Learners sometimes think “gorgeous” is only for women. In modern English, it is common for both men and women, as well as for things and places (a gorgeous man, a gorgeous dress, a gorgeous view). Also, some learners try to use it before uncountable abstract nouns where it sounds strange (e.g., “*gorgeous advice” is incorrect; use “great advice” instead).
