To think sleeping naked is a bit...ick?

Just started seeing someone (been friends for a long time) and last night we had our first sleep over. DTD, all good and lovely but afterwards I was dying to put my pants back on.

We ended up having a laugh about it and he admitted he's a naked sleeper, which I have never been. It's not a huge issue but it got me thinking...

Does anyone else out there find sleeping naked icky? Or am I the strange one?

Why is it icky?!

TurnOffTheTv · 06/09/2015 21:01

Hmm. Strange. What's so icky about it?

TenForward82 · 06/09/2015 21:02

My DH does it, I don't feel comfortable (I often get cold and feel weirdly vulnerable sleeping nude shrug )

What's icky about it? Also I find it strangely telling that you refer to sleeping together as a sleepover!

I normally sleep nude unless it is freezing cold.

GaryBaldy · 06/09/2015 21:03

I'm always cold so like to be wrapped up in layers but in the high summer I like sleeping naked, it feels more, umm, free I suppose.

Palomb · 06/09/2015 21:04

I don't think it's ick at all but I hate sleeping completely nude, I feel the draughts on my arse!

RealityCheque · 06/09/2015 21:04

Not 'icky' at all for me.

We sleep naked when we are alone or with shorts and top when children are with us.

TeaAndNoSympathy · 06/09/2015 21:04

I like sleeping naked. Why's it icky?

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 06/09/2015 21:04

Just for poll purposes, we sleep naked and don't find it icky.

Before we had dc we slept naked. When the dc were toddlers/small and would get into bed with us I started wearing a nightdress as they used to snuggle up to me. Now they are older and don't get into bed, we're back to naked.

PersonalClown · 06/09/2015 21:05

I always sleep naked. I have to be quiet cool/cold to sleep well and naked works best!

fastdaytears · 06/09/2015 21:05

I can't see anything icky about it! My preference is loose-ish pj trousers and no top, but naked good too!

blibblobblub · 06/09/2015 21:06

YABU, not icky at all. If I wasn't bfing and leaking everywhere I'd totally be sleeping naked.

OneBreathAfterAnother · 06/09/2015 21:06

I sleep nude. I think it's a personal thing, though. I change my sheets twice a week and I'm not a particularly sweaty or dischargey person, so it suits me. I get all tangled in pyjamas.

I'm not really bothered either way when it comes to other people, though.

SometimesItRains · 06/09/2015 21:06

I don't find it icky, but I don't like it. Apart from being cold most of the time, I feel weird and vulnerable without pjs on.

ScarletRuby · 06/09/2015 21:06

It takes a parade of penguins and polar bears to stroll by my bed before I sleep in PJ's.

Misnomer · 06/09/2015 21:06

I'm not a naked sleeper. I'm just more comfortable with something on, even if it's boiling hot. I don't think it ick though, just not for me.

TRexingInAsda · 06/09/2015 21:07

It's much more icky to put your pants back on. You'll be peeling them off in the morning.

annandale · 06/09/2015 21:07

God I love sleeping naked. actually I find it a bit annoying that dh always gets dressed for sleep - to me it kills the spontaneity if we are going to have sex and we're dealing with buttons and elastic. He's not as coldblooded as me though (I'm nearly always warm) so I try to sympathise not very successfully

StarlingMurmuration · 06/09/2015 21:07

We both sleep naked unless it's really cold. Even then I'll only have a t-shirt or a little nightie on, I hate wearing anything on my bottom half in bed.

MirandaWest · 06/09/2015 21:07

DP and I sleep naked. Is nice not icky :)

EponasWildDaughter · 06/09/2015 21:07

I love sleeping naked. For me it feels like a marker of adult hood. PJs seem a childish thing to me.

WorldsBiggestGrotbag · 06/09/2015 21:08

I don't think it's icky but I personally hate sleeping naked. I like my huge boobs to be contained in a vest top, they're uncomfortable if not.

FarFromAnyRoad · 06/09/2015 21:08

I think 'icky' is 'icky'. What are you afraid of? Don't tell me - it's poo crumbs isn't it? Grin
