... Good question. I've only known one truly beautiful woman in my life, but it was her lovely heart that made her outer appearance just that much more beautiful. Personally, beautiful isn't a word I think I'll use again, and definitely not lightly if I do use it; To me, a girl that's hot isn't necessarily even pretty, but there's definitely something super sexy about them; pretty ~ lots of pretty girls out there, but it's a shame when the personality doesn't match; sexy ~ this is not the same as hot to me; a girl can be sexy, but one that's hot appeals to me personally; georgeous ~ never seen one yet; cute ~ endearing, lots of girls are cute. Maybe I'm odd in this way, but with very attractive women I rarely compliment them on their beauty ~ they heard this stuff a thousand times from a thousand guys, so I think it holds little value. If I see something else about them that I like, I'll compliment them on that instead.
