Yes and no thats a safe answer. Maybe though yes and no is more yes than no.
No, I'd go with the safe answer every time. It's what I reply when my wife comes out of the changing rooms wearing a god awful dress and says "Does my bum look big in this?"
If I said yes I would be in big trouble. If I said no then she would buy the god awful dress.
By saying yes and no, I can then have thinking time to qualify that by coming up with something like "you have a gorgeous figure, Mildred, but the awful way that the dress has been tailored makes your rear end look disproportionately massive."
I may receive a playful cuff with a fully loaded handbag, but at least I wouldn't have to sleep outside with the dog for a week, as usually happens.
