COMMENTS
Since there are 2 congruence classes of sexy prime pairs, (-1, -1) (mod 6) and (+1, +1) (mod 6), the number of sexy prime pairs up to n is the sum of the number of sexy prime pairs for each class, expected to be asymptotically the same for both (with the expected Chebyshev bias against the quadratic residue class (+1, +1) (mod 6), which doesn't affect the asymptotic distribution among the 2 classes). - Daniel Forgues, Aug 05 2009

Eric Weisstein's World of Mathematics, Sexy Primes. [The definition in this webpage is unsatisfactory, because it defines a "sexy prime" as a pair of primes.- N. J. A. Sloane, Mar 07 2021]
FORMULA
a(n) = # { p in A023201 | p <= n } = number of elements in intersection of A023201 and [1,n]. - M. F. Hasler, Jan 02 2020
EXAMPLE
The first sexy prime pairs are: (5,11), (7,13), (11,17), (13,19), ...
therefore the sequence starts: 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, ...
