I'm pretty comfortable with nudity, including getting dressed and undressed in front of a significant other. But as we all know, there are some articles of clothing, especially undergarments, that don't highlight your features in the best light. For example, tights are one thing that I would avoid putting on in front of my special someone at all costs! I might be alone on this one so tell me, are there any articles of clothing that you put on or take off behind closed doors in an effort to maintain the mystique in your relationship?

There's nothing I'm embarrassed about, so no. It's interesting you mention tights. I think tights and pantyhose, and stockings especially, are really very sexy. Putting them on in front of my bf totally gets him going!
1Nope. I'm completely comfortable in front of my b/f!
2I'd say I'm comfortable getting dressed and undressed in front of my husband after all he's seen me give birth I think he could handle tights!
3Man we always look forward to me putting on tights - either for going out, to stay warm, ballet whatever because it's endless giggles as I try to wrestle into em. If you can't laugh in front of your significant other who can you laugh with.
4knee high nylons...not so nice on a naked body....thigh highs on the other hand ...
5I had a conversation similar to this with one of my close male friends who stated how awkward it is for him when he strips down and how ,obviously, the socks are the last to go. total mood killer when you're totally naked but still have your socks on.
6Sun_Sun - my thoughts exactly...knee highs or high socks are not flattering on a bare leg
7i agree with Dear too, tights and nylons aren't super sexy on their own
Ummmm I don't think anything. I just get dressed, no biggie.
8At this point there's nothing I wouldn't put on or take off in front of my husband. I think after seeing me give birth there's not much mystique left to the imagination anymore.
However he does think that seeing me wrestle with my pantyhose is pretty amusing......
9the key to not-being-naked-with-socks is to either take them off first, or just take them off with your jeans.
as far as dressing in front of an SO, there are certain undies that I will only wear on days I know I won't be seeing him (we don't live together). And I always try to put my bottoms on first since I like the top half of my body better.
10Nope, not at all.
11You know those undergarments that are supposed to make you look a bit slimmer - like the one Bridget Jones wore before she had sex with Hugh Grant? I would never put on or take off one of those in front of a significant other.
12I think it just kind of depends on what kind of tights and what your body is like. I don't really like putting that kind of stuff on in front of my hubs but I'm not very comfortable with my body.
13Nope. I'm really content with my body with any article of clothing (even those tiny g-strings).
14Granny panties are a HUGE no!!!!!!
15None...I don't care what my hubby sees me putting on!
16nothing
17Um, this may be off the topic, but I avoid at all costs my man seeing me in my underwear if it's that time of the month, and I'm wearing one of those pads with the wings. Ugh. SO SO SO not sexy. I don't even want to see it.
18In or out of relationships, white underwear, granny panties, cotton crotch panty hose are in general a no no. Ewww!
19I'll wear whatever! My husband has seen it all at this point :]
20My SO has seen it all, but the items on rockandrepublics list are right...they just seem eh...not sexy.
Not that I'm embarrassed, I just don't parade around in them in front of him...
And Beaner you're right...those wings sticking out are a terrible image...
21I still will, but I still am with Dear on this one. Me doing the pantyhose dance is not sexy imo
But if it works for you, rock it!
22I'm just not that graceful when I'm putting on tights.
23I'm completely comfortable wearing (or not wearing) anything in front of my husband, because a) by this point he's seen it all and b) it doesn't matter to him one bit. He still thinks I'm sexy.
24lol spanx are a HUGE no no. I can't even do that in front of a mirror!
25Spanx! horrible horrible horrible it's like trying to wrestle a grizzly bear into a one piece swim suit
26My Spanx are MY BUSINESS. I will put them on in the bathroom and then dazzle him with the results, but he will NOT see me wiggling like a beached fish trying to get into the bloody things.
27Oh my god, that's hilarious. Never really heard anyone acknowledge the tights thing publicly before, but they are so awkward. Every time y boyfriend sees me getting dressed in tights, he says "nice outfit" and laughs, and I can't blame him.
28Spanx is the only thing I can think of. I can put on hose and tights pretty gracefully, but Spanx is impossible to put on with any form of grace.
29itsheathermfru, you almost made me spit my dinner on my screen!

30awesome visual!
LOL at the spanx and bridget jones pants comments!!!
I agree, no spanx/bridgie pants!
Other than that, everything is pretty much fair game!
31I 100% agree about the pad wings. I sleep with them and I'm always a little embarrassed no matter how ridiculous that is!
32I agree with graylen.
33And spanx, omg that convo made me laugh my butt off.
My boyfriend loves me in practically anything. Some guys find it sexy when women dress in front of them. He especially has a thing for me in my stockings ;P
If you're nervous just think "This is my body and I love it." over and over.
34LOL at the comments about socks... I live in a cold climate, and thick wool socks are so warm and so not sexy. I just showed the main squeeze the flight of the conchords singing "business time" and told him they are my business socks... now he looks forward to seeing them!
35Haha...I agree with the socks thing. Socks and nudity don't mix!
36I totally agree with Dear, I will never let him see me do the pantyhose/tights/spanx dance...so not attractive!
37Granny panties...
38Putting on my bra. I'm pretty busty so it's kind of a process. I needs to lift, separate, and make sure I'm all in. It's pretty embarrassing. I always turn my back and do it really quick. And NOBODY needs to see what a female looks like in Spanx, they look great UNDER clothes and THATS IT!
39Also, when I'm wearing skinny jeans tucked into my boots I put my socks over the jeans. When I take my boots off I have a pair of mismatched socks with my jeans tucked into them. Its pretty dorky looking. I try to make a joke out of it... I think it's kind of charming.
I've been with my husband for years and he's seen me in everything so it's not really an issue. I sometimes hate getting undressed in front of him because he won't leave me alone, but that's a different argument all together.
40haha, yes I do feel pretty silly putting on tights in front of my husband. And sports bras - I like they way they look once they're ON, but getting them on is kinda like putting on tights...there's a lot of squirming & pulling involved.
41Nothing is off limits. I feel sexy putting and taking off all the intimates including the tights. Being a gymnast helps with the balance.
42I've been with my husband for 6 years. It's not a secret anymore. I don't mind anything. That being said, I wouldn't purposely have him see me getting into any girdle style contraption, not sexy, but if he sees it's not like I'd be mortified.
43Just the everyday panties or what I call my "period panties" for when I've got my monthlies. I will never let my partner see them, as I don't feel sexy in every day briefs. I feel sexy in boyleg briefs but my partner doesn't want to see those!
I also hate him seeing me with footless tights with no shoes. But I get over it.
44I just put my dress on first, so the tights or nylons won't look as silly going on.
But I can't think of anything that would actually get me embarrassed in front of him, I'm pretty comfortable with my body.
45Anything that I want to have him take off later.
He can't see me put it on, spoils
the surprise!!
46something that will take too long to pull on.
47Oh man..these are funny lol. Especially the ladies whose hubbies saw them give birth. I agree, white undies, and "period draws" are a NO NO.
48Autumns, wear your boyshorts, honey!
49Im slim and toned.. so anything is ok.. like leggings etc
You should be mentioning whats not ok to take off.. SKINNY SKINNY JEANS whilst trying to be seductive.
I always fall over and i think laughter is not what i would call sexy!
