I can tell if a girl is hot or not...
All guys can do this whether they want to admit it or not, some are more comfortable saying it than others.

I find personally find it much "gayer" and extremely immature to deny that.

But finding men "hot"... no way. "Hotness" is only connected to women in my vocabulary.
Exactly, a lot of guys think if they say another guy is good looking that people are gonna interpret that as him being attracted to him. Guys are too paranoid about stuff like that.

oh for heaven...

of course guys can tell when other guys are good looking. There are certain criteria of beauty everyone's aware of. I can tell if a guy is good looking. Although sometimes I'm surprised by girls telling me a guy I thought was good looking being ugly to them and vice versa.

I notice that too, you see some guys who look like shrek and some girls saying how attractive they are, there are cases like that which make no sense to most guys.

For the most part I can tell the difference. Every once in a while my wife will say that some celeb is hot and I just don't see it. I think there are things other than traditional physical beauty that a straight guy doesn't pick up on.

There is nothing gay about recognizing good looks in another man. A guy can recognize a good looking dog, horse, car, etc. without wanting to sex them up.

Yes it is. It's recognizing beauty in a totaly non sexual way. How do you look at men?

I have to agree with most of the posters here. I can also tell the difference between ugly guys and really good looking guys. Average guys and good lookers? Totally clueless. Hell, there's been times when women have said a guy is really good looking, and I thought the dude was ugly, so in the end wtf do I know...

You can appraise beauty objectively with the living and inanimate I think, there isnt that big a distinction.

Let me ask you something. If you would have to choose of who is more beautiful: Tim Sylvia or Vitor Belfort - you would say "I can't tell, because I am not attracted to men." ...c'mon!
