What proportion of adults sleep naked I wonder? I haven't found any reliable figures from web searching, but one small sample showed a surprising number of people who thought it wrong, or who wouldn't dare because of the risk of being found out accidentally, or by an evacuation for a fire. I suppose sleeping nude is a sort of introductory nudism. So I wonder what proportion?
Indirectly reported from a survey of sleeping habits in The Times: 9 of 88 respondents.
Another, unattributed report said 1 in 3, of which 2:1 in favour of male (ie 44% of males and 22% of females).
A survey of 500 women in Bella, 2007, in UK, supposedly found 17% of them slept always nude; 19% of married women.
A survey in Naturist Life, December 2007, reveals that of 125 naturists 86% always sleep nude and 3% never do, which is hardly surprising.
This survey was reported in November 2012: The UK’s ‘Skinny Napping’ Index, conducted by Travelodge, surveyed 2,000 British adults to investigate what Britons are wearing to bed in order to get a good night’s sleep. Research findings revealed that over a third (35%) of British men like to sleep in the buff compared to just a quarter of women.
