Women Share The Compliments They Hate The Most

A few weeks ago I was playing a video game online when another player catcalled my female avatar. So, ladies, I get it. I completely understand your experience of getting cat called on the street. I am woke now.
I know exactly how stressful it is to have an elf with two swords riding a falcon ambush you with what he thinks are compliments. I know that trying to be nice back because you’re afraid he might get angry and launch a fireball at you and take your helmet that you spent weeks trying to get it. I also know the sheer relief when you open your social menu and click the mute button.
Turns out though some fellows have not had this very eye opening and very accurate experience. Maybe it’s because they don’t want to learn, or maybe it’s because they are filthy noobs who don’t even know the difference between a kobold and a troll. Whatever the case may be, take note gentlemen.
#1 Forward.
One time a guy in high school said he liked my smile and wanted to cum on my dimples. It was the first time we had met

#2 Is it contagious?
“I’ve got Yellow Fever.”
…………………….ok? Ew. Stop. Don’t hit on me just because I’m Asian.

#3 Get it? Because she is black!
When people call me milk chocolate, African princess, nubian queen. Like calm down

#4 Maybe don't sexualize Jesus.
I’m a black chick with dreadlocks so I attract a lot of hoteps and weird “spiritual” old dudes. I’ve been told I look like “black Jesus” and “one of the original Hebrews–you know they were African. They don’t want you to know your history!!”

#5 This may come as a surprise to you but...
Men who feel the need to point out how big my tits are. A guy that I saw around campus DM’ed me on instagram and said, “just thought you should know, you have some really big boobs.” No shit, they aren’t on my chest or anything.

#6 I need a woman who can make a good knot.
“I like women like you. Cute, but not pretty.” Also, every time my family takes out our boat and puts it in the water i do the rope (pull it to the dock when it floats off the trailer). A man offers to help, i refuse, and then they comment on how amazing it is I was able to do that. Ive been doing it since I was 9, its not hard at all…

#7 Two-thirds of a compliment sandwich
Any compliment that follows the “you sure are x for a y.” Such as, “you sure are pretty for a woman your age.” Or “you sure are smart for a girl.”
Just bad form all around.

#8 How else are we supposed to know?
I think the best one recently is, “Oh, you don’t look like you’re Mexican”. “You’re so pretty for being Mexican”. Like what???? Am I supposed to have sombrero and mustache, orrrrrr???

#9 Why do people keep bring up race.
“You’re hot for an Asian” and “I’ve always wanted to get with an Asian”
1) didn’t know Asians were universally ugly, and that I’m an exception
2) thanks for reducing me to a check mark on your bucketlist

#10 How'd they fit such a big brain inside that pretty head of yours?
After a woman does something really badass or something that demonstrates how smart she is…don’t immediately complement her looks, it’s not as nice as you may mean it to be!

#11 You make it sound like negging doesn't work.
A guy desperate for attention: “Hey I noticed you have [insert flaw] … but it looks good on you!”
The flaw is usually something pretty obvious that others are aware of but too polite to bring up: like a massive scar, messed up teeth, or a slightly lazy eye.
Thanks, I’m aware of that particular feature and I try not to think about it or draw attention to it. Now my self-esteem is shot.

#12 Okay. I'll switch.
“A lesbian? But you’re so pretty, you could find a boyfriend real quick.”

#13 This dude will fight very hard to convince you he isn't racist.
“You’re too pretty to be Latina” and all of its variations. Dude, Latin America is full of beautiful women and also full of ugly women, just like any other part of the world. Insulting my ethnicity won’t get you anywhere…
