A cat call is not a compliment. Yelling at a random stranger is awkward, embarrassing, and sometimes it can even be quite scary.
Telling someone you know and who is comfortable with your presence that you think they look nice today… that is a compliment.
Yelling, “Hey baby! Nice patoot!" at someone you don’t know on the street… that is harassment.
And even if you do know the person, it’s always nice to gauge their reaction to compliments. Some people can get anxious and just do not know how to react. If you feel it makes them uncomfortable, then you absolutely should wait until your opinion is asked.
