In all seriousness, the reason guys don't use the word "cute" is because complementing the looks of an individual of the same sex is erroneously considered to mean that one has homosexual tendencies. The reason why women can get away with it is because lesbianism has been accepted since women are nothing more than sex objects and woman on woman "action" is considered "hot." So a woman who calls another woman "cute" is only fulfilling her role as a sex object in society's eyes. Where as men are not sex object thus they cannot do these "hot" things since that would be downgrading their status. So I am constrained by the social cultural belief that women are nothing more than sex objects and men are more than their gender, so no. I do not call guys "cute." But let's face it. All men can recognize when another guy looks good. We are just raised to be disgusted at the idea of acknowledging it due to the double standard.
