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.

    Cis is just the opposite of trans.

    Cishet is the term you’re thinking of for that.

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?

    Mites just appreciate when you make the bed for them.
    
    I’d personally be more inclined to get rid of the mites rather than make them slightly uncomfortable, but each to their own.

    Sure. However, I think it’s more about sustaining an environment where house dust mites (finally found the real term) don’t want to be. Otherwise they’ll show up/thrive. But in my mind, the best solution should be to change sheets with enough frequency, and make sure the house isn’t so dusty. That way they have no food and are swept away often enough by the washer/vacuum not to get a footing.
