.......let's assume that when you're at the public beach or pool, you wear a one-piece or a bikini. Should you happen to be wearing the same suit at home.....maybe you're trying it on, maybe you're outside tanning....whatever. If someone would happen to knock at the door, would you cover up before answering the door?

    Yup, but I cover up at the beach/pool too unless I'm actually swimming.

    Yes...

    Then again, I only DON'T cover it up anyway when I am actually in the water - otherwise, a towel or sundress or something goes over it.

    Yes, because with my luck, it would the religious people that come to the house every so often to give us pamphlets.

    Having been a Mormon missionary, I know for a fact that women don't always cover up to answer the door, and I suspect that some of them probably take off everything as quickly as possible just because they know it will fluster a missionary and our eyes will immediately be anywhere but looking at them and it gives them a laugh.
  • I would cover up! But then again I normally wear some sort of board shorts with my 1 piece anyways..

    Probably not...I've answered the door in a swim suit several times, because if it's summer time, during the day, and I'm at home, I'm either about to head to the pool or I've just gotten back from the pool (I live in an apartment, pool is literally right behind my building).

    Hahahahaha that's hilarious. I mean, probably not for you, it's probably actually kinda rude, but the thought that somebody would do that on purpose is funny to me.

    Where did you serve?

    I served in Argentina and the culture there is a bit more, ah, liberal than here in the States...

    Yes, with my luck it would be Jack the Fricken Ripper.

    This is actually very funny to me. I parade around in a 2 piece for a week on vacation at a resort, but at home, I probably would cover up before I answer the door. But only if I had been just trying my suit on or something. If I was in the backyard playing with the kids in the pool, then I would probably not worry too much about it.

    Bizarre how we work.

    Depends. I can usually see who's at the door before I answer, so it would depend on who it was

    same here from a former JW, guys will answer the door naked just to fluster the women.

    When I was 8 years old, I was knocking on doors with my mother and a man answered the door mid jack-off and at first he was startled to see me there but then decided to stick to his original plan and just kept stroking.

    some people are exhibitionists.
    Some people are mischeivous.
    Some people consider a bikini to be clothing and dont think its a problem (me)
    Some people believe in the courtesy of modesty during face to face interactions.

    to everyone and each their own

    Hello missionary.

    And I always would cover up

    Most definitely cover up. A bathing suit is in its right context at the beach. It would be quite the surprise to whoever was at the door, though.

    Nope,
    In fact in college, if i heard a knock on the door and was only wearing bra and panties I would answer without covering up because they cover just as much as a bathing suit ( but also knew there wouldn't be a stranger knocking on my door)

    but i see no problem in me answering the door in my bathing suit presently.

    I don't cover up when I answer the door. The thought has never even crossed my mind. I always figured I wear a bathing suit in public whenever I go to the beach so there is nothing wrong with it. Well maybe I have made people uncomfortable in the past and never even known it. Oh well :tongue:

    No,

    but i make it a point to answer my door appearing as crazy as possible

    big dog barking behind me

    me, screaming "WHAT DO YOU WANT?!!!" in the poor knocker's face

    it helps keep the kids off the lawn, the neighbors out of my flour/sugar/eggs, and the missionaries from thinking there's ANY hope of saving me
