You're more than just a body. 你不仅仅是身体而已。

（16:43 完整英语的访谈｜English Interview starts at 16:43）

Alright, this is another one that I often hear and I find it can be a little bit offensive, it's like complimenting body parts. For example, like you have very beautiful legs or... Or other parts. Yeah, or other beautiful parts. Yeah, so yes, that can be, in Western culture, that can be seen as very forward, very aggressive, and almost without fail, any woman that you ask that to is going to kind of seize up and get very defensive and want to go away from you. For a woman asking a man that, it's not nearly as bad, but it's still, I wouldn't consider it very appropriate or very polite. For example, like feeling a guy's arm and then saying that, oh, you have muscle. Yeah. I mean, it's not as bad as the other way around, definitely. But it still wouldn't, generally, be received very well. 

好吧，这是我经常听到的另一个，我发现它可能有点冒犯，就像赞美身体部位一样。比如你有很漂亮的腿或者……或者其他部位。是的，或其他美丽的部位。是的，所以是的，在西方文化中，这可以被视为非常直接，非常有侵略性，而且几乎毫无例外，你要求的任何女人都会变得冷酷并变得非常防御并想要离开你。对于一个女人如果对一个男人这样说，这并没有那么糟糕，但我认为这仍不是很合适或很有礼貌。例如，感觉一个男人的手臂然后说，哇，你有肌肉。是的。我的意思是，绝对没有像男生对女生这样说那么糟糕。但总的来说，它仍然不会被很好地接受。

1.Offensive 冒犯的

2.Compliment 赞美

3.Aggressive 有侵略性的

4.Without fail 毫无意外

5.Seize up 失灵，不动的、变得冷酷

6.Defensive 防御的

7.Appropriate 恰当的

So a better way to compliment somebody and get their attention would be to compliment their clothes or their hair. Accessories. Accessories, yes, correct. Because you think about it in a sense of the person can't really change their body parts. T
