Others may differ, of course. A lady friend of mine was in a coffee shop in the Village circa 1962 when some guy started hitting on her. She agreed to go home with him, and once there, he said "Well, take off your clothes and let's get started." Amused, she asked him "Don't you want to know my name first?" He replied "Why would I want to know your name before I find out of we're any good in bed together?"

His name was Shel Silverstein.
