Yes. Poli in my country Andar en cuero y andar en pelotas both sentences has the same meaning.
Then if you wanna say. Quiero andar en pelotas (como decir quiero jugar la pelota). It words are not well seen in my country. It could be a rudeness.

"andar en pelotas" to walk with your balls (showing)
Other way "andar en pelota picada" Be careful with the cold

From what I've read, the phrase can be applied to both sexes. A couple of folks have explained that it works for both because pelotas was derived from pelos. I don't know if that is true. I've never heard the expression used, so I can't be sure.
By the way, en pelotas also means flat broke. |
