getting in someone's pants

Seeking physical intimacy

Getting in someone's pants means having sex with them, or more often, trying to.

The phrase frames sexual pursuit as a goal to be achieved, typically describing someone's intentions rather than the act itself: He's just trying to get in your pants.

The tone is usually skeptical or dismissive of the pursuer's motives.
