I enjoy sleeping completely naked. Is there any concerns I should have?

I keep my bedroom window covered up and I know not to near my front windows without putting clothes on. So there is no chances of my neighbors accidentally seeing me naked.

I live alone so no family members or roommates issues there.

Fatherly Advice agony auntLet me reiterate,

Then you can all blast my rarings again.

I have never slept in a burning home. I have never slept in a burgled home. I have never slept in a flooded home, I have never slept through a tornado, hurricane, tsunami, Earthquake or volcano. In fact most people can make this same claim because these events are very low probability.

So you can structure your life around the 1 in 10,000 chance. Or you can just sleep comfortably.

I wear a seatbelt, I keep a first aid kit in my car and home. That's about as far as my native paranoia pushes me.

I suppose it is possible that at some point I might find myself naked in the presence of a stranger. Nope sorry that isn't true. That has happened to me multiple times, and No one was traumatized by my nudity. And I don't need counseling myself so, I'll take that risk. I'll pick my nose in my car. I'll have sexual intercourse in a hotel room. I'll swim in public pools. And I'll enjoy it.

What if a burgler breaks in? You can't do much if your danglers are all exposed.

I mean, that's your choice. But do keep in mind that in the event of an Earth quake or an emergency you at least have boxers on or something, otherwise you may put yourself in a dangerous situation of not making it in time to leave the building in those few seconds that it took you to throw on underwear before going outside.

It's fine to sleep naked. The only other thing you might want to consider is what would happen if you had to leave the house quickly - such as a fire.

Just leave a robe near the bed so you can grab it if necessary so you don't have to run out into the street in the buff.

Fatherly Advice agony auntI don't sleep naked.

Lately I've taken to wearing even more to bed.

It has more to do with my wifes prefered sleeping temperature and her perimenopause than concern for my neighbors.

I have never slept in a burning house.

Andie's Thoughts agony auntI'm surprised that, with all of the privacy you've said you have, you'd even feel the need to ask us. It's strange. Do whatever you want to do - if your sheets are clean, there's no problem.

CindyCares agony aunt No concern; some doctors actually opine that sleeping naked is healthier.

Only remember to keep your bed sheets sanitary , clean and dust-mite free ( dust mites eat dead skin cells) , by changing them often,- more so than if you wore P.J.s or underwear in bed.

Honeypie agony auntI can't see why it would be a problem.

You wouldn't answer the door naked, right? So really who would see you?

If you DO worry, why not get one of those privacy window film or vinyl static clings for the windows? It would ensure that people can not look in and accidentally catch you with your pants down.

Then what exactly is the problem? You just described what is called privacy and total freedom.

A female reader, EmmyApple United States +, writes (7 January 2020):

I usually sleep naked! The only thing I ever worry about is a spider biting me in a sensitive area (extremely unlikely but terrifying). Just check your bed for insects before getting into it, don’t leave food in your bedroom (it attracts bugs), and get under the blankets for protection. I have slept naked most of my life and never had a problem.

Think you might be worrying too much. I have slept naked for as long as I can remember and it's never even dawned on me to worry about it!
