Compliments are interesting. I think that most compliments go unspoken. I often reflect throughout the day about the people that I look at. I might think that a colleague's hair looks lovely today, but I wouldn't interrupt conversation to tell her. I don't think it matters whether the compliment comes from a male or a female. I take them at face value and say thank you, but while it is nice to receive compliments, I don't find that they really change the perception that I have of myself. I'm comfortable with myself, my flaws, and my personality.
So, I suppose the answer is - it doesn't really matter. It's nice to compliment people, and as long as it is done tactfully, it shouldn't matter. Now.. if it's creepy leering, that's off-putting.
