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

[NotInTheNuddy]

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?

I sleep naked usually or in nighties or pjs if cold. I never wear knickers though and didn't realise anyone wore knickers and bras to bed until mumsnet

Cannot sleep without my knickers on, I've only been known to sleep fully nude if I've had a meeting with large quantities of alcohol I can sleep topless otherwise it's nightshirt or vest top. DH sleeps naked after DTD or if he's just had a shower otherwise it's just boxers, he's never owned a pair of pj's in his life.

I don't think it's 'icky' but I don't like it. Dh sleeps naked unless it's pretty cold. One night recently I couldn't be arsed to put my pyjamas back on after dtd. I wasn't cold, because it was a warm night, but I didn't sleep well. It just didn't feel right! I do feel the cold a lot anyway though. I usually wear socks in bed except in the height of summer.

I had an ex who could only sleep in his boxers, but refused to wear underwear during the day, which was pretty peculiar.

DH and I both wear pants and a t-shirt, but our flat is fucking freezing north-facing.

I need to sleep naked, DH tends to wear boxers. Even in hospital if I start wearing a nightie, by morning it's on the floor! I just can't sleep entangled in clothing. Bed covers are bad enough!

Well I think naked = icky. I'm not sitting on my bed with bo pants on, noe would I sit on my sofa or similar without pants on.

I have bed bra and knickers just for sleeps, an extensive PJ collection for all temperatures and a number of duvets, throws and blankets to wrap up in.

I sleep with just a sheet about once a year. I'm always cold not in bed though

tiredbutfine presumably you take off your knickers, bra and pjs to have sex in the bed, therefore being naked. If sitting on the bed or going to bed naked is icky then how icky is having sex in the bed as sex produces extra bodily fluids?

"sleeps" wft?. That's the height of icky.

Always naked with my partner, and the bedroom door is locked, never alone. Skin to skin cuddles even more important than sex! I want one now!

dissapointedone you have completely incorrectly read my post.

I like sleeping naked, personally, but nowadays the children come in for a cuddle in the morning, which is obvs a bit weird if I'm starkers. Sometimes I have to strip off in the night because of horrible sweaty hot flushes, and then I'm scrabbling for a t-shirt while they are climbing in.

After sex men just fall to sleep. After cuddling telling you you are a goddess etc etc (ahem)

Women get leakage. Admit it. You need pants.

no wonder your knickers are rusty! :D I clean all that up before going to sleep!

Some of us get it leaking out later. For me anywhere from 30-90 minutes later. I've no idea where it goes in the meantime but it's a pain in the arse. Reason number whatever that I don't actually mind condoms that much!

Maybe it's swimming around looking for eggs? IDK but if I was waiting to clear up before sleep then I'd be really tired the next day. And then there's the normal vagina leakage too.

Not icky. Naked body rubbing snuggles with DH are the best!

What is all this vaginal leakage neurosis? Sue after de you vagina contains secretions but you just go for a wee, it drops out during wee problem sorted. My vagina is not a fecking spring. If the sheets get manky then I have a washing machine. The wearing pants because vaginas are unclean things brigade sound a bit neurotic

Forget my iPod changes stuff. "Sure after sex your vagina...."

Because it feels uncomfortable to be wet between the legs, if you must know. Nothing to do with being unclean.

But if it feels uncomfortable to be wet between the legs and leakage is a problem then surely you are going to have wet knickers between your legs? Wet knickers must be quite uncomfortable.
I go for a wee after sex and any leakage gets sorted then. I don't get random leakage afterwards. I'm not sure how I would get random leakage afterwards seeing as I am lying down and gravity therefore isn't at play.

I get occasional discharge/whatever. Hence not wanting to be bare-arsed. Stuff sneakily dribbling out of my vagina has an uncanny knack of finding its way to my bum crack (weird that), and causing the skin to itch at some point. And as I said, there is no way I'm itching moist arse crack without a barrier, I touch my face way too much. At least if I've scratched my bum through pyjamas (or even quickly wiped with a tissue, as I sometimes do if it's excessive) I can pretend there's nothing gross on my fingers and fall asleep again.

But no, it's impossible apparently, because gravity.

No because I wear a pantyliner, cos that's what it's for

I'm not really sure how it works with gravity either but I assure you I am a veritable fucking fountain

Do we have to have this amazed discussion every time something involving vaginas come up? Some are leakier than others, that's all.

Probably TMI but we keep tissues by the bed - or DH chucks his tshirt by the bed instead of in the wash basket. Either I use tissues or he uses his t-shirt if we are being lazy and we cuddle up and go to sleep. If anything leaks, it leaks on his legs because we are cuddled up. We don't mind a bit of mutual mess. Bed changed often anyway.
