"Delicate Baby Bird" Is this common?.. [more inside]

[Omphaloskepsis]

I had a female roommate who called me her "delicate baby bird." This was about four years ago. Last night at a party a girl said the same thing. Is this a common phrase? Or just some weird coincidence.

I am a dainty man.

1. What do you mean, dainty? Do you mean you are considerate

and kind? Or something else?

2. I was shooting for fragile..

Slender wrist and tiny hands.

as per google: delicately beautiful :-)

3. Well, in that context, I think it is a compliment.

Someone that she wants to care for.
