        Although heinous traditionally means evil, it is used by many teenage girls to describe someone that is so horribly ugly or disgusting that it is almost evil in itself for that person to look that way.

        The word is not just used to describe extremely unattractive people, but it can also be applied to objects--especially clothing apparel.
