I just went to the bathroom and my brother, who sleeps in the nude, opened the door -- nude. He's not a prepossessing sight. My friend also sleeps in the nude. I can't really imagine that. I tried it once when it was really hot and felt horribly exposed, but I think lots of people sleep in the nude and I'd like to hear from you all about it. Maybe I'm the weird one. I was discussing this with students today and they said they got hung up in their clothes if they sleep in a tee shirt or something. I sleep in a 3X nightgown which is pretty comfortable since I now wear about a 1 1/2 X. Lord, I hope for a 1X before long.

Wow! A lot of naked sleepers. I feel too exposed also, plus if someone breaks in my house... I don't want to be naked! (isn't that the weirdest statement???)

I have to be the only cold natured fat girl I know. I sleep in a heated waterbed, in PJ's with a fuzzy blanket next to me, then a comforter and finally a very heavy quilt on top of that....then add socks and sometimes a hat and you have me....Lord, what am I going to do when I lose weight!?! I may have to get me a burly man to sleep with (I suppose one for each side would be greedy).:faint:

out of my mind...please leave a message...cat

my husband must have married the wrong chick. Seems like the majority sleep naked. He's always trying to get me to sleep naked. I just can't do it...I feel to exposed.

I'm with you,babe. Old t shirt and jama pants everyday every season.....I'm way to shy especially being overweight. But before the weight i didn't sleep nude. We R Just the Modest Ones...

I slept naked for many years until I had my child relatively late in life. You know, nursing, full breasts etc.

Like a lot of you I used to hate being tangled up in clothes at night.

We spent many years in the cold climate up north, several of those in a small cabin with no running water. If I had to pee in the night I would climb out of bed into the frigid cabin air, slip on boots and a jacket and shuffle out, bare arsed, in 20 below, sometimes more, weather to the outhouse. I just didn't get it that jammies keep you warm.

One good thing, we had a styrofoam toilet seat in our privvie. Instant warmth on your bottom! Yikes, maybe that's tom.

I actually missed going outside when we finally built our house and got an indoor toilet. I missed being in touch with the weather and I missed the northern lights.

I sleep naked on occasion, but usually in a tee shirt (summer) and LOTS of stuff (like sweats) in the winter. I have come a long way. When I was young, I not only had to have a nightie or PJs in order to sleep, I required underwear, too.

I bought my DH silky PJ pants for Valentine's Day. I want him to wear them to bed, but not necessarily to sleep in. They feel soooooooooo sexy!

What do you mean underpants too. Of course, I wear underpants when I sleep as well as my nightgown. If there's ever a fire, I'm prepared. I've already figured out that I'll throw Mother out her window, round up the pet and save my laptop. But I'll be well dressed with undies on.

I have slept nude for many years. Its the whole tangle thing. I do not sleep restfully (I have PLMD and lack of REM paralysis. I sleep like I'm kickboxing.). Its a big enough trial just to keep the covers on the bed and the things on the nightstand (its only a foot away from the bed-- so sometimes I sweep things off of it, or if its one of those when I am throwing things, or tossing my pillow around, I don't know stuff will end up). Worrying about keeping clothes on me and comfortable is just another irritation- and one I was glad to eliminate. Sometimes I will wake up briefly because I am cold and then I take back some of the blankets from my husband or pick some up off the floor, find my pillows and go back to sleep.

What I really want to know is how to keep my hair from getting knotted and hopelessly tangled. I'm thinking maybe if I try a braid and hairnet... If I can get the hairnet to stay on.

I used to have very long hair and I am a burrower...several pillows and burrow down into them...I kept my hair untangled by doing a loose braid. Just make sure not to tie it with a rubber band....does nasty things to the ends of the hair...good luck!

out of my mind right now...please leave a message...cat

How do you keep your hair in the braid? Is it a normal braid or a special kind? I've found when I do braids my hair comes out of them, so I was wondering if there was a technique... I also do this wierd repetitive head turning thing in my sleep which I suspects contributes to the knots, but I really hate having to cut them out of my hair after spending thirty minutes with detangler in the mornings. (and yes I have complained to my neurologist about this)

What do you mean underpants too. Of course, I wear underpants when I sleep as well as my nightgown. If there's ever a fire, I'm prepared. I've already figured out that I'll throw Mother out her window, round up the pet and save my laptop. But I'll be well dressed with undies on.

HAHA!! thats funny, years ago my grandfather had that happen to him. Had a curtain catch fire in an old ranch house and after he got everyone out and they were standing outside he realised he was BUFF!!

I usually sleep naked or with just a short tee. Anything more I will get tangled up in. If I do fall asleep with clothes on, they are always wadded up at the end of the bed by the time I wake up.

In winter I do go to bed with socks sometimes..those always end up off to though.

Holy Cow! Not only am I armed with underwear and a nightgown, but I also wear socks to bed. I often have to remove them when my feet finally get warm. I have the feeling that I may always be single since I'm just not sexy in bed. I even cover up with my nightgown which is fleece and warm. Oh well, the cat likes to sleep with me.

I will only sleep in a very baggy very fine cotton nightgown or nightshirt. These are getting to be quite hard to find. Everyone buys pajamas these days. And there are a lot of synthetics out there.:rose: I can't wear anything on my lower half; it quickly crawls up and into my arse and then I have to haul it out again.

And I have sensitive skin and am usually too hot! Even in winter, I always have a fan on. I used to sleep nekkid when I was younger and much, much thinner but now I am embarassed. :omg: I also have high thread count bed sheets now that I am an old fart. It's the least that I can do for myself, eh.:rose:

sorry it took so long to reply. I would just braid my hair about halfway and then use a comfortable hair band to hold it in place. Stayed braided even on my most restless nights....good luck.

Oh my gosh. I have this recurring nightmare that someone breaks in to my house and I chase him out and run down the street after him stark naked. Talk about scaring and blinding the neighbors (My skin is really pale). I am in t-shirt or tank with cotton bottoms or shorts.
