There was a time when this was a compliment. For you how does it feel ? Disrespectful? or a compliment?

I remember when if the boys didn't whistle it was a problem as you thought you were undesirable as a girl.
It to me is sad that people actually no longer seem to know the difference between a compliment and harassment.
There were times when if some said you looked nice, your hair looked nice, you had nice eyes, where as a lady it made you feel good and you would say thank you.

@Highskirt There is absolutely nothing wrong with a gentleman giving a lady a compliment at all
I say keep it up, for those that don't understand the difference, it is their loss.

@espoir I don't understand why people do not understand the difference between the two.
Why can't you say to a member of the opposite sex that they look nice anymore

@espoir Interesting discussion between you and @Longleggedlady. I think times and values have changed over the years and that goes for the preferences too. In the present times it is not difficult to compliment a person of opposite gender but to an individual of the same gender. Eyebrows are raised in suspicion 🤨

@Longleggedlady Because of a change in perceptions and customs and what society dictates.
