NEVER, NUNCA, EN ABSOLUTO
Sassy might work, witty maybe, funny but provocative,

Tarty behavior is whorish behavior

David, could you please implement a smiley with a purple eye?

We call it a black eye even if it's usually purple. It's also called a shiner. What's it called in Spanish?

Un ojo morado. That's why Alfonso translated a purple eye, instead of a black eye.

Not even I would go out with you after such a remark. I think this is the clearest answer to your question.

But I like how it sounds!
And not all the ladies are the same...
Puritanism!
On the other hand, it was you, Gemma, who said you are a pingo. And you translated pingo as a woman with a tarty behaviour. I thought you were proud of being so, which I would have considered an admirable and great personality.

I don't mind saying I'm tarty, but I don't want others to say it about me. Because when I say it about myself there is a lot of love in the remark...But when it comes from others...
By the way, I'll be wearing a beautifully tarty dress tomorrow. But don't tell any of your girlfriends:"That's a tarty dress you're wearing, I love it" You might end up with another ojo morado.

This is a great explanation about how to treat a lady. Unfortunately, I usually don't go out with ladies. Anyway, I've got my own way. Sure I'll put a lot of love next time I said: I love your tarty dress and dirty manners...

I feel tonight like saying some swearing and sweet words...

I hope you understand yourself, Alfonso, because you've lost me...

I'm sorry Gemma. I don't know what's worse: whether my English is wrong or my thought is raving.

Sure, it's not important.

BTW, looking forward to seeing your tarty dress...

Not as pretty as you. Your dress was beautiful and the colour suited you perfectly.

Apart from Don Juan there are many other literary characters that have snaked their way into every day language.
Eres una celestina.
The guy is a quixote.
Can you think of any other examples?
