Describes someone perceived as conservative, behind the times, or uncool. Can be affectionate or mildly dismissive depending on tone.

Derived from a vulgar root but commonly used in informal speech to describe someone whose judgment is clouded by strong physical or romantic attraction. Usually applied to women in this form; the male equivalent is 'encalentado' or similar expressions.
