But if someone complimented me on my looks, even if it was unwanted, I don't see how I would be offended or hurt by that?

I think that's an awesome example of what people don't understand in general. From what I understand, compliments are often perceived as a gateway to further advances that may very well be unwanted. Sincere, polite, appropriate compliments are of course fine and appreciated. But it's certainly not up to a man to assess what is appropriate to a woman and vice versa. We've all seen the creepy guy who just won't leave it alone. That's the problem. Not the other kind.
