My co-worker described a women on tv (she's kinda cute) as such...and that got me to thinking...what does this term mean? Is this some kind of back handed compliment?

    It means you're over thinking things.

    It means she's kind of cute. Not ugly, not hot..just kind of cute.

    "You'd be hot if you lost weight" is a back handed compliment.


    People need to stop reading so much into what people say, their lives would be a lot simpler.

    Cute is a compliment. "Kinda cute" is less of a compliment. But cute is good. I get cute way too much LOL (in a good way). It's more a "young" look.

    If I get a compliment, I get "cute". Doesn't bother me.

    "Kinda cute" is sexy in the dark
    Cute is sexy in dim light
    it goes up from there.

    Me, I"m ugly in a scream and run kind of way

    To make a compliment about another woman to, or in front of my wife is suicide. But to say "kind of" cute might allow me to live to see the next day. It's like walking gently on thin ice. You definitely don't stomp.

    It could have been or she could have just thought she was kind of cute.

    It means shes very good looking, but he really doesn't want you to know he thinks that so he's only saying shes kinda cute. This is because he secretly is in love with you and wants you to think you are the only one he has eyes for.

    I'm just playing around. Who knows.

    Kinda cute - not such a compliment
    Beaten by the ugly tree and all the branches - for sure not a compliment

    Cute - eh is for puppies, kittens and such
    One hot momma - great compliment
    Super sexy - great compliment
    Hot is even a compliment


    back to kinda cute - not so much so

    LOL so if my husband says 'kinda cute' that really means something way better than kinda? OOOOoo He is in trouble tonight! (Just kidding, you didn't actually get my husband in trouble :P)

    I wouldn't mind being called cute. Heck, I would even settle for kind of cute.

    you being a 44 year old male makes this a lot more interesting now.

    ^^This. At least that's what I tell myself when someone says I'm kind of cute. I do overthink it though...kind of cute as in not quite hitting the cute status, or kind of cute as in the only thing you can think to say when you see a baby SO ugly it's...kind of cute.

    See my point?

    honestly, it means you are good looking (possibly even just strsight hot), but there's another reason I don't want to say that, like I'm married for example
