Do you ever compliment Women on their fashion?

[brissyboy]

I just say that looks good , never ask them where they got it from otherwise they think you're gay.

Hopefully everyone realizes that women's compliments can also be intended to communicate interest. And that positive impressions of square-toed shoes probably have more to do with the jock-like guys who wear them than the shoes themselves.

Since a bag is an unlikely proxy for beauty, complimenting a woman's bag seems effeminate.

There is no such thing as a confident straight male who gives the slightest thought to whether he may be coming off as gay.

I think I'm using the word gay just because that is the focus in this thread. My objection to commenting on the brand of the purse centers around blatant materialism and brand-whoring. It takes the focus off the apparent beauty of the object and puts it on the brand. This sort of thing has always bothered me.

I compliment my mum and my girlfriend on a regular basis. Strangers, never, but like it was said earlier, most women dress rather poorly and it might be too obvious to say, "You look like a ridiculous whore, but that makes me want to ******** with you, and thus I like what you're wearing."

On a somewhat related note, I dated a girl who had a bunch of Coach bags and would, after taking like an hour to get ready, spend another 20 minutes or so picking out what bag she wanted to carry. After turning to me with the bag in hand and asking how she looked I'd say, "Carrying that bag? Like an idiot."

Nope, I led a girl into complimenting me before though. She asked me where did I get that shirt. I answered why. She says it's tight.

She meant it's too small and figures you must have gotten it at the Salvation Army.

Since most women do dress in an unremarkable way, I'll go out of my way to compliment a nicely dressed woman. I'm very careful how I phrase compliments at work, however, where I often simply pass the opportunity to offer a compliment (if I can't think of a way to make it definitely, 100% certain that I'm not hitting on her).

I never acknowledge knowing the brand of anything when I compliment a woman, though. It's way too ****.

my moms favorite bag is a coach bag that i bought her.

When i'm wealthy i'll buy her something like an Hermes, but she's pretty happy with that one.

You just have to be careful not to overdo complements or you'll come across as a creepy simpering wimp. My theory is, keep the kiss-ups to a minimum so it is a welcome treat when you offer them. But let your eyes, smile, and raging bulge int the pants. be a complement to a lady every time you see her.
Fixed.

I do give woman compliments on their fashion when its truly eye catching and I cannot help but look twice. They eat that **** up just don't show that you know too much about fashion becuase they may get the wrong idea about you.

Ive ruined chances with many girls this way. And in your case if she compliments you, you just gotta play dumb about it like your style is a kind of accident.
