Picture someone walking into a room and heads turning — not the calm, picture-like kind of good-looking, but something that pulls attention and keeps hold of it. Sexy names that pull. English then lends the same pull to ideas and things: whatever makes people lean in can be called sexy too.

可以想成有人走進房間,大家的頭都轉過去——不是那種安靜、像一幅畫的好看,而是有什麼把注意力吸住、放不掉。sexy 講的就是那股吸力。英文後來把同一股吸力借給點子和東西:會讓人想湊近看的,也可以叫 sexy。
