According to a new survey of over 1,000 people across the country, 58 percent say they sleep in the nude.

Not surprisingly, men are more likely to sleep naked than women – though more than half of women still report sleeping without any clothes. Only 39 percent of Boomers sleep in the buff, compared with nearly 65 percent of Millennials, the survey found.

Relationships seem to relax people's sleeping habits, with 72 percent of nude sleepers report being in a relationship, compared to only only half of single people. More than half of people who sleep nude report that their partner does, too.

[...] Nearly 70 percent of respondents who sleep naked said they do so because they're more comfortable without clothes. About 58 percent said nude sleeping was relaxing, and 54 percent said it improves their sleep. (Roughly 15 percent said they sleep naked to keep their genitals "free and happy.")

So... all? or Nothing?

    I sleep in whatever I was wearing before I decided I was going to sleep.
    Jeans, shorts, sweatpants, doesn't matter. I keep my shirt on too.

    I guess it's because I just don't care that much, maybe I'm just one of those people who isn't bothered much by clothes.

        In your sleep, everyone is alone, what you see in your dreams isn't real.
        On the same line, under their clothes, everybody - awake or asleep - is naked.

          That's not true, under my clothes I wear underwear! :-)

            3. Yum
            4. I came in his ass last night.

        Hey, listen, only because he keeps all his fucks for himself it doesn't mean he sleeps alone.

    I have done that. Don't much like it, but I can do it when circumstances warrant.

    a. Too damned tired to get out of those damned clothes
    b. Too damned cold, no way am I getting undressed
    c. Military life, the Bad Guy is close, need to jump and move when he shows up
    d. Trying to catch a few ZZZZZ's someplace public or semi-public

    It's MUCH more relaxing to shed boots, jeans, and shirt, at the least. And, you never wake up with aches and sores where the seams cut into you for half the night.

      You stay warmer if you sleep nude, assuming normal clothes and bedding rather than a snow suit and just a sheet.

      c. Stay away from muslim infestations
      d. Good plan
