to ask if you have accidentally flashed someone?

I think I have, and it makes me cringe. The postman delivered this big heavy box containing the kitchen stool I ordered, and when I bent down to pick it up, I forgot I was not wearing bras. I didn't realize until I was inside my house.

Now I am absolutely mortified!!!

I also have flashed the police. I was camping and heard my daughter fumbling with her zip moaning she wanted to wee. I nipped out of my pod to unzip hers and looked out of our lovely big windows on our outside awning to see two police officers. (There had apparently been a robbery from the site shop in the night, we were quite close).

Went skinny dipping in the lake several years ago and as I was climbing out of the water onto the jetty I noticed a group of teenage boys fishing just twenty metres along the shore. Oh well, I'm sure they didn't mind!

Divaroses26 · 05/06/2017 12:37

Yes, through no fault of my own!!!

My parents, brother and I were at a water park abroad, I must of been about 14, we decided to ride a slide which had four seperate lanes next to one another with the intention you race down, lifeguard blew the whistle and off we went, all was well until my darling mother shot across my lane & everyone else's at such force she then managed to rip my bikini bottoms off as she passed 🙈🙈🙈

When we reached the pool at the bottom the lifeguard was blowing his whistle for me to exit the pool - try explaining to someone who speaks little English you've lost your bikini bottoms!!! Queue my dearest mother sending my poor father back into the pool to try and find my bottoms for me!!! I mean seriously - absolutely mortified!!!!!

Postman by accident when breastfeeding and too exhausted to remember to put my boobs back in after.

I mooned on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh many years ago. That wasn't an accident!

I always get up with my DH on a morning and get ready... the one time I slept in with my 3 month old I left him on the bed looking at his projector and had a shower, heard a bang ... runs out of the shower starkers to see what had happened ... look round ... baby on the bed giggling at his projector and the window cleaner pretending not to look at me 😞
Went down stairs and apologised and made him a coffee 😂

RiversrunWoodville · 05/06/2017 12:53

I fell down the stairs in a restaurant in Spain (stone cold sober which was even worse) and when I got up with an extremely sore back (not to mention my arse and my pride) realised my skirt and top were hoiked up to near my armpits

mimiasovitch · 05/06/2017 12:59

Many years ago, back when we needed a stair gate, I clambered over it rather than open it whilst wearing a dressing gown. A friend of my dh walked out of the living room at just the right time to get a right eyeful of fanjo. Oh I wish it had just been boobs.

BlurryFace · 05/06/2017 13:06

I didn't see if anyone saw, but my garden is very overlooked in a busy area. I was doing some weeding in the garden (fully clothed but no bra) when I found a wasps nest the hard way. They were in my top so I threw it on the ground and jumped on it before running in the house. Then I realised my toddler was still out there (other end of the garden thankfully) and went to get him wrapped in a blanket off the couch.

Got out of the bath to answer the door, slipped on the floor and dropped the towel to steady myself, flashing the young postman delivering a parcel. I said, I am so sorry/embarrassed etc he shrugged said Nah, don't worry happens all the time, you're not even th e first today' It was 10 in the morning. HOW MANY NAKED WOMEN had his round offered up?

rocketman3 · 05/06/2017 14:10

i was once having a shower at my mum and dad's and the poor, quite elderly, window cleaner appeared. he died not long after actually,

lilyborderterrier · 05/06/2017 14:22

All the time when I was breastfeeding my baby girl, it was so uncomfortable to wear clothes at first I just had a dressing gown on open.😬 the postman has to come round the back to the letterbox and he got flashed all the time !

Teutonic · 05/06/2017 16:07

On holiday one time. I was walking down a busy road from the hotel to the town while wearing a pair of shorts and a bikini top, around 2 miles in distance.
I couldn't understand why a lot of the car drivers driving towards me were staring at me, until my husband helpfully pointed out that my boobs had parted company from my bikini top.
I was mortified.

