Pretty: A girl who is beautiful, elegant, one who can look great without showing alot of skin. The kind of girl that painters want to make portraits of. I don't think pretty is anything like cute however. Some guys lump them together, but to me pretty is a more mature, womanly look, where cute is a more girly look.
Hot: A girl with sex appeal. The type that shows off her body. Basicly a more "slutty" kind of attractive. I don't mean to say that hot girls are all sluts, but I just don't know how else to word it. Both are good, but of the two I prefer pretty. It's also possible to be both at the same time, but it's rare to see a girl like that. Often times the pretty girls have a better personality, but not always. The best example I can think of to show the differance bewteen the two is actually from anime LOL. If you've seen "Ah! Megami Sama" you'll know what I mean. Belldandy is a pretty girl, Urd is a hot girl. How ya doing, buddy? |
"Pretty girls usually have a better personality." Aaahahaha. That's probably about as ridiculous as the mind-numbing foolishness reached in the Gamer Girl vs. Hot Girl thread. How ya doing, buddy? |
Can I ask why is the distinction necessary?
For all I care, they are still women, with female sexual organs. I was speaking idiomatically. |
So my application to that on the female side was that it applies to women too. Sure there are ugly women who are totally not nice people. But, I've always believed that I'm not one of those good-looking people, so I valued how people would view my inner beauty. As I shared this with my beautician (whom I've known for almost 3 yrs now), she told me that was the most endearing thing (to her) about myself. My response to that was: "Can I help it that I have a more attractive personality compared to those 5'10" C-cup gorgeous women that can probably get anyone to do anything for them? C'mon, I gotta compete somewhere, and height or boobs ain't getting me anywhere so there's not much else to work with!" It was meant to be a joke and we both got a good laugh out of it. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Is this limited to physical descriptions? If so, "pretty" people are those who look pleasing to the eyes, attractive and beautiful in a way that a man and a woman can appreciate his/her beauty in a non-malicious manner. "Hot", to my understanding, are people who tend to ooze in sex appeal, usually the ones who give an erotic "feel" the moment you lay your eyes on them.
It's like reading a fashion magazine and a porn mag, the difference is clearly there. FELIPE NO |
Hot Pretty I guess the distinction would be, I would rail a woman like Selma Hayek, but I'd be more apt to pursue an actual relationship with someone like Allison Mack. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? Posting without content since 2002. |

Maybe some men think a woman's height is important. This would be news to me.
I'm all about proportionality. There's nowhere I can't reach. Posting without content since 2002. |
An incredibly tall girl can be intimidating to a guy, but other than that I don't know any guy who considers height to be incredibly important in determining attractiveness.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
hot is material, temporary, and "socially accepted"
pretty is natural, real, and in a way, more subtle... i prefer pretty Most amazing jew boots |
I think everyone is making this too complicated. If a woman is at least somewhat pretty and self-confident, all she has to do is put on certain clothes and go into sexy mode and voilà ! Now she's hot.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
I'm for pretty.
But hot is still pretty darn good too lol What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I find hotness and prettiness determined by personality as well as looks. As alice pointed out, one can change their looks pretty easily to make themselves look "hot" simply by wearing more revealing clothes, etc. Personality goes a long way for making a girl appear hot though. Especially concerning her level of openness talking about certain subjects like sex or boyfriends (or girlfriends :-O). Bashful girls aren't hot even if they're wearing skimpy clothing; they're still bashful.
FELIPE NO |
On a different note, I've met quite a few girls who, while mildly cute, decide to run around calling each other hot bitches (and I don't think it's sarcasm). It kind of disturbs me. People calling themselves "hot" when they're 40+ pounds overweight tells me that they're too lazy to diet or exercise but still like pretending in their heads that they're the same general level of attractiveness as someone not overweight. Silly self-deception.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
yep, just like many of you said hot=sex appeal and pretty=more natural, just pleasing to the eye
and i agree that personality has nothing to do w/ it. i also agree w/ alice about being able to make yourself hot. guys i meet usually would say i'm pretty/cute but then if they see me at the beach or just in something a little more revealing they say i'm hot :P so yeah Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I prefer pretty. Statistically speaking, a hot girl will be full of herself, materialistic, high maintenance, potentially stupid, etc. Pretty girls are down to Earth and appealing on a physical/intellectual level. That's been my most immediate impression in this country and especially at the gym I work at. So far anyway.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
To me pretty is more naturally good-looking, when hot is more sex appeal, but that is not always the case.
I think context is the key. If I see a naturally pretty girl, I'll ask a friend if he thinks she is hot. But if I were to describe her I'd say she has a pretty face, nice body, etc. How ya doing, buddy?

Or is it soley based upon physical attributes?? How ya doing, buddy? |
Pretty = Face.
If you're described as pretty, you most likely have a good looking face. Not to say your body isn't good looking, it's just not very noticeable. Pretty inspires love more than lust. Eyes = Pretty Hot = Body If you're described as hot, chances are you've got curves in all the right places in your body. Not to say your face isn't good looking, it's may be anything from great to resistible. Breasts, Butt, Legs = Hot I'm sure there are words where both categories would fall into one. Like, Sexy. Sexy = Face and Body work together as one. My two cents I was speaking idiomatically. |
I have a friend and she is very pretty. I see her occasionally in school and every time I see her I think she's so pretty and no one can top her. She is a nice person by the way. Then there was this time I went to an event where she was performing on stage and she wore this amazing dress and styled her hair in curls. She was so beautiful I was literally mesmerized. Then there was another time we went out to a club and she was so freaking HOT. I was like "Woa, where has this side of her been hiding?" What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
FELIPE NO |
Well luckily for me my girlfriend is both.
Did you hear that I said yeah that's right. ps. thanks for the image pom since I'll get to use it all the time. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I prefer pretty, myself. I'll take a baggy T-Shirt and Tennis Shoes over a sleek Evening Dress and High Heels any day of the week.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Either or both. Not trying to sound desperate or anything, but I like both alot.

It sucks when you are told you are hot when you find it insulting. Hot to me is an insult, just as sexy is. Pretty is..."meh"...not beautiful but appealing. Cute is an insult.
Beautiful is much better than pretty, if you are going to compliment somebody. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
