I can understand how certain women could be considered "cute" when they're mad. However, only a complete buffoon would actually admit this - Wait a minute... Dammit!
Seriously though, it should be obvious to even the most socially-handicapped individual that telling a woman that she looks cute when she's genuinely upset is the most rude and unproductive thing he could do in that situation. I can think of two types of fellows who would actually do this:
1.) A complete idiot might tell a woman that she is cute at such a time in an attempt to distract her from the issue at hand. Of course, most women will simply think to themselves at that point, "does he really believe that he can distract me from what I'm trying to say by using such a pedantic appeal to my vanity? Does he really think that I'm that simple-minded?" -And then, she'll get MUCH more angry. Obviously, this child-psychology kind of approach won't work on most women. HOWEVER, I imagine that it might actually work on one of the extremely vain ones. I can see it now:
her: "I CANNOT Believe that you spent all of our rent money on gambling and prostitutes!"
him: "Damn! You are so hot when you're angry!"
her: "Really? I just got a new haircut, bought a new pair of shoes, etc, etc, etc...."
But I'm getting embarrassingly distracted; let's return to the other type:
2.) An insensitive, self-centred churl might say this just to get a rise out of a woman who he doesn't really give a damn about. Perhaps it's a power issue. A translation might be, "Your opinion means so little to anyone that you should just shut up; you're simply something to look at for my enjoyment". I pity any woman who stays with a man who treats her in such a disparaging, cruel, and ungentlemanly manner.
I can't imagine how annoyed I'd feel if someone *who I actually cared for, mind you* refused to take me seriously. Luckily, most of my friends are not complete bastards. I've heard that there are numerous ways to show kindness/affection in a relationship. Each person has his own unquie desires in a relationship. For me, respect is undeniably the most important. I'm not talking about respect in regards to some kind of "equality" ideal or as a formal set of rules/etiquette. Respect to me is simply behaving in such a way that shows another person that you consider him valuable and appreciated. It's very simple. On the other hand, this post is in so many ways the most chaotic, schizophrenic thing I've posted on gnet yet. Angelic's posts must be having an effect on me. ~Just kidding, man; you're cool.
