Whenever a man walks in on a naked woman, or she walks in on him, he will stare briefly, bluster and turn around. He will ask (and sometimes demand) that the woman please put some clothes on. He'll even go so far as to give her his shirt if she has no clothing of her own. This will even happen if the specific man is generally of "low morals", who you'd think would gleefully use the opportunity to closely inspect the au natural specimen. This is common in stories where a woman who has no cultural taboo against public nudity finds herself in our culture. It also happens when Ms. Fanservice tries to work her wiles on someone who just isn't interested.

Note that this also could be a survival reflex: walking in on a naked Megaton Punch-happy woman is very dangerous. Giving clothes (i.e., making clear that the nudity's not the goal) can dampen the danger. Usually used to ramp up the comedy, sexual tension or both. If the trope is reversed, as a man walking around naked, he is more likely to be hit by the woman. Sometimes the woman, rather than being fully nude, is merely wearing something very Stripperific. Truth in Television, to a degree; most men will agree that ogling a naked woman is hardly unpleasant, but it's bound to be immensely awkward when it's someone you know (and will have to interact with later) socially.
