We were a fairly staid lot. As graduate students we mostly just worked. We shared a nice house, with 4 bedrooms. Vivian was a neat freak, I was merely a civilized female, the two guys, Peter and Mark tended to be rather sloppy. Our landlady would come by periodically, and be upset at dirt or clutter. This tended to reinforce Vivian's position with the boys. Since we hated to pick up after the slobs, we developed a penalty system if chores were undone, or mess left out: Extra dishwashing duty if the kitchen was not cleaned, and similar stuff.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that men don't even notice the mess and clutter that they leave in their wake. I grew up with brothers so I was used to it. I would complain a little if our shared bathroom was left dirty but otherwise I just got on with life. However Vivian apparently grew up in a home with just one male, her father. Her mother ran a very tight ship and made the sisters keep their rooms immaculate, clean up the kitchen every night and all that good "home making" stuff. Vivian once told me that her mother picked up after her father, almost as soon as he laid anything down. The lesson that Vivian learned from this was that she did not want to pickup after men and felt she needed to establish from the start that any man in the household needed to be neat and tidy.
So it was from Vivian's up bringing that we had a penalty system for mess left around. However, she was not obnoxious about it. I think she rather liked Peter and so did not want to appear a bitch.
We four graduate students mostly led our separate lives. Long periods of intense work punctuated by special dinners, bouts of intense drinking and occasional larger parties. Peter was rather full of himself and despite his good looks I did not feel any attraction. Mark was tall and slim - I found him very attractive. However beyond being polite he hardly seemed to know that I lived there. Life was uneventful.
Then the visitor came. Vivian's younger sister was an extremely poised freshman. She was to stay in Vivian's room until she could get on-campus housing. Sarah was blond, blue eyed, with a body to kill for. Apparently she was really sexy, because the boys just panted along behind her, imagining what was under her rather skimpy clothing.
Sarah tended to dominate the house. In the evening she lead us to go to more movies, particularly more adult ones. We had only a single bathroom, every one in the house was very proper about dressing gowns and making sure that the bathroom was empty before entering. But Sarah, set a new practice, she would walk the house in her flimsy nighty and barge right in if Vivian or I were in the shower. Once I saw her barge in on Mark, she simply smiled, and walked out again. Given that Vivian was apparently so proper, it seemd strange that Sarah grew up in the same home.
A few days after Sarah arrived, Mark forgot to take out the trash for the Monday morning pickup. We had a house meeting after dinner, and Mark was awarded the usual penalty, which was to require an extra week of garbage duty. Sarah was fascinated by the process and in her sweet, demanding way, she asked about the penalties.
"How did you decide on the penalties? Do they really work? This house is a pigsty!"
Sarah was probably right that the house was a pigsty but she was only a visitor. What right did she have to be so rude? But nobody visibly reacted and when we described the official list of penalties, she said, "Oh, these are not severe enough, and are rather boring. Mark will just forget again about the garbage."
Neither of the boys took much notice of me, or Vivian for that matter, but they fell over themselves in trying to respond to Sarah.
"What kind of penalties should we have?" Peter asked
"Something that will make the miscreant think twice before they do it again" she replied with a cliche.
"The death penalty?" I asked with some sarcasm.
"No, just say that whatever they failed to do properly the first time, they must do again, but this time naked." she responded promptly, so promptly that I was sure she had been thinking about this.
"Wow!" said Peter, "That is bold. I am sure Mark would think twice, he did forget last week too."
This sealed the fate. It was hard to argue against without being impossibly conservative, and any way, I was neat, relative to the guys, so I felt I would be immune. It would be fun to see Mark take the garbage out in the nude. However, Mark escaped doing it nude immediately since we thought it unfair to have a retroactive punishment.
It was only 3 days later that Peter forgot to do his chore of unloading the dishwasher before going to bed. The next morning, Sarah called him on it.
"Peter, the dishes are still in the dishwasher, you are such a slob. You know the new penalty."
Peter was taken aback; he was not really ready for this.
"Well, yes, I will empty it tonight, late, when no one is around."
"Sorry, that is not the way it works, for a deterrent to be effective it must be sure and swift. You must strip now and put the dishes away!"
Vivian and I nodded in agreement, I was still sure this would only be sloppy boy thing.
Peter took it with surprising grace. He stood in the kitchen and carefully stripped, laying his clothes on the table. With "oos" and :"ah's" from Vivian and I on each item of clothing sacrificed. Sarah just stared straight faced, but I am sure she was trying to suppress a smirk.
Peter looked nervous when he reached his underpants. They were boring boxers.
He looked straight into Sarah's face. I think he thought that she would say, "OK, that's enough", but she did not. The equipment underneath was apparently ashamed and did not want to show itself. We all clapped as he pulled his boxers down. Peter turned away to finish stripping and started to quickly empty the dishwasher. Sarah had kept a stern face, but I caught her smiling to her sister when Peter was not looking.
Peter was very careful about emptying the dishwasher in the future.
Only a week later, I came home to a very angry Sarah.
"You left you makeup kit all over the bathroom this morning Julia!"
"Oh, sorry, I had a big meeting this morning and I was in a hurry. I will go clean it up now."
"No, that is not good enough, what is sauce for the gander is sauce for the goose. If Peter can take his medicine, so can you!"
Peter and Mark were there, grinning. Vivian stood back, but smiled, signaling that she was not coming to my aid. I was a very proper young lady, strict upbringing. Nobody, but the occasional boy friend, had seen me naked. I was surprised by a kind of tingling in my pants. It would be truly mortifying if my panties were seen to be wet. I especially did not want Mark to see me.
"OK, but just you girls.", I pleaded. Mark came back, "No way, this is an equal opportunity household, it would be unfair if you were treated differently than us men!"
"All right, but I will just undress in my room, as I did this morning....."
"Yes", said Sarah, "that is fine but we will all watch".
With trepidation I began undressing. Two women, the bitches, and the two men were watching every move and making unkind remarks. They were fully dressed – this made it somehow much worse. Not like undressing in a locker room. Not only were they dressed but there was no functional reason, or rational excuse for me to undress at that time with my housemates watching. It could only be interpreted as me putting on a deliberate, degrading show.
"Very elegant shoes", as I slowly undid my trainers and pulled off my socks while sitting on my bed.
"The sweat shirt is first rate", as I reluctantly pulled it over my head and revealed a lacy white bra. My covered boobs shook and tingled as I exposed them to my house mates. I desperately did not want any moisture on my panties.
"Wow!", came a more genuine remark from Peter as I unhooked the bra and placed carefully on my bed. I was proud of my breasts, but usually kept them out of sight. They stood out and I wriggled them very slightly for Mark. This was the fist time I ever stripped for a mixed audience.
Now I pulled down my jeans, nothing too dramatic here, but this did not stop Vivian saying "Oh, what nice demure white panties".
I turned and quickly whipped off my panties before there was a chance to look for moist patches. I needed to keep my cool.
As I turned back to the crowd, I had almost forgotten what I was revealing. My bushy, unshaved pussy was open to their ogling eyes. Even Vivian just peered intently at me. I felt deeply ashamed, a flush came to my face – but I felt even more moist. I tried to cover my treasures, but it just made me feel silly.
Like Peter had with his ordeal, I wanted to get it over quickly. I walked into the bathroom and started to gather up my lipstick, face powder, etc.
