Do women still wear attractive sleepwear to bed at night?

You have to put clothes on every day, so why not just put on something that’s nice?

There are super cold nights I’ll put on my flannels. But for just regular nights where it’s 70 degrees in our room, I’ll always put on a little flimsy silk slip or similar. Or or silk shorts and cami. Just as comfortable if not more so though than a cheap t shirt or synthetic pajamas.

Your married life is different than mine! I usually read to my kids in my pajamas, and then I wear them while I’m making breakfasts and lunches in the morning so I don’t mess up my work clothes. I don’t think any kid wants to see his mom in a little flimsy silk slip.
I also don’t want to clean blood, vomit, or poop in a little flimsy silk slip.
If DH wants to take over these tasks, then I will wear slip. Since he doesn’t care about what I wear as much as he cares about not being the one to get up with kids at night, then I wear what I want to.

I wear very basic mom nightgowns. But I do have a few nightgowns designed to attract a bull. They are very effective!

I wear what makes it most comfortable for me to get a good night's sleep, which makes me a better parent, a better wife, a better friend, and better at my job. It also increases my life span, keeps my weight healthier, and improves my mood. I am not trading all of that in so that my husband can think I look sexy while I'm asleep. What a ridiculous concept. I don't exist to be an object of sexual attraction for someone else. Sleeping in lingerie or a silk cami and shorts is highly uncomfortable for me.

Agreed. I wear my pajamas a lot and consider them lounge wear. Kids absolutely don’t need to see lingerie.

My main reason for not wearing lingerie to sleep is that I need my shoulders covered. I just can’t sleep when my shoulders aren’t covered by at least a short sleeve. Dh has found me short sleeved silk lingerie over the years and I do like those.

Printfresh pajamas are so ugly.

Are you a guy? I love their prints and that style of pajama. I don’t look nice in a tshirt unless I’m wearing a bra, but those style of button up tops still looks nice braless. I wear mine a lot tighter than many of their models. I’m not into baggy pajamas. The shorts are also really cute on me and are pretty short.

I just wear a t shirt and either pajama pants or athletic shorts. I'm currently 35 weeks pregnant and have kid and I'm not going to be getting up to nurse or deal with a nightmare in slinky slips.

My husband sleeps in the same kind of thing. My big pregnant self sometimes steals his pajama pants.

I run hot when I sleep so I sleep in just my underwear. Can't keep my husband off of me.

T-shirt- all those button up PJs are so uncomfortable, and the lingerie isn't practical when you have kids. I have a ton of it, which makes DH happy when I put it on, but it comes off so quickly 😉

There are also a lot of men who couldn't care less. I once saw a man buy an outfit at Victoria's Secret for his woman and have to say my DH has never bought me any.

My MIL bought me a bunch of lingerie when I’d been dating DH for about a year. It was so creepy

I wear his old dress shirts and nothing else. Covered up enough around the kids because they are big on me and he thinks they are sexy - like in the old movies when the women had to be covered up on screen but she spent the night with the leading man.

Pretty nightgown to sleep. Practical, season appropriate robes over gown, after getting out of bed and before getting dressed for day.

My partner is my sleepwear. Until I get cold. Then on come the pjs and socks.

Yes.
