Context: I am currently actively suppressing the urge to say someone is pretty.

      Yeah I agree with this as well. Like for most Anglos sex and nudity are inseparably intertwined, as if there's no reason to be nude except as a prelude to sex.

      Again, it's like a strain of puritanism or other hyper hard core religious conservatism. A milder version of Islamic fundamentalists forcing women to wear Burkhas lest men be tempted by their faces or some shit.

      And yeah, a few people in this thread jumping to the conclusion of "harrasment" when talking about compliments, which is just absurd. At least where I am, most people enjoy giving and receiving compliments based on their appearance as long as it's not overtly sexual. Like, yeah don't go up to people and tell them they have nice tits or anything.
