Is it an insult to call a male pretty?

Edit later on: Neji! I honestly think you are pretty! I'm not insincere about it! It's not an insult!
Someone suggested you could change your look when it bothers you...

Although there are males that are deemable as pretty - it may be that the said male would find it degrading to fall under a female trait and may take it as an insult - which would give off an insecurity to the person that you are wishing to compliment.

[youthfullgreen]

But why do they think that a female trait is an insult?

[samusxaran]

It's a good question, yet it probably has to do with fact that men detest being affiliated with feminism.

[youthfullgreen]

But females aren't something bad!

... well, handsome is normally meant for boys but ...
With some pretty happens to fit better.

[youthfullgreen]

So you don't think it's an insult, Rosalie-san?

[jealousvampire]

No, I don't really think so.

That's good... but perhaps he hates me now...

Lee....you could've just asked me instead of the entire community.... But thank you. I realize you wouldn't says something you didn't mean, but it's odd to accept such an awkward compliment.
I could try cutting my hair

D-does it trouble you?
You're welcome. Do you feel less manly when I call you that way?

I-I admit I prefer the way you look now, though...

Well I admit, I would prefer you to ask me instead of everyone...
I admit I'm reluctant to do so anyway. I don't think it would help anyway. I'd just prefer if you used something other than 'pretty'...

Re: [Voice]

[youthfullgreen]

I-I see... but I just wanted to know the general opinion about it...
Other than pretty... ?

[pause]

I REALLY LIKE YOUR MANLY FEATURES!!!
