Do compliments from certain people mean more to you than if they come from certain other people?

This was prompted by the “What’s the best compliment any one ever gave you” thread.

I got compliments galore from guys. I’d just smile nicely and say, “Thank you. It was all an accident.”

However, one time another female (who was heterosexual) told me “You have beautiful eyes!” that made me grin and give her a heart-felt “Thanks!” :) Actually, a couple of heterosexual women have told me that, and I knew they weren’t BSing, hoping to get me into bed, so it really meant something coming from them.
