A friend of a friend referred to me as a 'spunk' today.
My friend now says I should ask her out on a date, but for my own satisfaction, I'd like to know if this word is meant in a complimentary or derogatory way, just so I don't look like an idiot if I make an approach and she didn't mean it in a complimentary way??
Thanks for your help

Thanks for the answers so far.
The work is definately SPUNK, as she said, 'he is a spunk'
Being an Englishman, I know that in general use the word spunk is slang for semen.
I just didn't know whether in the context the word was said meant that it was a complimentary or derogatory term, thanks, sorry for the confusion if I caused any

Hard to say. To say someone has spunk is what the people above had said. But to say you are spunk (or a spunk), I've never heard. Use the word like that, it means semen, which may not be a compliment. Ask her out anyway. What do you have to lose, but a little pride?

When you describe someone as having a lot of spunk, its a compliment. It means they have guts, courage and personality.

Spunk is an English word for sperm. Maybe she meant you're well endowed.

...and u r sure she didnt refer to u as a punk? well saying u r a spunk is kinda weird. saying u have spunk would mean u have a lot of energy, vivaciousness, lust for life. and if shes just after ur spunk, then go for it lol, cuz spunk is a term for sperm lol

It basically means you've got style and more or less just a noticeable attitude and personality.
