noun (English)

1. (slang) A place offering entertainment of a sensual or luxurious nature.Examples: "1884, Henry James, "A New England Winter" in The Century Magazine 28 (4–5) (August–September 1884). "This was absurd for a person who... had never before had such unrestricted access to the fleshpots. The fleshpots were full, under Donald Mesh's roof, and his wife could easily believe that the poor girl would not be in a hurry to return to her boarding-house in Brooklyn.""; "The frizzle-headed man-eaters were loath to leave their fleshpots so long as the harvest of human carcases was plentiful. Sometimes, when the harvest was too plentiful, they imposed on the missionaries by letting the word slip out that on such a day there would be a killing and a barbecue."; "Are you so pressed for funds to pay off that loan that you have sunk into the mire of selling macho sex a la the Advocate's fleshpot section which they call (in what the editors there probably think is a euphemism) "Trader Dick?""slang

2. (US slang, derogatory) A very attractive woman considered a sex object.Examples: ""Mere slip. Serpent of old Nile. Doesn't matter in the least," says Mr. Browne airily; "because she couldn't hear me as it happens. My dear girl, follow out the argument. Cleopatra, metaphorically speaking, was a fleshpot, because the world hankered after her. And—you're another.""; "Sue Ellen, Pam, Jenna--the mistresses and wives--come and go; in a male-dominated society every woman is a fleshpot unless she has the virtues of Miss Ellie and assumes the role of benevolent matriarch."; "So piquant was her delivery that merely by conjuring up one of her lines of dialogue, one is in the company of one of her unyielding characters—a fleshpot or a spinster, a waitress or a queen, a housewife or... as George Sanders’s character said of her alter ego in All About Eve, “Margo is a great star. She never was or will ever be anything less or anything else.”"USderogatoryslang

3. (literally) A pot or vessel of flesh.Examples: "We would be againe in Egypt, and ſit by the greaſy fleſhpots, to eate againe our Garlike, Onions, and Leeks."; "Some theorists, again, would have us live solely on animal food, and assert, that the human viscera bear vegetables " only in a grumbling way ;" while others would reduce us to the diet of Nebuchadnezzar, and not leave a fleshpot in our kitchens."; "A copy of the sacred book, from the hand of Othman, was kept there in a golden box lined with silk, garnished with pearls and rubies, and placed upon a stand of aloe wood, with golden nails. The ancient sanctuary is commonly called el zancarron, in derision—literally, an old bone, a fleshpot bone."literally
