Your experiment is using established couples, though, so your results will be different.

If I remember HIMYM correctly, the Naked Man was used on a 1st or 2nd date. In real life I really don't think a woman will sleep with a guy she's not really into just because he's there and he's naked.

Me thinks the naked woman would easily be as ineffective. And remember Marshall used the naked man. Or didn't he? Dang it. Now I'm going to have to get on iTunes and DL it.

In all 6 seperate rooms is a one way mirror, and a nice bed. 3 husbands and 3 wives are left behind, while their others are told they are going into a room to take a 10 minute personality test, designed to see how compatible they are with their partner.

When they return to the room, their partner will be stark naked laying on the bed. The partner can say nothing more, other than that he/she is naked.

So the theory is the wives will experience 100% success, while the husbands experience 66%?
Hmmm.....interesting experiment. I'd have to say you're probably right about the outcome. Or maybe 50% for the guys. I think my reaction would be, "What the heck are you doing without your clothes on????"

Seriously! If this is true there shouldnt be a guy out there thats not getting laid.
I cant imagine that I couldnt think of something to say if my date was sitting there naked.

I think I'd have the equal reaction, heck it's me, I'd have an over reaction. I'd wonder why in the heck she's naked. Then I'd think we stumbled into some creepster's porno set. Then I'd go one worse and just assume we stumbled into the set from Hostel. I'd go all Arnie Blackkettle and start screaming, "Get to the chopper, get out of here, it's not safe." I would never be asked back to do another experiment.

LOL.... never tried that myself, but it's an interesting theory. I'd think that in order for it to work, though, a guy would have to be pretty blessed below the waist, otherwise he'll end up looking like George Costanza (from Seinfeld) that time the woman accidentally saw him with his swim trunks down after just coming out of the cold pool! ("There was shrinkage... significant shrinkage")

Definitely 3 out of 3. She would not have been invited over for coffee or "something" if the guy didnt want to get busy with her.

Now is there any truth to CBS's premise?



I thought of this because of the Pantsless Stairs Man story.
And the 3rd time she calls the police and has him arrested and drops a protection order on him.

At some point, but I would have to pass.

Sorry, but if that happened to me, I'd probably start laughing uproariously and the man would be, um, "deflated."
