I (woman) complimented a person who appeared like the perfect example of androgynous. They were alluring as far as looks and I really liked their style (dark academia). I told them “You look beautiful/handsome.” They gave me a look and scoffed. AITA?
No some ppl just picky about what type of compliments they want to hear, NTA

I don’t think the beautiful/handsome is what threw them off as much as the type of compliment you went for. Picking a specific thing like outfit/style/haircut is less off-putting
