How often do you look at someone and wonder what they look like naked?

I happen to be obsessed with this concept. I think the thought crosses my mind at least 10-20 times a day, depending on my exposure to people. I have been made to feel weird about this little obsession, as other people may not be as concerned with this curiosity as I am. I'm interested in knowing how often everyone else thinks about this. And what makes you think about it?

Is it a really hot chick? Is it baggy or skin tight clothing? Is it something alluring that you can't quite describe? Is it sex or is it intellectual curiosity?

For me, its all of the above. I'm obsessed with nudity.

These days yes I often think that way. In my case it is all about desire, perverse and curiosity.

Zeraph

Yeah, all the time. Most of the time it's from intellectual curiosity unless I'm horny and see a babe. I often think how silly it is how prude we all are, even though I'm still disgusted by the thought of a lot of people nude.

Anormalguy

I'm not obsessed, but I certainly do look at some women & wonder what they'd look like nude. The strange (not a particularily good word choice) part to me is I have these thoughts about women covering quite an age range & body type. It's not just the "young & hot babes" who catch my eye & imagination.

All the time. It's not something that I can count, but it's very frequent.

Usually, but it doesn't have to be. It is, however, almost always...female. Well...at least 98.5% of the time. If you are at least a reasonably attractive female, that happens to cross my path during the day, the odds are extremely good that I'm immagining you naked.

Doesn't matter.

Both. Well...intelectual curiosity...or just plain curiosity?

One for the hot chicks, especially with more revealing or form fitting clothes. Sometimes it's curiosity about how perky they really are versus a really good bra doing it's job, other times attraction to the curves and imagining them unhindered.

I'm a bit of a prude, but definitely attracted to the female form. I never did the whole "imagining people naked" thing when talking in front of groups - wrinkly old men are not a pleasant image. She's not bi or anything, but my wife agrees that the female body is much more attractive than the male.

Amaras

Halx, I do imagine people naked at least as much as you do. Not always females "young and hot" either.
I suppose something about them has to interest me. Perhaps their style, the way they carry themselves.
It's not entirely sexual, but not completely above the neck, either. I suppose that it's quite natural.
I don't consider myself obsessive as it doesn't interfere with how I go about my day.

lostgirl

I do this too, not all the time, but sometimes I find myself doing it. I look at some people, male or female, and can just imagine the rest of their clothed body. Usually they are wearing somewhat revealing clothes, or at least form fitting. Often its a guy with a body type similar to my SO, so I almost know what he's going to look like naked.

Daval

I do it with just about every female I meet Regardless of if they are good looking or not or what they are wearing at the time....

If I find a guy physically attractive, I might try to visualize him naked. What he's wearing doesn't matter. Curiosity, maybe.

If I see a hint of a bulge, or can see nice definition through a well-fitted shirt, it's totally deviant and sexual. The visualization turns to fantasy.

If I'm talking to a guy I hadn't found attractive, but his intelligence and wit has me finding him attractive and sexy, I will definitely try to get the picture.

Almost never. When I see a hot looking woman, I usually think "I'd like to see her naked," but I don't wonder about what she looks like naked. I guess I just assume that if she's hot with clothes on, she'll be hot with her clothes off. Which is weird, because I've run across several exceptions to that rule.

ASU2003

Every girl +/- 15 years from my age is naked in my world. It isn't too hard to guess at what they look like without clothes on when you've seen quite a few naked girls. Society would be an interesting place if there were no clothes.

The weird thing is when I go to a strip club or the time I went to a nude beach, it isn't that big of a deal. There might be a naked girl dancing 20 feet away, but if I'm talking to someone else, I might not even bother looking at her.

genuinegirly

I can probably count the number of times I have imagined anyone naked on one hand. I very rarely have this urge. When I do, it usually involves a male with an overwhelmingly toned and muscular body under exceptionally tight clothing. These men are usually professional dancers or athletes.

Can't say I ever do this. The thought just never occurs to me.

cadre

I figured most women would say 'no' to this while most men said 'of course!' It seems I'm not far off. I think the imagining people naked thing is definitely more common for guys but yes I do it to.

I don't walk around imagining everyone naked (I don't think I'd want to!) but if someone catches my eye or I'm watching someone for a decent amount of time I usually will start to wonder. Like today while I was using one of the ellipticals across from the racket ball courts at the gym.

Wait, I'm sorry, there are people who don't picture everyone they see, meet, know, or otherwise encounter naked?

Shit, I'm picturing some of y'all naked right now...!

BadForm

I use to do this pretty frequently. Sometimes the picturing would lead to brief day-dream style fantasies. But now that I am thinking about this as a result of your question, I'm realizing that I do this very rarely now. A bit odd - I wonder if this is as a result of getting "older".

Hooner

I remember doing this once last year in my Chemistry college course - I was sitting down in the lecture hall, talking to some friends. I thought to myself, I wonder what everyone looks like naked, and sure enough, for the next five minutes I shut up and visualized it. I kept wondering, don't they know how hot they probably look? I'm talking about girls and guys here. When one of my friends asked me what I was doing, I said "I don't care how you manage this, I want you to go and straddle Rachael"

little_tippler

It has crossed my mind but I don't do it all the time. When I do it, I'm not consciously going through the steps exactly. Sometimes my mind will do it when I don't want it to. Then I cringe. Heh.

lotsofmagnets

hmm i may do it on the odd occasion but right now nothing pops into my mind. i´ve been hanging around some very fine looking people of late and can´t say i´ve had the urge to ask. i think if i want to see someone naked i´ll just ask

I try my best!

Do straight men visualize other men naked just out of curiosity or is it just women?

I'm straight, and I will picture other guys from time to time. I think it's just the inherent bisexuality
in all of us.

I do it all the time. I think mandy does too, probably not as often.

For me, it's almost always women, regardless of the hotness. And it's always tits and ass first. Always.

It's cool to know I'm not the only one with the nakedness obsession. I just find myself wondering what they look like naked. Do her breasts sag? How much? Does her ass really look that good or is it them jeans? I need to invest in some X-Ray glasses.

Then again, wondering's half the fun.
