HYGIENE.
Don't come into bed without a bath or shower, teeth done, etc.

It helps if pyjamas look nice, and aren't worn and holey.

That's all. No fake polyester lingerie or gross make-up, please.

Nudity is only a big deal if you make it one. If kids are raised from the beginning with the understanding that it's natural and nothing to be embarrassed about in appropriate contexts, then that's what it will be.

When the kids were really little, we simply got out of bed naked when they needed something. As they got a little older, they learned to knock and wait until we put clothes on. Not surprisingly, they've also all slept naked since adolescence since they thought it was a given that people stopped wearing clothes to bed as adults.

Anyway, back on topic - I know DW is in the mood when she comes to bed actually wearing something sexy. Funny that clothing means sex, I know!

How often do you change your sheets?

Generally weekly. Is the implication that sleeping without clothes is dirty? Only a person who doesn't would think that.


No, I don't sleep naked. I do think it is dirty. You should probably change sheets at least every other day.

I sleep naked. DH prefers wearing underwear. I don't get being presentable in bed? What is this? I'm clean, nude and ready for adult time most nights.

Should we present with poetry?

Do you wear your business socks, PP?

This has made me so, so happy

I WISH i could sleep naked - it does seem so beautiful and intimate but I just can't! I almost always wear a silk slip. Easy and comfortable but just a little something.

If I wind up in my husband's bed he knows it's for sex. Period. So I only go to his bed for sex. His snoring doesn't permit sleeping.

He sleeps nude in his bed, I sleep nude in mine. He dresses before coming into the kitchen for coffee, I grab my robe if I get up during the night. We have a grown son living here, I do not want to blind him. But, the other night, I caught son in the pantry and I swear he had on some thong underwear. I saw WAAAAAY too much skin flashing. All I remember was laughing my ass off hysterically. He scooted back to his room with of all things, Ding Dongs.

Long ago someone asked my husband if I wore sexy lingerie. He said why ? I'm just going to take it all off.

Presentable means clean and ready to rumble in our house.

Totally. I want him to want it, even if he's not going to get it. I only wear my ducky pajamas if he's out of town or I'm traveling for work without him.

We have a puppy so I have to run outside a few times overnight so I'm sleeping in layers of fuzzy pjs. DH doesn't care what I wear to bed. I just make sure I don't smell!

Are you a man?

Me? I go all Hillary Clintonish and wear a black pants suit to bed. Makes me feel powerful and lets DH know I plan to be on top that night.

Tank tops and boy shorts pretty much every night. I wouldn't go to bed looking frumpy and dumpy any more than I'd go to the grocery store in old stretch pants and a stained T-shirt.
