Told to Sleep Nude
I am also a member of the Nude Sleepers Forum.
Many men and a few women have said that at some point one or both parents told them that they were too old to wear anything to bed and had to start sleeping nude. Did that happen to any of you?
As a parent, did you tell your children that they should start sleeping nude?
My dad always slept nude and I started doing the same at 10-11. I also started hanging nude in my bedroom at the same time. I showered with my dad so he, and my mom, saw me naked everyday. My dad would have been a nudist if I didn't have an older sister. He didn't feel comfortable naked in front of her, though she did see me occasionally. That's probably why I never cared, and still don't care, who sees me naked.
I started at about age 15. I didn't understand why I needed to have a special outfit for sleeping. I'll wear socks to bed in the winter, but that's it. Even when I was on company trips and had to share a room... I told my new roommate that I slept nude and wasn't going to change just for his comfort.
On the contrary, my mom was so old-school that she thought everyone should be modest in bed. But I discreetly started sleeping nude around 14 and always do. It feels so nice to get under the sheets without having anything on, even just underwear.
3 weeks ago today I had a heart catherization which required two punctures near my groin. When the discharge nurse was giving me my walking papers she went over the importance of keeping the area dry and plenty of ventilation. She warned me that if I wore tighty whities i should make sure they do not rub over the holes. I told her that i have gone commando for decades, and go nude around home the area will get plenty of ventilation . She gave me a big thumbs up . I think implied in there was that sleeping sans restrictions was part of the healing plan. All healed up well and I am feeling great with 2 stents in. Restricted lifting and other activities expired a week ago.
