Do you have a "naked house"?

adrianLO

This might be looking far into the future for the FTMs but this is the only board I really go on and was curious what people thought.

I grew up in a house with just my mom and sisters.  Since it was always just us girls we were a very "naked friendly" household.  Not like weirdly or anything but we all felt comfortable enough to walk in the bathroom if someone was in the shower and walk around without clothes on while we were getting ready or something.  DH came from a complete opposite type of house.  He is always fully clothed at home, but I'm not.  I sleep in my underwear and if I'm getting ready I do my hair and makeup before getting dressed.  

Now that I have two boys, I guess I'll have to change my habits.  My oldest is 3 now and since I've been BFing I've had to start answering some boob questions and things.  I'm just curious if other people come from 'naked houses' or am I just weird like my DH thinks?

I didn't grow up in a "naked house" but we have one now! We're both comfortable with missing items of clothing around each other and now having a baby it seems as if we wear less clothes than ever between breastfeeding and burping.

I'm sure when DS gets older and figures stuff out but for now it works so well for us and has made me very aware of my body.

My house growing up was definitely a mom-naked house, but I don't think I'll be quite as comfortable walking around naked as she was. DH and I will both probably have a time where it won't seem appropriate anymore (him sooner than me), though we'll certainly make sure DD feels comfortable about her body and there's no shame in nakedness, or anything.

I'm in the same boat.  I mean we didn't necessarily walk around with no clothes on, but seeing someone in their underwear was pretty common and NBD.  Throughout my pregnancy I walked around pretty much half nude because I was so dang hot all the time.  DH, on the other hand, does not leave the bedroom before changing out of his pajamas.

DH and I both grew up in a naked house. My dad hung around the house in his boxers growing up, and he probably still does! Me and my mom showered together when I was little, and I always slept in my underwear and a tee.

I've seen MIL in her underwear more than I care to admit. And apparently, FIL used to poop with the door open.

H and I still are naked people. I rarely shut the bathroom door and H sleeps in his underwear! Also I'm bfing so my boobs,are hanging out on a daily basis.

It was the same way in my house growing up. Not fully makes, but underwear and a bra? Yep. I cannot stand putting clothes on right out of the shower....I need to air dry. My SO though? Nope. He actually told me when I was pregnant, "You know you can't walk around makes anymore right?" Like our two month old son is going to know what's going on.

Good to know alot of people are like me.  I see no point in even bothering  to wear anything but my nursing bra (if that) while at the house.  Yet, I've never seen DH walk around the house without a shirt on even in the summer.  My son on the other hand is always in his underwear.  He takes off his pants as soon as he gets in the house. Lol guess he takes after me.

Growing up I lived in a half naked house lol. My brothers walked around,in just boxers, my dad in his underwear and a tee shirt. My mom and I were always dressed, but I walked around in tank tops and shorts. When I was a little kid,my mom would take me and my twin brother in the shower with her. I don't remember it being weird or anything. My SO wont leave the bedroom unless he has on a,shirt and shorts.

This.

DH was raised in a "naked house" but I wasn't.  I'm actually more comfortable undressed around his mom and sisters than I am around my own.  But we definitely have a naked house now (it's noon and I'm in a bra and boxers because we haven't left the house yet).  My DS is 4 and still showers with me.  I don't think there's anything weird about it unless you make it into something weird.

I wouldn't really call the house I was raised in as a "naked house" but when we were little we never shut the bathroom door and I would sleep in just undies or even naked. My sister and I shared a room.

DH and his brother feel perfectly fine just running around in their boxer briefs without blinking an eye.

Once we got married I sleep in the nude almost every night. When it comes to breast feed I just pop them out, never shut the bathroom door. We are married not like he hasn't seen it all before. Things will probably not change with LO.

omg no way! Jealous of those who have that freedom, though. I'm such a prude. Even around my husband.

I grew up with two younger brother and a dad, so that wasn't happening.
