The sword is removed from its scabbard and laid with its sharp edges bared. Such a sword is often referred to as a "naked sword." If the sword is the man's possession, it may even be called "''his'' naked sword." Ignore the DoubleEntendre -- this is chaste!

* ''Theatre/TheDuchessOfMalfi'': DiscussedTrope. The Duchess suggests this to her lover, Antonio. It could also be considered a SubvertedTrope -- at first you might take her words at face value, but when it's revealed in the very next scene that she's pregnant, it becomes very clear that she was only joking. She refers to it by way of a ShoutOut to ''Alexander and Lodowick'' (a variation of the ''Literature/AmisAndAmiloun'' story).

* ''Literature/ElevenTwentyTwoSixtyThree'': Variant -- Sadie Dunhill's emotionally and mentally abusive (and mentally ill) ex-husband John Clayton always made her sleep with a ''broom'' between them. He sometimes let her reach over it to touch him, but even then always reacted with disgust at the idea of either of them doing anything sexual with the other, and flat-out refused to do anything that might result in children, because he was convinced that the world was doomed and there was no point to it.
