I do it.
I don't want this to be offensive in any way but are you looking as attraction or like I said just at their body? have you ever told anyone you though a guy's body was nice or anything?
i'm a girl and i even go as far to say that girls is cute... i'd do her.. and nobody thinks of me as gay but it would sound awkward coming from a guy so maybe you should phrase it like, "wow that guys has a nice v-cut i want one" or "i wish my pecks look that good"
Most men are not comfortable enough with their sexual identity to handle that kind of talk. If you want to say this kind of thing, say it to a trusted friend who knows you, otherwise you're asking to be called gay by the general male population.
Well I've never said anything like he's cute or I'd do him I just usually say he has a nice body or I wish my body looked like that. And I've never actually said it outloud. I've said it to another guy friend when I said it about his body but that was about it. He didn't freak or anything he just said thanks and then proceeded to flex and laugh.
The general guy rule is that compliments are fine but don't be specific. We like to be looked at by women, not guys, but will always take a compliment if we've put effort in. That's why "Have you been working out?" is such a cliche now.
I wouldn't go complimenting another guy on a hair cut unless it was something very noticeable whereas I'll tell a girl her hair looks great if she's only put a bobby pin in it.
I think part of it is the language. "Jerry, your biceps look so buff" is very different from, "Been working on the guns Jer?"
So it's all in the manner in which I say things and how I arrnage the words? OK that sounds like it works. By no means do I want to come off as hitting on another guy. Like I said I usually don't say anything directly to the person but occasionally just a damn I'm jealous or something.
well it's one thing to think it another to say it. i think if you start commenting its kinda asking for people to read something into it, really, how many motivations can you have for complementing someone's body?
I mean if you're that into fitness maybe you should go down the gym yourself so your comments will be in context.
I'd watch the 'Damn I'm jealous' line. Not really a guy thing to say.
Guys do like to brag, boast and talk about how they achieved something though. If you've got a bud and you admire his abs, biceps, whatever it's cool to ask how he does it.
Like, you'd say, "Hey Jerry, seriously dude, how do you get your biceps so pumped up? I've been doing some weights but I can't get anything going." It's a guy compliment. Guys like to know stuff and giving them an opportunity to talk about what they know is empowering. Women know this.
