Usually, naked (used to freak my mother out somethin’ fierce: “But what if the house catches fire?!?!?” “Uh, ma, if the house is on fire, I’m either going to have time to grab my robe, or barring that, being naked is going to be low on my list of things to worry about!”)
However: just recently, my feet (especially my right one) has been doing this weird thing where it spasms (to the point of being painful enough to wake me up) when my feet are cold! So, since nights have started getting cold here, I often sleep in nothing but fuzzy socks!
I keep my cozy fuzzy robe (sensing a pattern here? I like fuzzy things! ) right at the foot of my bed for middle-of-the-night getting up, whether it’s a bathroom run or if mudgirl needs me during the night, or if I need to get up and take something for my sinuses, etc.
I also wear my robe while I’m dressing in the morning.
ETA: I am a sheet snob. I don’t have to pay a lot of money for my sheets (and in fact, prefer not to), but they must be high thread count (at least 660) and good cotton (preferably Egyptian, but 100% Pima or a Pima/Egyptian blend is fine). So I figure I get more of my money’s worth if more of my body is actually in contact with the sheets!
I sleep naked, or wear boxers if we have guests in the house.
My robe is within easy reach, and the boxers are under the pillow for emergencies, but I am not shy. Heaven help anyone who breaks into the house and wakes me up. The are going to see my pasty-white body looming up at them out of the dark. Scare em to death, that’s my motto
Boxers. I’m an …active… sleeper, and trying to disentangle my nuts from the sheet when I’m only semi-awake has had less than pleasant results. Well, that, and my ass starts sweating about the tempature I like under the covers.
Male and I wear a nightshirt. I used to sleep sans any clothing at all because I enjoyed the freedom it gave me, but situations and people kept entering the equasion and I found that a nightshirt provided the lack of confinement I liked and also gave me some privacy during emergency situations.
The hard part was finding a place where I could buy a nightshirt in the 21st century. I finally discovered The Vermont Country Store.
Since I moved out on my own I’ve done nekkid. I think it’s because my dad usually slept that way, told myself that I have to give it a shot when I’m out on my own.
When girlfriend moved in, I respected her by putting on boxers, but after a few years and marrying said girlfriend, I was comfortable enough to go back to nekkid. Have always wondered why wife doesn’t (usually long tees and panties for her), as I’m a firm convert to nude sleeping now (and have occassionally tried to convince the Mrs. of same, in part because of what antitor01 suggested ). I also thought that most men prefer nekkid and most women don’t, so it was surprising to see so many women weigh in on the nude side! I’d really like to see the poll broken down by gender!
I do make one exception, I have two pairs of really old pajamas that don’t fit (way too loose due to shot elastics) that I wear when I’m sick (making my body warm) - well I only wear one pair, just have a choice and something to cycle through if the first pair is dirty. It’s gotten to the point that the wife knows I’m sick if I’m going to bed in jammies.
I tend to perspire when sleeping so few years back started wearing micro fiber long sleeve in the winter and short sleeve in the summer…perfect!!! dat it
Prefer to be naked. I often get overheated while sleeping, no matter how cold the room, and it helps me cool off faster. Also don’t like fabric restricting me or bunching anywhere. But I’ve been in list of situations as an adult where I wear something to bed - I just don’t like it.
I love sleeping naked, but usually wear shorts, or sweats so old they saw Clinton in the white house. Stopped sleeping naked when I started sleep walking again. Don’t want to be arrested walking around outside!
I am shocked at the number of ‘nothings’, even though I’m one of them.
I also don’t go nekkid at other people’s houses, nor when I have guests in my house. I don’t like the idea of having to get dressed to go to the bathroom, or whatever, lest I be seen in my starkers. On those days, it’s a shirt and shorts/pajama bottoms.
My boy likes to wear a ‘nighttime hat’ which is really just a pair of pajama bottoms put on his head, like a doubled version of what Ebenezer Scrooge would wear to bed. Weird kid.
Whatever I happen to be wearing. Maybe it’s my work clothes that I was wearing all day, maybe it’s shorts and a t-shirt, maybe it’s sweatpants, maybe it’s just socks. Just leave me where I fall.
