I find it fascinating how women can compliment each other about their looks and not attach any homosexual undertones to it. Yet, if men do it most feel they have to add a "No homo" disclaimer. I just think "C'mon man, be a woman".

Then again if a man compliments a woman there are also often sexual intentions

True but my thinking was more of undertones than intentions. A man's no homo disclaimer seems to stem to from the appearance of loss of masculinity while still trying to convey a somewhat feminine trait of revealing one's self with the compliment. Whereas if it's between a man and a woman I think it can be taken as a sincere, non-sexual compliment or more but the need to over-emphasize masculinity isn't there.

You’re probably right but again I think all this nuance is often lost on me. I can’t catch it. I will ponder for a bit to see if it sinks in.

Does that mean I can still see you in leather boots? Because from here you look
