, it's a compliment. But when it comes to being called cute, it seems to be a little less clear as to whether it's really a compliment or not.

Some people think it means she thinks the guy is ugly, but doesn't want to hurt his feelings. So she calls him "cute". Yet others seem to think this means she finds him attractive and may even be flirting with him.

Anyway, share your opinion and discuss.


I guess it's not about the cute word, I guess it's about how she use the word cute. Read her facial expressions and judge a bit about her intonations, you will find the answer there rather than generalizing all girls telling someone cute is rather a consulation price in terms of being a good looking (ah man, no one had complimented me anything but cute, so please!)
