Girls are pretty good about complimenting each other when it comes to looks. Guys don't do it because we feel "gay" doing it. I have no problem with guys saying it, and I will too. No homophobia here.

I think Audrey Hepburn is the most beautiful (Caucasian) woman of this century. What do you think that means?

Girls also hold hands, sit on each others laps, hug/kiss, and drape on each others shoulders, but(shockingly) they are not Lesbo. :eek: They be different.

Saved me the trouble of saying it myself.

Oh okay.

When a girl says another girl is pretty, she's thinking "skank."

Actually, my thesis is it translates to the following, the first part spoken, the second part unspoken and implied...

"she's pretty (but not as pretty as me)"

OMG dude, she wants you. Next time you see her, whip it out and ask her if she thinks it's pretty too ;)

No, it's fishing for a compliment actually. Whenever a girl either compliments another girl or disparages herself she's begging for a "you're much prettier than she is" or "no, you're not fat, you're perfect..." reply. No wonder you guys all have 10,000 posts, none of you ever turned off your computer and got a real date, you're all sitting here salivating at these sapphic fantasies.

Either.....

A-) She wants to jump on that clam like a Ethopian on a grain of rice.

or

B-) She is jealous.

I've said a guy is good-looking but that doesn't mean anything sexual.

To lower said readers self-esteem, thereby selling more cosmetic related products.

I mean is that a good thing, or is she just saying that for the heck of it...Like today i was talking to a friend of myne who is a girl, and she said that the girl i went to prom with was pretty....is that a good thing or is she just saying that to be nice?
