OP Question arises from considering Carmina Burana:
One of the sections contains the text "Veni, veni pulchra." Which if I'm not mistaken means "Come hither, lovely one" or "C'mere, babe!" depending on which vernacular you are using for the moment.
Is not then "feminine pulchritude" linguistically redundant? How can there be any other kind?
