I wear pajamas and I'm male.

Poll

Are pajamas really that bad?

What's the big deal? I have been the topic of jokes and laughs because of it and seriously I don't understand what's wrong with it.

You can buy male pajamas from many places which suggests alot of males do actually wear them, does anyone else?

I beginning to think wearing them at uni may be a no-go now :frown:

Oooh and please don't wear them at uni, unless you want to look like a fool, no offense.

nothing wrong with them in general, it depends on what they look like...

for example, i made myself a set out of purple velvet, in a pj-suit style, and you'd better believe they look awesome

ale pajamas!!? sounds brilliant.

anyways, i've always slept topless but i've got like pajama bottoms that i wear. they're actually really cool chequered ones. i'd never wear whole suit "proper" pajama type things, but who cares what you wear when you're sleeping as long as you're comfortable in them. I wouldn't worry if i was you, unless you're sleeping with someone... then i'd definitely ditch the PJ's lol

though if its really hot, i dunno how you can wear them... for me its either boxers or nothing if its really hot else i can't sleep very well.
Aww, how cute.

The bedclothes I would regard as appropriate for men are:
Naked
Boxers
Boxers with tshirt
Some kind of jogging bottoms
Jogging bottoms with a tshirt is acceptable in winter.

But never bedclothes which are explicitly PJs.

Same, so much more comfy.

I know one person that does wear PJs (male) and to be honest, looks ridiculous in them.:yep:

Oh, and don't wear them at uni, for your own sake:nope:
I wear shorts when I go to bed,

PJ's are really bad, I would try and get out of the habit maybe?

I have no problem with a bloke who sleeps in PJs!
Hahaha no, naked all the way! Plus the only person near our age who I know wears them is a 20 year old geek I lived with last year who had lego dr who stuff... I think that says it all...

He got laughed at a lot aswell, uni is the last place you should take PJs!
Dont tell girls u wear them

The only guy I know who wears pyjamas is my uncle. He also lives with his parents and suffers from OCD.

Me neither. I look ridiculous in PJs and most people do, so why should I care if my boyfriend looks a bit silly in them too? I don't love him for what he wears in bed! Though obviously sometimes they're not approproate! :p:
Like this?



Wear them at uni, who gives a crap what anyone else thinks! You like it and thats all that matters, you might get some gentle ribbing but no-one is really too bothered about what you wear to bed!

i think that sums up most guys pretty well.

OP, stop caring what the hell other people think about what you wear when you're sleeping. Just wear what you feel comfortable in.
T-shirt (a old raggedy sonic the hedgehog one i might add, oh yes ladies, dont all come at once) and boxers for me, its far too frickin cold here.

Why do you wear PJs? Because you always have? T-shirt and jogging bottoms will do fine in keeping you warm.
I think it's fine :o:.

For God's sake. If you like wearing white tie to bed, wear white tie. If you like wearing an extra-itchy thong to bed, wear the extra-itchy thong. If you like wearing pyjamas to bed, wear the ****ing pyjamas.

It's not a big deal.

i dont sleep in them i just have them for like days when i dont need to get dressed. i sleep with boxers or naked i just wear the PJ's around the house. The outcome of this vote will decide the fate of my pajamas.

There is no big deal.
All the males in my family wear pyjamas; maybe the people you know just don't happen to? It's a personal choice/preference.

Nothing wrong with wearing pyjamas - if you like wearing them and feel comfortable, then do so. As for uni, so many people say about fire alarms etc going off at night - I'm just guessing here, but if you have to stand about outside (especially in winter) while waiting for the fire brigade etc etc, then it could be a whole lot less embarrassing - and possibly quite a bit warmer - to be wearing your pyjamas. :smile: ( :p: that way, *you* can be the one laughing at the poor sod shivering in his boxers :wink: )

If you like wearing pyjamas, wear pyjamas - sod anyone else who has a problem with it.
