lingerie, appropriate gift or not

[Hercules10]

go for it. make sure it is crotchless and tasteless and sleezy and easy to take off.

You forgot edible.

For a bridal shower gift, I think it's ok.

All other circumstances, if someone gave me lingerie, I'd take it as a hint that they want to see me in it!

Agreed!

 

[smangan10`]

Why not ask her?

 

[kirbsam]

dude: dont ask her. you are the man. you take control and show her who is boss, and what you want. she will be putty in your hands.

 

[Not My Fault!]

Well you'll certainly know where you stand as regards the relationship.

And it's always good for a man to know where he stands...

 

[scot@dvcstore]

Why not.

This is a very funny question to me right now. We just had our office party where we do a white elephant exchange and my friend opened up a red silk lingerie top it was hilarious and so NOT appropriate for work, we all went around describing our funny gifts and she just held hers up, no commentary necessary.

 

[klacey1]

hahahahah, then I would say it is ok to give as gift.

I also would include something else, such as a really nice handbag or perfume, because after all the lingerie is really a gift for you.

This! I'd love getting such a gift from DBF, and a designer purse or fancy perfume to go with it would make a new GF melt.

Someone once told my then-boyfriend that lingerie is a rip-off gift when it comes from a man to a woman because it's just like a man giving a woman parts of his car for a gift. The man is pretending the gift is for her, but it's actually for him.

I totally agree with this!

With the screen name of "Redlight" I would think he has enough hints.

OMG. I never thought of that connotation of my sn.

 

[monkeyboy]

"Not sure yet" = NO! Lingerie is a gift for a very comfortable and trusting relationship; one that is monogamous and long term.

Certainly not for Christmas or my birthday. I feel the same way about appliances too!

That's a whole other thread for another day

I wouldn't do it monkeyboy. If I am reading your relationship with this woman correctly, it sounds like it would be a bit too suggestive.

an that is a problem how?

Yes, go for it - the trashier, the better.

But we're talking MONKEYBOY here? Somehow I don't think this relationship has the degree of subtlety that leads to a woman searching for deep messages in a Christmas gift.

HEY NOW

go for it. make sure it is crotchless and tasteless and sleezy and easy to take off.

Now that will get you points

 

[TiggerTails57]

If you do Monkeyboy..........Just be prepared to get gifted some saucy briefs from DGF next year for Christmas or sooner.

Update:

Went ahead and got something Christmas-y from the place in the mall.

Then I did get some other stuff of course, but I think it's fine.

 

[Kimberly]

Keep us updated on the gifting session.

 

[LuvOrlando]

OMG. I never thought of that connotation of my sn.

Can I ask what other sort of redlight you did mean by your name? I made the same leap, sorry

Speaking of names, Monkeyboy, does yours have anything to do with the 2 1/2 Men show? I just caught the pilot and in it the stalker keeps calling Charlie "Monkey man"... just wonderin'

red light = stop.

 

[DisneyBamaFan]

red light = stop.

Sure it not "Red Light District"?

 

[redlight]

Sure it not "Red Light District"?

Positive.

 

[DisneyBamaFan]

Positive.

So, that's an affirmation?
