What does "être trop minet" mean?
Is it an insult? According to the dictionary it means cat, so I don't get it when someone says "tu es trop minet". Is it something offensive?

Answer

Hi,
That's a tough one. "Minet"'s figurative sense is that of a somewhat trendy and not very manly young man. An example : 'tu aimes bien Cédric ?' - 'Tu rigoles ? Il est vraiment trop minet'. '

Answer

Well, I'm French and I never heard anyone use this expression... :-/
