I think it's gross to put coats on a bed. But i grew up in a city in a different country and it was dirty outside.
When we expectEd more than 2 people over we would move all of our family coats into a room (on a chair not bed) and leave the coat closet and extra hangers for the guests. I do this in my own house now. Before any large party the coat rack is empty. |
People have sex on the couch you sit on, too, you know. |
| I think you can buy a coat rack on Amazon. |
I think they meant the coats are dirty from being outside and would foul up the bed. |
| Seriously the weirdest part about this whole thing is your husbands overreaction . |

Always on a bed, especially when there is a big party and there isn't enough room on the rack. I grew up in New England and everyone did this.
Actually there is a scene in the movie Ghost Busters, where Lewis the accountant is hosting a party. As his guests come in, he takes their coat and puts them on his bed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i13POQtbzjo |
| Am I the only thinking about bed bugs? |
| Ew. I’m not putting someone’s dirty street clothes on my bed. Let alone a coat. |
| If it’s a party with dozens of guests, spare bed or spare chair is fine. If it’s just for dinner they need to clear out their coat closet. Insane that they hoard so many coats that guests coats don’t fit |
| We host a fairly large (well, for our home) holiday gathering every year, with about 70-100 guests. I spread out a sheet over the beds in two of our rooms, and guests' coats on top. Keeps any outside dirt from getting on our bedspreads. |
| Clear out your coat closet before a party. Rent a coat rack. |
| Spare bed is fine. |
If they’re in the house, they’re in the house. If they’re on the coats, there on the coats, whether they’re in the closet or on the bed. “Bed” bugs can find a host on any fabric. |
| We have an alcove/nook in our guest room and we have two tension shower curtain rods that we put up for guest coats. |
