Interesting, at least to me, question/comment. To me, heated = energetic.
Sharp = intelligent. But your "point" (dare i say "sharp"?) is well
taken. (But certainly not "dull") Wonder: should we be "warm" but not
heated?, not dull but never sharp?
Lord I HOPE its not so simple (complicated) as a "girl/boy" thing as you
considered!
