"sexy" I hate this word - it is so overused on television. I was watching Oprah one day a couple of years ago- something I rarely do since I have kids - and it was a home makeover show. I thought, ok, this will be safe to watch. WRONG. They must have used the word "sexy" twice in every sentence spoken. I am not exaggerating. How do you explain the meaning of that word to a five year old?

I want to gag when I hear food described as sexy. Isn't there a more approriate adjective out there?
There is a weight loss product advertised by actual customers - one woman on the ad said, "now the kids say mommy's sexy" What kid says that about their mother????? ARgggghhhhh. Can you tell this one makes my blood boil?
