cheesecake
The primary sense refers to a specific type of dessert. While often treated as a countable noun when referring to whole cakes, it is frequently used as an uncountable mass noun when referring to slices or the substance itself, often requiring partitives like "a piece of" or "a slice of" for precision.
In a socio-pragmatic context, the second sense is a slang term originating from the mid-20th century. It describes pin-up style imagery and carries a connotation of superficial sexual appeal. This usage is primarily found in older media contexts or specific artistic discussions and is considered informal and potentially dated.
