People I’ve been close to—and even people I haven’t—often tell me I’m “sexy” in a risqué way. Is there a difference between being erotic and being sexy?

Thank you in advance.
I get told I’m “sexy” in a crude way too. I’d rather be told I’m actually sexy.
What I often hear is, “Damn, you’ve got such a dirty ass…”
It’s not like I’m trying to look erotic, so I wish they wouldn’t say things like that. I just want to be called sexy.

I get told that pretty often too.
I take it the way Kazu and BB7 understand it.
So I think some people might not want to be called that, depending on the person.

What’s the difference between “erotic” and “sexy”…?
Somehow, “erotic” sounds a bit more vulgar to me.
Maybe it’s just the way people phrase it?!
I’m nowhere near erotic or sexy myself, so no one’s ever said that to me—I’m jealous!
You must have an amazing hourglass figure!!

“Ero” feels more physical, straightforward, and direct.
“Sexy” feels more conceptual, refined, and stylish.
If you’re going for something raw and realistic, I’d say “ero” fits better.

I think “sexy” is indirectly sexual, while “ero” is directly sexual. In other words, “ero” is closer to sexual activity.
The context and the speaker’s vocabulary probably have a much greater influence, so I don’t think it’s worth worrying about too much.
