[quote=Anonymous]PP here--I think "innocent" captures it better than "harmless." But the more I think about it, it really does have an ironic meaning. I usually hear it to mean innocent-looking, but not truly innocent. http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/butter-wouldn-t-melt-in-sb-s-mouth But interested that PPs have a completely different viewpoint; prim, proper, emotionally cool. Wonder if it's a British vs. American English difference? (I'm British)[/quote]
