However, in the normal course of events, with someone with whom you are acquainted, a tasteful compliment is fine. I try to stay away from comments like "Wow, you've really got a nice tight a**." On the other hand, "You look really great today." seems to be received well.
Christ on a crutch! Is there no sense of nuance, decorum, in such issues?
These "cultural libertarians" think things like politeness, decorum, and basic social graces is "oppressive censorship" and they have a right to say whatever goes through their mind completely unfiltered. IMO it represents the "let it all hang out" element of the last 2T taken to it's absurd logical conclusion.
