It is according to the Biblical scholars I’ve heard speak about it.
Well, a couple verses later, we read:
Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!
(KJV)
So whatever he was wearing, it was less than what was deemed modest by the standards of the day.

So a principal had a neighbor killed so he could bone the wife he impregnated? #telephone #didntseethearticleatfirst
86YO dude brutally murders his wife and brags about it to her family members who were there when the cops were taking him away and continues to brag about it to the cops while being checked out at the hospital and then after having been mirandaized. The next day at the jail he starts complaining of chest pains and they take him to the hospital where he dies.
And old man, turned 86
beat the 
out of his wife, died the next day
it’s lettuce, in your gyro
it’s things that aren’t raisins or peanuts, in your GORP
and isn’t it ironic… don’t you think…

yeah, but we’ve all done that. shouldn’t make anyone say WTF.
I mean to be fair, after impregnating Uriah’s wife (Bathsheba), David first tried to trick Uriah into sleeping with Bathsheba so Uriah would think Bathsheba’s baby was his own. It was only when Uriah refused that David sent him to the bloodiest part of the war in the hopes that the war would make a widow of Bathsheba.
His first choice was just making Uriah a cuckold … so much better, you see.
why would you need to trick a guy to sleep with his own super hot wife? Conclusion: Uriah was teh gay
Yeah, that part is weird. Supposedly something along the lines of a code of honor, I guess… if the other soldiers couldn’t have sex with their wives then he wasn’t going to either.
But… he was summoned home by the king and they weren’t so it’s not like he helped out his fellow soldiers in any way by not having sex with Bathsheba. I always thought that was a particularly weird part of the story.

Doing some reading, this one is possibly the only problematic one of his 8 wives. I guess despite some earlier verses like Deuteronomy 17:17 which specifically says that the King (of Israel) shall not take many wives, that must have meant “9 or more”.
Because later in a different book, God specifically says he gave David his several wives, but this was considered okay other than Bathsheba. Until Jesus said differently later anyway.
Solomon of course took something like 800 wives/concubines. Maybe he was the guy that “ruined it for everyone”.
I think this what Republicans want when they long for a return to Biblical values.

One of the expectation of soldiers was to refrain from sexual relations while serving.
Uriah was still serving (even though he wasn’t on the front lines).
Other places was that a soldier who married was to be given a year “sabbatical” from military duty.
