crow Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Ok. Please help me understand something. When a woman is caught naked (getting out of the shower, getting dressed, etc.) she will immediately cover her breasts, many times leaving her bottom area exposed. I have been in this situation a few times in my life, both with women whom I was dating and a couple of occasions when I accidentally walked in on a friend. I would think that a woman would rather cover her pubic area first, but that does not seem to be the case. This is just something I have wondered for a long time and I thought this might be a place to hear some answers. Can anyone help me out here? In the same area of interest...would women be more willing or comfortable to expose their breasts or their pubic area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yvette84 Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 uuhh......Well....I would cover both if that happened to me but I guess it depends on your comfort level of your body. If you love your chest you'll probably cover your lower regions first. I think covering the top is just an instinct, it doesn't really make sense.

pregnantkitty_1985 Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Personally, I'd be covering up the pubic area, because my breasts are the shizzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southerngirl Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 I would do the bend over and cover, bending over, and crossing legs to hide the bush and arms crossed in a way to cover breasts/ low as i could... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntiLove_SuperStar Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 I don't really urm cover anything. Most peculiar, actually, given my body issues. But I don't bother to cover at all if someone "catches" me naked. Example - this morning, I was walking round my boyfriend's house naked, and then I realised that his curtain hadn't been drawn in his hallway, and a couple of people could see me from the street (its a bungalow/ground floor setup). I moved, but only in my own good time. And I didn't cover up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agent1607307371 Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 I wouldn't. I have no problem with my body and if someone I'd dating caught me naked, I'd have no problem with it. And if it was someone who wasn't meant to, I'd brazen it out "Can I HELP you?! grr." That said, I think it probably has a lot to do with the way society fetishises breasts as something to keep covered and private way more than anything else.

pregnantkitty_1985 Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 I find it just a tinnnnnnnny bit ridiculous that my above post was deleted, because it was referring to southerngirl's post above. I was amused and was showing so. I guess I should have added "Yeah, that's what I'd most likely do as well.." to make it more relevant to the thread.

thyroxine Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 I remember talking about this in one of my psych classes. Where you cover up correlates with your culture. In some places, women will cover their neck first. I always tend to cover my stomach for no good reason really. I don't know where I got that from...especailly since it's so impractical. >_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayKay Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Well, if my partner catches me, I sure don't cover anything! He always gives me a "roooowwwwrrrr" anyway No one else has ever caught me other than a partner, so I don't know what I would do. Probably just duck behind a door; maybe not. I don't go around flaunting my nakedness, but I really am not one whom is embarrassed easily or anything or very self conscious! Reminds me of a riddle someone once asked (this was for women..) If you were sleepwalking and woke up to find yourself in the middle of a busy street of all these people you knew from work, friends, etc and all you had was one tiny towel (ie facecloth) what would you cover? Answer: your face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DN Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 If I were caught naked by someone I did not know - I would cover my face. Most people recognise me by my face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadows Light Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Can't say that I've ever been caught by a non-partner. But I don't think I'd cover anything. lol. I'm very comfortable in my own skin. It is what it is... stretch marks from pregnancies and all. When my kids were babies and they nursed... I nursed "on demand" if I was in public I'd be discreet and cover with a blanket... not because I was embarrassed but out of courtesy for the public. Many of who may be offended by the mere sight of a partiall exposed breast. However... I will say, when I see a woman nursing her child out in public, cover or no, I think its the most beautiful sight in the world. So natural... so very very beautiful.

doyathink Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I would probably be so busy trying to cover everything (face, butt, ta-ta's, front) that nothing would get any real attention. So, maybe just standing there not moving would be best.....just put on a glare. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Survictor Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I would turn my back and let them see my butt. It's a good butt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Carrot Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 When a woman is caught naked (getting out of the shower, getting dressed, etc.) she will immediately cover her breasts, many times leaving her bottom area exposed. Maybe because breasts are kind of sticking out -while the bottom area is not much more then V shaped flesh-, it feels like a more vulnerable area. I´d cover the breasts (not that there´s much to cover anyways) cuz I don´t like their look. I´m not so self conscious with the look of my bottom area, that´s why I´d leave it uncovered.

Aurian Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I think it is because breasts in Western culture are so sexualized, it is a cliche for women to cover those up first. After all, down below there isn't as "much" to see - just hair or a V Also, I think women are used to more eyes at the chest area than below too Me? If I was seen by someone I don't want seeing me? One arm accross the breasts and one hand down below and covering not very much at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarnelianButterfly Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I'd be going for the towel and finding a hair brush to throw at the intruder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
