...not to want dh to wander around half-naked?

[cavell]

Particularly when, by "half naked" I am referring to the bottom half?
Dh likes to wander around wearing just a t-shirt/shirt and no pants such that his "bits" are left dangling. Sometimes he even has socks on, too.
AIBU to find this borderline revolting? It reminds me of a potty-training toddler, tbh.
Background: together 20 years, married 15, two dds aged 11 and 7. DH's body is okay, albeit a bit skinny. He knows I don't like to see him walking around in his state of undress, but he thinks I am becoming prudish and that he should be able to relax in his own home and not worry about what he is wearing... Should add also that my libido is very low at the moment and seeing his undercarriage peeking out from the bottom of a t-shirt isn't helping at all.
AIBU?

JustFabulous I predict theOP will do nothing and the situation will carry on the same.
If my OH ever did this I would tell him to get bloody something on his lower half pronto. Why cant you just do that too OP?????? What he is doing is revolting.

OP do you have pleather chairs? I bet his balls would stick to those a treat

"I'm so surprised about all the naked ass on chairs comments. I'll say again does everyone on here only ever shag in bed. Do you not ever have a quicky on the sofa in case poo particles get on the cushions!"

I'm no prude, but having seen post-sex sheets with skid marks, left by men who would swear they are clean, I wouldn't want to shag on anything that was not easily washed!

The naked bottom half/clothed top half look is just not sexy, even on the most gorgeous of men; it just looks stupid and unerotic. I think he's doing it to make a point over something and I think, as it's making the majority of the household uncomfortable, he should cover up.

"...I think he does this partly for physical comfort, partly because it winds me up...
Ugh, I hate that sort of behaviour, it's so juvenile . I'd rapidly lose respect and love for anyone who took pleasure in winding me up deliberately.

He sits down to breakfast like it?

ffs if I were his daughters I'd be mortified, really who wants to see their dads bits swinging around.

What, so if OP found it a sexy look then it'd be ok?! The brainlessness of these responses is quite staggering..

Are you here simply to tell us we are doing it all wrong (again) fourth ?

it's a bit tiresome

I'm no prude, but having seen post-sex sheets with skid marks, left by men who would swear they are clean, I wouldn't want to shag on anything that was not easily washed!

What were you doing that caused men to get skiddy marks on your sheets woman?

There's lots of very rude things I could say about this, but won't.

Brainless? I think not. It merely highlights the unlikelihood that the OP's husband is doing it to try and provoke a rekindling of interest in sex, as it's not a flattering glimpse of anything. I can't see what's controversial about making that observation. You seem to be having trouble reading the thread and responding in a sensible fashion, Fourth, although I wouldn't be rude enough to label you brainless on that evidence alone.

The point is that if this behaviour is offensive and / or harmful to his family - specifically, his children - then the erotic allure (or lack thereof) of what he is revealing is irrelevant. However if it is not harmful or offensive - on which question the jury seems still to be out - then that leaves the "unsexy" argument which, as I have pointed out, is no argument at all against what this man is doing in his own home. Would you support a man claiming he found the sight of his wife's frequently-exposed and unshaven legs offensive? I doubt it..

no...because it is 'usual' for people to have their legs 'out'; in the home and in the street. It is not at all usual to have your penis out at the breakfast table with your daughters

people have talked about the sexual allure of his dress, because I think OP suspected (or someone suggested) this was a reason that he was doing this....

fourth did you see my comments upthread about how this man's behaviour and how people should be reacting to it is nothing to do with sex

the unshaven legs thing is not really comparable though...last I looked legs were not a primary sexual characteristic

Cavell, do you really consider this just a case of him winding you up?

Is there no little voice in your head asking what this is doing to the girls, or why he chooses his naked bum to be the instrument of getting on your nerves? A lot of men would burp or make armpit noises, or fart and laugh...

Do your girls ever have friends over for sleepovers? Or just friends over?

You've just dug up a zombie thread from November 2012. And we don't care about your knob.

What did alan48 say?

He does like old threads I must say....

he said something about having a really small penis and how sad he is :(

You are not being unreasonable. He is being unreasonable beyond description. I'm really shocked he is behaving like this in front of your daughters.

THis is a Zombie thread, resurrected for someone to get his kicks from.

Yeah that Alan guy resurrected a thread about wank socks or something like that the other day. Perv..

oy vey

I have been married 3 times: divorced : died and surviving :) none of them did this! I also has a son and two stepsons all in their forties and none of them would do this either.

Oh flip zombied again :)
