Cis man here. Is being called cute by a partner something bad? Partner has called me cute (but also handsome at other times) and I never associated cute with strictly female when it comes to romantic nicknames. Like calling someone a baby doesn't mean they have actual baby traits.
That being said, while we speak English with each other, it's the native tongue of neither of us, so maybe this is just a language thing here that I miss.
It can be when the cute is all you ever hear from anyone. The kind of adult man that gets called cute regularly here in the US (I've not spent any time in other countries to really say anything about elsewhere) tend to be smaller physically. Even as teenagers, it isn't as likely for a taller, more muscled boy to be called cute.
It's one of those things where it isn't too bad by itself, but in combination with other factors it becomes less fun for the person.
Obviously, there's no hard and fast rule, people vary too much for that. But it does bother guys often enough to be a situation I've run into with friends a good bit.
