okay - here's one chick-take on it all:
The first time I went to the ballet, I wore a new dress and did the whole make-up thing, and was most gratified when my beau at the time told me I looked stunning.

I think when someone tells you you're stunning it's generally meant as a compliment, and I don't know that I would ever take it another way. Isn't the goal occasionally to look so beautiful a man is left speechless? He's stunned, you're stunning.

Thinking it over. Hmmmm .... I would consider "stunning" a compliment.
Considering further it came to me I was not told I was stunning until I was well out of my teens. Before that I had my share of compliments but ... do you think a teen could be stunning or does it take more poise - more maturity - to be a stunning woman. Stunning teen doesn't feel or sound right to me! As for these days I am delighted to hear "Lookin' good!"

I agree very few teens are stunning.

Let me clarify that, I would rarely call a teen, or a man stunning. And those men that are stunning are usually, as previously pointed out, wearing a dress.

Lookin' good, wow!

Instead of spending a lot of money on style, carry a slaughter house stun gun, and an electric stock prod, for those males who like to be stunned and electrified. Closing my Oscar the Grouch trashcan lid.
