Etymology

1. "make bare," O.E. -striepan, -strypan "plunder, despoil," as in W.Saxon bestrypan "to plunder," from P.Gmc. *straupijanan (cf. M.Du. stropen "to strip off, to ramble about plundering," O.H.G. stroufen "to strip off, plunder," Ger. streifen "strip off, touch upon, to ramble, roam, rove"). Meaning "to unclothe" is recorded from c.1225. Of screw threads, from 1839; of gear wheels, from 1873. Strip poker is attested from 1929; strip search is from 1947.
2. From Middle English strepen, strippen, from Old English strīepan (“plunder”), from Proto-Germanic *strēpōną, from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ter(h₁)- (“to be stiff; be rigid; exert”). Probably related to German Strafe (“deprivation, fine, punishment”).
