If you mean it using the literal definition of sexy then yes. That might be an issue. But I don't think they mean literally sexy (as in sexually attractive). Ha

  I obviously would'nt call anything else sexy but a women.

    Are you a native English speaker? I remember being shocked when I learned that in English "sexy" has a popular meaning outside of sexual context. While I wouldn't use a (translation of) sexy in my native language in this context it seems that it's perfectly acceptable in English. That's actually what's hard when learning foreign languages - words which are similar to the ones you know, but with different semantics. It's even harder when the language you're learning is relatively similar to yours - it was a bigger problem for me to learn Russian than English for this reason.

      No, I'm not, and WOW, I didn't knew about that, I'm somewhat shocked also! :D I hit the dictionary and found that this word is also used for something "exciting". We never-ever use it in this context, there is no such thing in Hungarian language that anything else than woman or men is "sexy". That's why I read HN, to learn every day, thank you! p.s. It still feel strange to me naming a women and also a text editor sexy, so I will never use it, but now I understand, it might not be that stupid than I thought. :)
