Hate to break it to you but one common complaint from women is that men compliment them on their bodies before they have known each other and have gone out a few times.
The compliments that work early on are something about her character, empathy or personality, or achievements at work (if she has brought them up). I even have a colleague I've known awhile that says if she just got some new glasses that it would be a creepy thing for a man to compliment them in any way. So getting in soon via compliments is an urban myth that sounds good on paper, but rarely works.
OK so you're one out of 20 who likes it, and I truly appreciate that; however, the other 19 tell me I'm a sexist pig if I mention anything about their body, as if I'm objectifying them.
This is why I don't generally compliment anyone, at least not until I've gone out with her 5-6 times, because people can't really distinguish between my sincere motives and the motives that Cosmo et al say all men have (which is frankly sexist propaganda against men, btw). Not worth the trouble, frankly, as the odds are truly against.
IIN I can't see if their pupils get dilated when chatting up women?

Bah! This is what I get from all of my experience coming from the Internet.
