I make the bed, at least my side of it, every day. If I don’t, my wife, along with the cats and dog, won’t give me any covers when I get in.

I must admit, I never make the bed when my wife is out of town.

I never understood sleeping in the same bed as a dog. Feels so filthy. Even a cat, bro. (Lived with cats for 22 years before moving from parent.)

I just put out a dog blanket for the dog to lay on top of. That way my sheets stay undogged. As a bonus she knows if that blanket isn’t laid out she’s not welcome on the bed and if it is she can come up if she wants.

That’s adorable. Now I understand better. I hope most people do what you do.

Am gay. I don’t make the bed unless I expect visits. Does it make me feel fricking good to see a tidy bed and house? Yes. Will I do it every day? Absolutely not.

Just like us cis folk might feel as well. Am cis male, feel the same way, sorry of. In fact, I might even make the bed more often when my wife isn’t around because she keeps telling me that living things like a tidy bed more just after you get up out of it, so wait a while until making it. But if I wait, it never gets done. I’ll do it immediately if she isn’t around.

FYI, gay men can be cis too, I guess you meant straight. Cis means you feel like the sex you physically have, it has nothing to do with sexual preference.

Ah okay. Gosh, I’ve had the wrong idea about that. I thought it was what you describe plus being straight. My mistake, thank you so much for the correction.

I’m confused.

Couldn’t find the word when writing that comment, but I was referring to mites. Mites like a warm, made bed. But if you leave everything a bit rustled up while the bed cools off after you’ve left it, they don’t get too comfortable. Then you can make the bed after it has cooled. I’m guessing they like both the warmth, as well as the easier navigation of a made bed?

I guess that destroys that theory.
