No, I think they can be sexy, depending on who's wearing them....but they don't get me going, like lingerie would, or even a ridiculously short pair of cut offs, or a skimpy, see thru bikini would. Most girls wear a very long shirt over them, to cover up the camel toe, and ass crack they inevitably get wedged into....so I do very frequently wonder how it looks, but that's about it.
