Bedding. Flat Sheet: Necessary or not?
 

So I've noticed something on some of my most recent vacation visits. People seem to be foregoing the flat sheet bedding in favor of just a fitted sheet on the bed and the comforter on top. Opinions? Is the flat sheet necessary?

The comforter have a washable duvet cover when you’ve run across this?

I’m pro flat sheet. Particularly doesn’t seem replaceable for summer when not all of comforter is needed and I also blast the AC in my house.

Who sleeps under heavy covers in the summer? A full set of sheets if I feel a chill I pull the flat over me. Thats almost never.

How is this even a question?

Me, two blankets. Heart rate gets low enough I get colder than heck.


That being said, both sheets are necessary. When visiting Germany several times on business a few years ago, I didn't care for how the hotel beds were made.

A fitted bottom sheet with a comforter plopped in the middle of the bed. It reminded me of how a young bachelor might get by not giving a crap about doing laundry or making the bed.

Don’t scrimp on my thread counts

It's pretty gross that if there is NO flat sheet, everyone is skanking and jizzing and dirtying up the comforter/blanket and you know that isn't washed after every visit.

Flat sheets are a MUST both for hygiene and comfort

This. Hotel beds gross me out when I figured out all they wash is the sheets.

As far as my personal residence I never used to sleep with one. I’d flail around and it would end up kicked down. (My parents kept my house hotter than I can tolerate for sleeping. It sucked. A lot. )

But I must have become more refined in my old age because now I use one every night.

Word.

Never had a comforter that was comfortable. Definitely need a sheet to keep the nipples unchafed.

My wife hogs the comforter and I get the flat sheet, so in terms of husband survival, Yes, the flat sheet is necessary.

You've been doing it wrong this whole time.

This. If you go flat sheet-less, you are basically subhuman.

Don’t most males (alphas at least) only sleep under a sheet in the summer?

Stupid ass thread.
