A Clarification: On Beauty

People too often throw around words like beautiful when describing women.  I don't. If I use the word beauty, I do so with a very specific definition in mind.

There are a thousand words, gorgeous, pretty, stunning, to mean aesthetically pleasing, something nice to look at, and just as many to mean sexually attractive.  Beautiful, though, is a word that I treasure.  It's a rarity, in the world, and so much more than just those things, though they're a part of it, when it comes to a woman.  Any woman can be pretty, or even sexy, but a beautiful woman, one who is as attractive inside as out, who stirs the heart as well as the loins, stimulates the mind and trips the muse to spinning, is a much less common thing.
