So, yesterday Jakeline and I had friends of ours over – another couple. We’re all pretty sick and wrong people, which is why we get along so well. So during a normal conversation, our female friend makes a snide comment about her husband leaving his socks on during sex. And I pipe up because early on in our marriage, Jakeline used to get on me about leaving my socks on, too. This became a recurring joke throughout the remainder of the day.
So then we got to talking and wondering just how common this is for guys, and just how bothersome it is for women. And so, once again, I come to my trusty Doper friends to find out what’s what out in the real world. Here we go:
Male or female?
Do you ever leave your socks on during sex?
2a. If so, does this bother your partner?
Does your partner ever wear socks during sex?
3a. If so, does this bother you?
For questions 2a and 3a, please explain why or why not. I feel like there are additional questions I should be asking for this, but I can’t think of them. Please feel free to add relevant commentary, though.
I always take my socks off. My latest friend w/benefits did too, once I commented on how it was a turn-off. We’d just finished having sex when I noticed he still had his socks on. “If I’d known, this all would have ended a LOT earlier,” I joked. He laughed, but made it a point to take them off after that.
I think he had to remember to consciously take them off because our routine was usually that he’d undress me gradually, but then end up tearing off his own clothes in a hurry. He’d take my socks off (or stockings, whatever I was wearing) and tickle my feet (I am really, really ticklish) but then after a while, in his hurry to, er, get to it, he’d forget about his own socks. To be honest, it was only a turn-off if I noticed, which half the time I was too distracted to do. It’s just that people with only socks on look silly. Women clad in only thigh-highs is hot, but anyone clad in only cotton socks just makes me giggle.
I used to always take my socks off, but **babygirl **never did nor would she allow them to be taken off. It used to bother me, but now, I don’t take mine off either. Doesn’t really matter either way.
It doesn’t bother either of us, because it can get cold and then putting the socks back on after sex, the socks got cold, or you have to find clean socks.
In very cold weather (such as we’re having now), both my wife and I have been known to leave our socks on. It’s not the ideal, but it bothers neither of us. Sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do… to keep warm.
Do you ever leave your socks on during sex? No,
2a. If so, does this bother your partner? It might. My feet get pretty cold to the touch
Does your partner ever wear socks during sex? Occasionally.
3a. If so, does this bother you? No. A naked woman with knee high socks kinda rings my bell.
With only socks on? A few times, but not intentionally, and none of the girls did ever complain about either. I guess, if comments were to be made while doing my duty for king and country, I’d just take them off and get back to business.
Did the sheilas ever wear only socks on? I don’t think so, because if they were, they would probably come off anyway.
Male. I’ve never worn socks during sex. In fact I can’t imagine walking around wearing nothing but socks or getting in bed like that. Lots of times we shower together before bed anyway. Do you guys then put your socks back on?
However women wearing bedsocks is cute and sexy. After all they haven’t been in a pair of shoes before hand.
Male (gay) - I’ve worn socks during sex but that was mainly for fetish purposes (yes, it exists), mainly football/soccer socks. Also in sex clubs you can’t be completely nude, so you have some socks on in your boots.
Does it bother me? Actually I get quite turned on at the idea of sex with a guy wearing socks, but then I think I have a mild foot thing as looking at a guy’s socks/shoes can get me horny.
Female (straight). Socks are a definite no-no, both on me and on him.
As Hazel said, thigh highs on a girl are one thing… but men’s sports socks definitely don’t hold the same erotic appeal, nor do most women’s socks outside of the aforementioned thigh highs. Besides, I get a little creeped out if I feel someone’s dirty-sock-covered foot on my bare skin - definitely a turn-off.
