I don't compliment guys as I find they tend to take it as a sexual invitation as well as I find most guys have inflated egos so I don't see any reason to add to it or support it with a compliment.
I think it's just your girlfriend or maybe your culture.
I wouldn't compliment a man that I don't know, but I always compliment men that I'm seeing. Guy friends get compliments from me when they look particularly nice, too.
MountainGuy74 has obviously never lived in the South, or has never dated a Southern girl.
Guys, you will get plenty of compliments from Southern girls, but be prepared, because a Southern girl will speak her mind and tell you about or question your seemingly wrong choices in clothing/style &/or behavior.
Southern girls prefer their men to look and act like men. It might be the culture of the Deep South, that is less accepting of freak-show, girly man attire...........meaning if you dress like Bieber or that scraggly, hippie haired doofus on the tv show, 'Criminal Minds'.........you'll get laughed at by pretty young southern girls.
Notice that there are no LA looking, almost feminine styles on any men in Country Music or NASCAR, etc.
No Seacrest looking guys or Bieber looking guys...... One is it is blazing hot in the South from April 1st through Oct 15th and guys with extreme hair styles with tons of product is extremely unusual in the south for any heterosexual.
Girls in the south spend a lot of time on their hair but find it very strange if their boyfriend has to spend more than four minutes on his. Though the south was famous for the long shoulder length grown out Keith Partridge hairstyle with beards and mustaches from about 1971 to as late as 1986 before favoring the long mullet for the next eight years or so... The South which was once five years behind everywhere else and when they finally adopted a look they usually went to the worst extreme of that look...........................that was once the typical Southern young man's look......a walk on the bad side (bad as in awful, and not cool).
LOL, just as the South finally shed its backwards thinking and ways, no longer do the young ladies in the South like being seen out on dates with guys that don't look like guys, or guys that look like Grizzly Adams swamp creatures.
Southern girls are sweet and talkative and very complimentary but if you look like the south end of a northbound mule, they will sweetly laugh and tell you why, and they will say because yall know that a guy should look like a guy and have manners and be polite, because that is how they are raised in the South.

I actually think it's partly because as men, it is expected that we don't need to be constantly propped up, and low self-esteem is not as acceptable. Also, guys giving each other compliments - well about their looks, too much, is seen as gay, whereas with women it's just to bolster self-esteem. Women are more likely to be fake nice and say things they don't mean either. Also, some men taking a woman complimenting them as a sign she likes them, something she may not want him to think.
