Genteel - an affected manner, like holding your little finger in the air while sipping your Lapsang Souchong or Earl Grey from fine bone china. Cheers, old bean! :)

Erotica - literature or art intended to sexually excite. "Pee, po, belly, bum, let's talk rude" by Jilly Cooper doesn't quite qualify, I suspect ... ;)))

Intrepid - not afraid of danger or difficulties. Fictional heroes are always said to be this, whereas in cruel reality they often behave as antonyms of it, like daft, idiotic, unhinged, thick or dimwitted ... 8-|

Embellish - decorate in order to make more attractive. So presumably some folk actually like the appearance of arms absolutely covered in garish tattoos, devoid of any taste or purpose. Unbelievable. :-\

Atrophy - what happens to the head of an animal shot by a big game hunter and not properly preserved. Also what happens to the hunter's reputation if he posts pictures on social media bragging about the kill.
