Is it rude or cute to use one's lips (';making nguso';) in pointing?

For some Filipinos: Yea..it's cute.





For other nationalities:


They have no idea what you are trying to say so you better use your finger when pointing at something... but some still thinks it's cute or maybe unusual.. %26lt;*-*%26gt;Is it rude or cute to use one's lips (';making nguso';) in pointing?

I do that all the time now. I find it to be cute.


The good thing about it is if I want to point some person out to my wife the 'nguso' isn't as obvious as the finger poining.
Not rude for a Filipino...
Not only rude but boorish. Lips is for smiling and kissing and therefore to use lips for direction purposes is just unpleasant.
Its very rude especially if you are blaming someone.
it's somewhat irritating but funny...
Maybe but it's still better than using your erect...............middle finger
It's normal for Filipinos to point direction with nguso, especially when your hands are busy.
It is cute, and sometimes convenient when your hands are not free, to point with your pursed lips.. Either that, or point with your foot hahahaha.
I think it depends on the context. Formal setting, or if you are answering to someone older, then it is rude to make nguso.





If both your hands are occupied, then it's ok. Although a simple point and nod of the head should suffice.





If between friends or strangers of about equal state, then it's ok.
i like a girl who pointing his lips than her finger but not a man.
i've only seen pinoys do that. yeah kinda cute for some girls. almost sexy.
To many people it is, for that would depend upon their culture %26amp; upbringing.





But to a few other cultures all over the world, the Philippines included, it is practiced quite frequently %26amp; have a general acceptance %26amp; is understood by most people-so it isn't really perceived as rude or gross.





The issue about this is that the person doing it goes to another country %26amp; continue to do it there, believe that it is universal until somebody asks them something like, what are you doing? Especially to people who are too involved in etiquettes %26amp; man-made rules usually made up by people in the 1800s.
