Do you find your sexual preference sexier in sexy clothes or in the nuddy? Me, clothed. By a factor of about 10. ---

Let’s see…seven nights in a week… I’ll go with birthday suit on five nights and sexy suit on two nights. ---

Um…men look kind of silly nude. I’m sure you were aware of this. It’s not necesarily in a bad way, though. That being said, I don’t necesary have to have “sexy” clothes…partially dressed is the best. I have a picture of a (male) model on my computer at home which I think is unbelievably hot. Low-slung jeans, low enough to see the bone of the hip so you know he isn’t wearing any underwear, and a long-sleeved open shirt which is unbuttoned all the way. _Smoking hot_. Of course the six-pack and the green eyes probably help, too. 😉 ---

Sexy clothes, 10 out of 10 times, I think. ---

> [@Spectre of Pithecanthropus](#): > > Thanks for that…nice to know I belong to the half of humanity that…_looks worse naked_. I don’t think so. I like the look of a naked man, buffer is better, but that’s true for women too. I’m not buff at all, I’m quite sure people would rather look at a buff guy au naturel than me! Fortunately for me, my husband is either loveblind or an incredible liar. 😉 ---

> [@Spectre of Pithecanthropus](#): > > Thanks for that…nice to know I belong to the half of humanity that…_looks worse naked_. Now, now, she didn’t say we look _worse,_ she said we look _kind of silly_. Not even really silly, just kind of silly, like… watching the occasional rerun of Gilligan’s Island is kind of silly; being a Gilligan’s Island reenactor is really silly. So, it’s her way of saying, “Hey, look, naked guys, thanks for helping us keep a sense of humor about this whole sex thing!” That’s my interpretation and I’m sticking to it. I’m also keeping my clothes on whilst around **Elenia28…** most of them, anyway… ---

Hmm… I usually don’t advance an opinion in these sorts of threads - but what the heck. I have to cast my vote for totally or mostly nekkid. ---

A buff body in boxer shorts. That is the best. Of course, they won’t stay on long after I see that… ---

I think **Elenia28** meant silly like when we do that thing where we stand outside the shower door holding up a towel _without using our hands_ wearing only an old baseball hat and black socks. “Can I get you a towel?” C’mon…Everybody does that…Right??? ::runs and hides:: ---

Birthday suit. Definitely. Sexy clothes can really heighten the anticipation factor, but watching them being removed (or removing them myself) is very nearly the best part of the whole evening. ---

Sexy clothes, and I hope she feels the same about me. Besides, my birthday suit needs ironing. 😃 ---

Sexy clothes, definately. Once in a while I’ll order something from Trashy or somewhere just to have her wear “to bed”. ---

I vote for sexy clothes and I also vote for nudity. I’m sorry, i cant decide. I like men naked (i for one don’t think they look silly). I like men in sexy clothes I like men in not so sexy clothes I like men covered in chocolate I like men \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ (finish that with just about anything sexy-esque) 😉 ---

I like sexy clothes before of when going to bed, but I really like nekkid when waking up in the middle of the night or in the morning. No, I’m _not_ lazy. 😉 Peace, mangeorge ---

Sexy clothes are nice some of the time, but when we’re in bed nothing’s sexier than nothing at all. ---

But I certainly don’t mind looking at gay guys. How many times have I thought someone’s cute or good-looking only to find out he’s gay? you just shrug and go on admiring anyway. And **Ethilrist** , I like boxers on men very much. Got any? [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/poll-sexy-suit-or-birthday-suit/263664.md?page=2)
