    To be honest I'd probably make my husband answer the door and go run and hide in the bedroom.

    I live up a freaking mountain on the top of a ridge infested with trees on a driveway covered in pot holes. If someone is daring enough to come to my house, they're probably crazy or some pervy FedEx delivery person. So, yes, I cover up.

    Yep, definitely. Heck, I've been to nudist resorts before and covered up except when in the water. (I'ma shy nudist)

    when i was in better shape i use to run around in a swim suit of some kind all day even if i wasn't going swimming simply because Kansas is hot as hell in the summer, but i also use to wear shorts at least if i was home i would probably have answered with out covering up. NOW with the shape im in no i wouldn't, i run around in my underwear and the second i hear some one outside the door i run for my room to get dressed/

    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.

    hahaha sorry I can imagine how flustered this could make some people - not that i would do it...


    To answer the original post's question - yes, I would cover-up before answer the door

    I spend most days NOT fully clothed, sometimes it can be hard to find something quick to cover up with. SO, if I was wearing a swimsuit I wouldn't see the point in covering up.

    Where did you serve?

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

    Served in Hawaii, but heard similar stories from all over, though one friend that went to the Phillipines had numerous proposals because all the Philippinos wanted an American husband.

    no. i'm a little confused why any of the girls are saying yes. it's a swimming suit that i wear in public anyway.

    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.

    See, in that case I would throw on a towel. But more because of the dripping than modesty. A bathing suit can be worn in public (where appropriate, anyway) without an eye being batted, so what's the big deal about my own house?

    I've had repair people show up just as I was getting on my elliptical when I only had shorts and a sports bra on and I answer and hang out until they're done.

    This question is similar to weather or not you would wear your pajamas to the grocery store. Being more mostly naked in socially excepted places such as the beach and pool I'm personally completely fine with, but answering the door, especially when I don't know the person. Not okay. I worry about making them feel uncomfortable.

    This being said, I am Canadian, and that's how we are. If I were in Germany (I know a LOT of nudist from Germany), or perhaps in a tropical country my attitude would differ.

    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

    I think I love you.

    I make sure my big black dog is totally revved up and barking loudly before I answer, every time.

    Well, first off, I don't wear one pieces. I actually find them less flattering to my body type than a bikini or tankini. Usually I don't bother with covering up my top half, even if I am at the beach. I'd probably throw on a skirt and not worry about it.

    Good question!
    I would cover up.

    I was in the back yard (at the pool) one day and the pizza came and I just went out front in my bathing suit to get it.
    I don't know why but I've never felt so embarrased :blushing:

    I guess it's the context you're in???

    I never have hahaha (even in a two piece). I've always been very comfortable in my home.

    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

    Hrmmm.... was he good looking?

    If we caught a glimpse of nip, we called it the "brown eye", whether opening the door scantily clad or nursing in front of us.

    No. I have been known to answer the door in just a t-shirt and panties.

    Nope, I wear my swimsuit in public at a pool so I see no difference.

    BUT I have also been known to answer the door in my underwear (hey it keeps the door to door religious people off my lawn don't judge)

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

    What? Give them the show of their lives!

    Well, its usually an older guy that comes. (Very nice but not my type :wink: )

    But... if he looked like you, I'd consider it.

    Cover up, definitely. If it's a girlfriend or my mom or something, I don't care. But anyone else? It would just be awkward!

    I'd throw on a sundress or towel.

    Yes. Bathing suits are for the pool, not for answering the door in. It's like answering the door in your underwear - or worse a towel. It takes 2 seconds to grab shorts and a t-shirt...

    Until recently, I haven't worn a bathing suit of any sort in at least a couple of years. But now that my body is almost where I want it to be, I don't think I would have any qualms about answering the door in my bikini, provided my husband was home. If I was home alone, I would have second thoughts.
