pretty boy

A young man who is in touch with himself and takes care of his hygiene. A young man who takes the time to look his best and is presentable. It does not make him homosexual or gay, he is just wanting to look good.
A young man who goes to the store and has to make sure that he is matching and his face is washed and teeth are brushed and clothes have been ironed. This is a Pretty Boy

Pretty

The word 'pretty' can be used in a multitude of ways. Not only can it be used as a descriptive term for something you've visually seen, it can also be used to describe a felt (mentally or emotionally) status, so to speak, of something or someone. While words like, for example, pretty, ugly, beautiful and hideous are all used at the opinion and discretion of the user, 'pretty' is often times a more readily used and agreed upon term to describe something or someone that is above average aesthetically. Be it an outfit, hairdo, painting, a persons face or a home, if its appearance is above average (but not considered to be to the level of gorgeous or beautiful) in its attractiveness, it could be considered 'pretty'.

As a feeling, it's generally used to proclaim an above - average opinion on something. It can, however, sometimes be used to describe something as only so-so. As you can tell, "pretty" has many uses. These are only a few definitions.
(Adjective)
"Tiffany has such pretty hair - I love its color!"

(Adverb)
"Did you watch that new comedy show on tv last night? It was pretty funny!"

(Idiom)

You're so pretty

Response to a completely inarticulate comment made by someone who should focus mostly on looking attractive to become successful. Verbal communication by this person is likely to cause embarrassment to this person and to those around her.

dirty pretty

Dirty pretty is a form of poetry which utilizes punctuation as a way of emphasizing words. Contrary to what many believe, it is NOT just random punctuation. It is about the calligraphy of words, using visuals to impact on the way the poem/emotions are seen and read. Although the content of dirty pretty poems varies, most pertain to drugs, sex, eating disorders, etc. Dirty pretty is a poetic art, and not everyone can master it. Many over-punctuate, making the poem hard to read and losing the true meaning of the piece.

Some truly great dirty pretty poets:
(found on allpoetry.com)
sinnocence
behind.blue.eyes
x Empathic Rose x
dancing marionette
Melicious--x
Queen of Anonymity
(bear in mind that these poets write in other forms too)
Normal poetic stanza:
He kisses me so slowly,
His lips so soft against mine.
But then he turns and walks away,
And I weep at our final goodbye.

In dirty pretty format:
He {k i s s e s} me so

His.lips.so.soft.against.mine

But then he turns
&& w a l k s . a w a y
&& I <<| weep |>> at our final
