• I added a textual version. Feel free to remove if it in fact that's wrong somehow (e.g., details of typeface are critical). – Gareth McCaughan Nov 30 '19 at 17:11
• Pelecan or Pelican? – Omega Krypton Nov 30 '19 at 17:26
• Pelecan is correct. – Thomas Markov Nov 30 '19 at 17:28
• But Pelecan isnt even a word – Omega Krypton Dec 2 '19 at 2:17
• It’s an archaic form of pelican. en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/pelecan – Thomas Markov Dec 2 '19 at 2:18

These phrases have this property:

Take the word values using A=1 - Z = 26 gives:
Sexy Phrase™: Loaded → 12 + 15 + 1 + 4 + 5 + 4 = 41 and Ohio → 15 + 8 + 9 + 15 + 0 = 47
Not: Amazed → 1 + 13 + 1 + 26 + 5 + 4 = 50 and Oatcake → 15 + 1 + 20 + 3 + 1 + 11 + 5 = 56

Similarly, for the remaining pairs, as these six lines comparisons show:
Cuban Smack → 41 and 47, Swag Pelecan → 50 and 56
Alchemical Bonanza → 67 and 73, Pagan Mailbag → 39 and 45
Killer Gladius → 67 and 73, Cider Fox → 39 and 45
Acid Cable → 17 and 23, Precambrian Beaverpelt → 100 and 106
Alcoholics Alcoholised → 97 and 103, Lakeshore Masochism → 94 and 100
Estonian Dairymaids → 97 and 103, Marine Teacup → 60 and 66

The sums go up by six with the first pair prime. Not sexy pairs go up by six but are not both prime.

They are called a Sexy Phrase™ because

Sexy prime pairs are prime numbers that differ by 6. The name is from the Latin word for six: sex.
