Getting unexpectedly naked on a date?

Oh, hell no! Not me! It’s like a red flag made out of blinking red LED lights with lit sparklers spelling out: “This chick is psycho!” while a sky writer wrote “RUN! CELLPHONE, RUN!” in the sky.

Happened to me once.

We’d gone out for drinks in my neighbourhood, closed out the bar, and then walked back to my place since we didn’t feel like calling it a night just yet. I excused myself to go to the bathroom, and when I returned, found he’d jumped into my bed wearing nothing but a smile.

And yes, hot buttered monkey lovin’ swiftly followed.

Mind you, it wasn’t totally unexpected, since the date had been going quite well up to then and it was pretty obvious to both of us that penis would ensue at some point in the evening. Anyone who tried that stunt without any encouragement on my part would probably be thrown out the door in whatever state of (un)dress I happened to find him in, though.

Did one of them later become a 2-term president of the United States? It sure sounds like something he would have done. And his friend being smarter fits too.

I don’t take my clothes off until asked, or until the other person (or people) has started to. It’s just good manners.

Yeah, same with me. But I’d totally do her first anyway.

And end up paying child support for the next 18 years because such a woman is also likely to do crazy things like get intentionally pregnant to make you love her.

I’m all for female sexual liberation (indeed I don’t think there’s enough generally) but unforunately conventional opinion on this matter means that the women who buck it tend to be in the crazy category.

If a guy ever tried that on me on a date, I’d be outta there in a second. Ick.

Although, now that we’re a couple years into the relationship, I’ll sometimes come out of the bathroom after brushing my teeth and find a naked man with a big goofy grin waiting for me on the bed. That usually works, but first I sigh and roll my eyes at him. Just so he knows he’s being silly.

While I can certainly understand this position, and I think I’d agree with you under most circumstances, it might serve as a tiebreaker, or push me over the edge if I were wavering. If a date were going well but not well enough that I thought I should make a move, it might be a good way of making sure I got the hint. Likewise, if I were having fun but had to get up early in the morning or the timing was bad for some other reason, I might give in under those circumstances.

Female

Did happen to be way back in about 1982.

He got dressed when I picked up the phone and started to call the police. It was a neighbor who came over to ‘borrow’ a broiler pan …

If it had been someone I even had been on a date with I probably would have laughed, but a more or less total stranger … I don’t think so.

On a first date, no way. Anyone that, um, “eager” might have been equally eager with every Tom, Dick, and Harry, and Dopey, and Sneezy, and Itchy, and Crabsy, and Open Soresy.

But I’d be more cautious for what Illuminatiprimus said. Someone moving too fast too soon strikes me as suspicious for assorted reasons. I’d be thinking Single White Female or bunny boiler, or someone who would get all icepick stabby in the morning.

Now if someone did that after a series of successful, fun dates, that’s a different story. I’d probably make the Homer Simpson “Hee-hee!” of glee as I trotted into the bedroom.

I’m just curious… would you be just as cautious with someone who tried to get you into bed on the first date using a more subtle tactic, or is it just the get-naked-when-you-leave-the-room tactic that makes you question their errr… cleanliness?

(says the girl who has been known to get naked on the first date on occasion, though her date was always in the room when it happened)

As much as I’d like to think I’m Mr. Scottie McHottie, devilishly handsome, with a body that Brad Pitt would envy, George Clooney’s bank account, and the ability to charm any girl out of her pants, the cold hard reality is that I’m just an ordinary guy. I’m decent looking, I think. I’m fit, I can make a girl laugh, and I’ve been told I’m a fun date because I like to do fun things, but bottom line: I’m just your average Joe. Sure I’ve had a few good shags on a first date, but girls (ETA: sane girls) generally don’t throw themselves at guys like me in such a blatant fashion. Really into me? Sometimes. Naked surprise? No.

Anyone who was so aggressively eager to jump my bones on the first date, I’d suspect of ulterior motives. Like maybe she’s trying to make someone jealous who’s going to try to whup my ass later, or she’s already pregnant and looking for someone to trick into taking responsibility for someone else’s kid, or maybe she’s going to be tomorrow’s stalker. Either way, it just wouldn’t sit right with me. Really worthwhile women don’t tear their clothes off for regular guys like me.

You brits and your stuffy manners. I bet you extend your pinky finger when sipping tea as well. :smiley:

I’d like to also point out that I’m as much a slut as the person **Swallow **is describing (slept with plenty of people on the first date - or indeed have met up with people solely for the purpose of casual sex never to see them again), but as a gay man that’s very much par for the course and therefore I can do it without any real problems. Yes it’s a double standard and I think it sucks but I don’t determine what society thinks.

Maybe this is another thread but I’ve had several incidents where female friends of mine came on to me when they were pretty drunk. I thought I was being a nice guy by not taking advantage of them. Now years later I realize they likely wouldn’t have felt bad later at all. The alcohol was just a convenient excuse and they probably acted more intoxicated than they actually were. In other words, instead of a nice guy, I was really a naive dumb ass. :smack:

Uh, Swallows? Have you interacted with a large number of women? If so, I am reasonably sure you have interacted with a woman who claims to be regular, ordinary, etc., and for whom a strict majority of guys would cheerfully tear their clothes off. Perhaps we have had different life experiences, but I (who also considers myself mostly average) would think “Hey, this woman wants me and isn’t shy about letting me know! Awesome!” before I’d think “Augh! Crazy! Run away!”

That being said, undressing your partner is part of the fun, and I’d personally not make use of this maneuver save for very rare circumstances. Plus, as mentioned, if sexings haven’t been put on the agenda and confirmed, it can lead to problems and embarrasment. All in all, I think that a “Say, would you like to head over to the bedroom/the couch/the kitchen table/the front lawn?” would work better, and be cleaner in the case of a negative response.

Even if I didn’t think she was off-kilter, she would be far too forward for me. And there are a lot of smokin’ hot women I’d cheerfully tear my clothes off for, but not without an invitation.

If I stripped down with no warning while a girl was out of the room, as per the OP, while I might be hopeful she’d follow suit, I wouldn’t be surprised if she called the cops.

Reminds me of this:

You must live on a different planet than I do.

Heck, I used to do it all the time in college. It was a bit different than the scenario being described in this thread. I’d invite the gal upstairs (I lived in an A frame, so all that was upstairs was the bedroom). If she said yes, it was pretty obvious what was going to happen (usually). I got pretty good at running up the stairs and getting completely naked by the time I was at the top. About 3/4 of the time, she would be right behind me. About 1/4 of the time, she would be standing at the bottom. The remark I usually got in the latter situation was, "What the fuck are you doing? It still worked about 50% of the time in the “bottom of the stairs” situations.

Interesting. What planet do you live on? Because I believe the text you quoted describes reality quite well.
