Sexy

/ˈseksi//ˈseksi/

**The word "sexy" is a relatively recent addition to the English language.** It emerged in the early 20th century, stemming from the word "sex." Originally, "sex" referred simply to the biological distinction between male and female. As attitudes towards sexuality evolved, "sex" began to carry connotations of eroticism. From there, "sexy" was born, initially describing something or someone that was sexually suggestive or stimulating.
