Take this as more of a field report. I stumbled into the concept accidentally, by virtue of not having time to get my laundry done. All of my "sleep shorts" were dirty (I use the same shorts as when I go to the gym, so I go through them fast). The pants I was wearing were too hot to sleep in, so I just decided to sleep naked. I love sleeping naked when my wife's out of town - so much cooler and more refreshing. Never really tried it with her around. She used to get weirded out by nakedness and exposed genitalia (for those who don't know me, she was brought up in an extremely conservative, sexually repressive religious environment). I think I had done it once in my beta days and she made a nasty comment and I never tried again.

Anyway, for the first couple days she didn't notice, or at least didn't say anything. Then day 3 hits and she mutters while mostly asleep, "Are you naked?" She then cuddles up to me in the king position, claiming to have no memory of this the next day.

Interesting. I do the laundry, but decide to keep sleeping naked anyway. If nothing else, I thought it would help toward deconditioning her anti-sexual programming by normalizing nakedness. Since then, she's cuddling up to me most nights and now remembering doing so, oftentimes playing with my junk, and a couple times leading into sex. This is totally backwards, given that even as recently as a month and a half ago she's firing her tongue off about how rude and insensitive it is to initiate in the middle of the night, demanding I never touch her while she's sleeping. ("Well, how am I going to give you a mind-blowing orgasm without touching you? Challenge accepted," I said with a smirk. Of course, the next night I lost the challenge, but still won the game.)

Point being: a door that was previously closed (sex after she falls asleep) is starting to open. Why? I don't know. Humor my speculation:

  • Pheromones not being stifled by my clothes.

  • Increased access to genitalia boosts sexual awareness.

  • Increased skin-to-skin contact while we cuddle (specifically below the waist, where her legs touch my legs rather than my shorts) = unintended night time kino.

  • Just laying down next to someone in bed who is naked subconsciously (if not actually consciously) produces sexual thoughts.

CAVEAT: I'm 100% confident that this would not have worked if I was still overweight and weak. Noobs: don't try this until you hit the gym for a few months.

I'm going to keep this test going for more data. 2 weeks isn't quite enough for a fully-fledged conclusion yet. But, I thought it'd be worth sharing and seeing if other people have had similar experiences.

ALSO - I'm thinking after another week or so, if results are still good, I'll explain to her how refreshing I feel sleeping naked and suggest she try doing the same. I'm confident on my suggestion that she'll try it at least once ... not sure where it'll go from there. But, given that I'm most horny right when I go to bed (a couple hours after she's been asleep), this might be a solution to getting sex when I want it and not trying to force myself to be into it at times that are convenient to initiate for her.
