About this Quote

In this quote, actress Natalie Portman is expressing her perspective on being called "cute" by a guy. She suggests that being called cute is not always a compliment, however rather something that is more fitting for a pet. This could indicate that being called charming reduces an individual to a level of innocence or simplicity, rather than being viewed as attractive or desirable. Portman's declaration might also suggest that being called charming can be purchasing from or belittling, as if the individual is being treated like a family pet rather than an equivalent. In general, Portman's words highlight the intricacy and subjectivity of language and how it can impact our perceptions of ourselves and others.
