17th century, from Latin crassus (“thick, crass”). While the sense “stout, spry” can easily be explained from this, some sources consider it an influence from Malay keras (“hard, strong”). Compare German krass, English crass.

     Door het gebruik van het woord sekslustig ontstaat het idee dat de misbruiker het eigenlijk niet kan helpen - hij moest zijn kwakje kwijt hè, het is een biologisch ding - hij was kras toch. Excuses voor mijn taalgebruik, oh teerhartige lezer, maar soms kookt mijn bloed van woede.

     The use of the word 'sex-craving' creates the impression that the abuser can't actually help it - he had to get rid of his load, right, it's a biological thing - he was horny after all. I do apologise for my use of language, oh tender-hearted reader, but sometimes my blood boils with rage.
