That's a tough one.
I'm sure plenty of guys just compliment ladies just to get in the sack and what not.
But seriously, some of the first relationship advice men and women both give to younger men is to always compliment the lady. Try watching a sitcom about a boy meets girl situation and not have that advice come up!
Men compliment ladies because they respond to it so well. Ladies with baggage (who have been burned by a guy that is charming aka slings the compliments out) tend to have your point of view. Not saying you have baggage, just saying that it's probably one or two guy's fault for making you think like that.
If a man compliments you, please don't automatically think it has an alterior motive. I promise you, 90% of the time, they are seriously just trying to break the ice, or trying to provoke that bright eyed smile we love so much.
