You won't make many friends around here by using 'text speak' on this forum. Many people find it really annoying!
Just as you need to 'know your audience' when posting on here, it's essential to do so when sending people texts or emails. I know plenty of people who would simply laugh if they received a text suggesting that they should appear in their birthday suits. I also know many employers who would instantly dismiss an employee who sent such a text or email to a colleague, on the grounds of sexual harassment.
There are times when it's worth arguing about something, but this isn't one of them. You've offended someone who'll you'll be seeing frequently. It would make far more sense to apologise for causing the offence (even though you might think that no offence should actually have been taken in the first place) in order that you can get on well together in the future.

She does sound a bit uptight. Possibly she has body dysmorphic disorder or something. Anyway I'd try asking again just to make sure it was a no. Maybe she misread your text? If she's embarresed she could make a 'whipped cream bikini' to cover her modesty. As for the other girl - could you ask for a solo rendition? Hopefully she's not so prudish.
