Connotation is distinct from denotation. The word "banana," for instance, denotes an oblong fruit which preoccupation of the speaker (or listener) makes one think not of fruit but of, say, male genitalia, then the word "banana" is said to connote sex, and thus has sexual connotations. Note, however, that if you are using the word banana as a euphemism for, say, "penis," then the word is no longer denoting fruit and connoting penis, but is actually denoting penis proper, though it is still probably the inherent sexual connotation of the word banana that prompted you to use it as such a euphemism. Make sense?
