It might not even occur to me to think beyond the literal implications of the invitation. I would not equate "want to come over?" with "want to have sex?" But this explains some funny situations I've been in.

My dad was the same way. He told me that once in college he took a girl out on a date and when they got back on campus she asked him if he'd like to come up and see her dorm room. He replied, "No, thank you. All of the dorm rooms have the same basic design."
I'm not a girl, but I think it would depend on how the question was interpreted and how it was meant to be interpreted.
I've invited women to my house before with no thoughts of having sex or even kissing.
I have been invited in to women's homes with no expectation that there was going to be anything other than more conversation and an opportunity to see someone's stuff.
I like seeing places I have not seen before... I like to see if they have books and which ones they are, furniture, artwork, the different appliances they may have in their kitchens... stuff like that.
I'm trying to remember a time when being invited in to a girl's home made me think there was going to be sex involved.
I really don't think it has happened unless we had discussed it beforehand.
