That doesn't mean it's OK to walk round to a friend's house, take one look at them and say "WOW change that jumper you look like a burst pack of sausages" completely without prompt.

As a real world example, my wife sometimes asks me if her eyebrows are even and I will give an honest appraisal. If she comes downstairs and I notice they are uneven and she hasn't asked... do I say anything? NO, what madness!