My bil when I was heavily pregnant

abbsisspartacus · 05/06/2017 16:48

I was washing my net curtains just had a shower and the cat went to hurl on the beige carpet so I whipped my towel off and shoved it under him to save the carpet stood up to realise I was stark naked in front of the whole street I hid in the kitchen

NotCitrus · 05/06/2017 17:36

Just after moving into our house, postman tried shoving a large letter through the letterbox, and the entire door opened. I was topless, possibly naked, tried to forget. Postie apologied and we got a better lock that day. Still have same postman.

Then there was the Christmas which started when BIL tripped over my naked vomit-covered body on the bathroom floor. BIL normally takes the piss a lot but has never mentioned it.

EleanorRigbysNeice · 05/06/2017 17:41

I have lovely window cleaners. All 20 somethings; have had the same ones for a few years now. They did the windows last month and I'd paid them and thought them gone. I nipped down to the utility with a pile of washing and at the last minute decided to out my dressing gown in. As I switched on the washer and turned to leave the room, one young man was just finishing off at the utility window and saw me, aged 54, naked as a jaybird. Poor, poor chap! My heart went out to him.

The post man arrived (though I hadn't heard him) just as I was rushing to get out the door, late for an appointment. My blouse was undone displaying bra and boobs and I thought I could button it up, walking down the drive (covered by trees) to my car. I opened the door and he was standing infront of me, faffing with the post box on the wall. I apologised but he took a dim view of it! My chest isn't bad; it was the window cleaner I felt sorry for.

TheWeeBabySeamus1 · 05/06/2017 17:44

Once dropped a lit cig down my top in the middle of the street and it went in my bra. Instinct kicked in and I just yanked my top and bra down to get it off ('twas burning my tit) so the whole street got a look at my tit - just one mind, I'm no hussy

Herbie22 · 05/06/2017 17:47

When I was fourteen I had the bright idea of wearing a tube top to a theme park. This was imortalised on a key ring after my nipple fell out on a log flume just as the photo was taken

Titsywoo · 05/06/2017 17:49

God yes loads of times. My elderly neighbour has seen my tits. 3 workmen who were building an extension next door have seen my foof. I'm sure there have been many more but those are from the last year

EverythingEverywhere1234 · 05/06/2017 17:54

Literally the other day, was swimming with toddler nephews and niece and one got over enthusiastic in climbing on me and pulled my cossie down. Right tit, out. Lucky it's my better one. The poor lifeguard 😂

shamoffour · 05/06/2017 17:54

Yes and I still cringe!
Dps brother was babysitting for us and staying over. We had been out for dinner and had come in and gone to bed dps brother stayed up to finish watching a film. Dd woke up after a bad dream so I got up stark naked and put her back to bed as dps brother walked up the stairs to bed.
I screamed, frightened dd to death, he clapped his hands over his eyes while I used to dd to try and protect my modesty so embarrassing.

DangerousBeanz · 05/06/2017 17:59

I ran downstairs to answer the phone naked. It was an Ofsted inspector. So I was there trying to hold a professional civilized conversion whilst starkers when the postman came and knocked on the
Kitchen window with a parcel.
I screamed and ran out of the room and started laughing my head off. I then had to explain to the Ofsted inspector what had just happened. He also laughed
The next day the postie came and was jokingly accusing me of flashing him I pointed out that i can't flash form the privacy of my own home and that technically he was a peeping Tom.
Brazen it out it's the only way.

Code42 · 05/06/2017 18:04

I accidentally mooned a rabbi. I don't like to talk about it.

Nor about the time when I was ironing my dress to go out at the last minute, wearing only stockings and heels. Friend knocked on the door so I yelled at her to come in as it was open. It was not my friend.

On the plus side, I suppose, it wasn't the rabbi either.

purpleshortcake · 05/06/2017 18:13

This thread has really put a smile on my face! When I was 18 I stayed overnight at my boyfriend' house, in the middle of the night I went to the loo then went back to "our room", hung my dressing gown behind the door and climbed into bed starkers. It was only when his Dad leaned over and said "Shelagh?!" I realised I was in the wrong bed.,I dashed off and awoke hoping it was a bad dream ..but no my dressing gown was missing!
