Sex kitten is a term that typically refers to a woman who goes around with a sexually provocative approach. It also refers to women with abundant sexual aggression. The term originated circa 1958, and was used to describe French starlet and pouty nymphette Brigitte Bardot, who appeared in the 1956 film And God Created Woman, though a term similar has been used as early as in ancient Egypt when people would refer to their partners as kittens. It has also often been used in association with Ann-Margret, star of the 1964 film Kitten with a Whip. However, it does not always describe the youthful.
