Every other week. That's nasty 4 times a year wtf.

 

[Maoyama]

Yeah, that sounds about right for me... I know the last time I changed my sheets was around Valentines day, so its going on 3 months at this point.

Also, not single, but around valentines I started dating my current GF and I wanted to figure out how she felt about sleeping in the same sheets we had sex on so I washed them to be nice. Turns out neither of use give a fuck about any of that and we are both too lazy to even care about it

 

[dity]

I don't even know what happened to my bedsheets. Help.

 

[hugocésar]

Weekly for me. I would probably only do it two or three times a month if I owned more than a single set of sheets.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Anyone not sleep under the comforter? I just usually sleep on top of the comforter, but take half of it and cover myself. Now during winter, I sleep under the comforter for warmth.

 

[Funky Papa]

"It's a seasonal thing, I guess"

I can't believe some ripe ass bros are sleeping through the entire summer using the same set of sweaty, splooge stained sheets.

I don't even know what happened to my bedsheets. Help.

Going by the hygienic standards shown by some in this thread, they probably crumbled and turned to dust.

I sleep over the comforter and with a blanket.

Shower before bed. Sleep with pajamas. How dirty are those sheets possibly getting?

I need a funky papa to knit me some new ones

You're rolling around under some blankets in PJs for 5-8 hours a night, it gets pretty dirty. It's not like wearing PJs and taking a shower makes bedsheets magically immune to the accumulated grease, sweat, and dead skin of an entire season of sleep.

Shits gross.

 

[Einchy]

I don't wash my sheets because I'm going for that "someone died on this bed and wasn't found for months' aesthetic.

 

[Drahcir]

I'm on par. Haven't changed my sheets yet this year. Of course no one's ever been on it except me and I never get in bed unless I've showered and ready to sleep. So if anything, it's just dusty.

 

[Endgegner]

Dat feel of taking a shower and sleeping on fresh sheets, feels so nice on your skin.

 

[Abstrusity]

I'm always had a very bad nightmare problem and could never keep sheets on my bed until arounda year ago, and I've washed my sheets, now that they're actually staying on my bed, about 10 times since. Aaaalmost once a month since I moved in with my girlfriend.

 

[LosDaddie]

Really only matters if you're able to get a women into the bed.

So not many have to worry about it 😉

 

[Zyae]

We wash them after every "sheet-changing" event.

you must not have those events very often

 

[SeanC]

I have three sets of sheets, change them out every two weeks.

If I didn't have to go to a laundromat and had machines in my building or even better my unit, I'd do it every week.

 

[Fudgepuppy]

Once every three weeks or something.

 

[GamerJM]

Sounds about right for me >_>. Keep in mind I don't have any friends so no one ever sees my bed. My mom tells me I should wash them once a month.

 

[Paltheos]

Once a week, guys? That's way too much work. I probably average... once a month? Sometimes a little longer. Definitely not 3+ months though. After too long the sheets start making me itchy (and they lose their fluffiness).

 

[NeonBlack]

shit I don't even have pillowcases.

Banned

You walked a thin line.

 

[Weetrick]

About 3 times a month here. Some of you guys are denying yourselves the pleasure of a freshly made bed with clean sheets!

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Once a month

Roughly the same (More so in the summer). 4 times a year is disgusting.

 

[Zyae]

How dirty are you people that you need to wash your sheets once a week?

 

[CosmicQueso]

How dirty are you people that you need to wash your sheets once a week?

How dirty are the people that don't?

 

[TheOohChild]

That is repulsive. I notice a little bit of discoloring on my sheets when I change them weekly. These guys must have dude-shaped grease stains on their sheets.

 

[womfalcs3]

This thread has been the source of a lot of laughter. Thank you.

 

[frontovik]

Very fascinating and somewhat repulsive subject; I'd like to know more.

Bed sheets should be washed every week at least in my opinion.

 

[Pryce]

Twice a week.

 

[marrec]

Some dude who doesn't change his sheets but once a baseball season:

"Nah bro, I just don't sweat, YOU'RE the gross one!"

 

[dity]

When it comes to gaf I'm imagining some of the users here going "ew, yuck, I wash them once a week" as they pat their body down with baby wipes while wondering how they keep getting brown stains on their underwear.

This place is amaze.

 

[RichyMtl]

Every 2 weeks when I'm alone and weekly when my bf's in town.

 

[br3wnor]

It's disgusting but in College and a few years after I don't even remember washing my sheets more than a few times a YEAR. They never smelled, girls didn't notice and I never got a disease from it so looks like I made it.

Wut

 

[dity]

Wut

There's been some great hygiene threads.

 

[Weetrick]

How dirty are you people that you need to wash your sheets once a week?

People that sweat at night. People that have pets on the bed. People that have sex. People that just like the feeing of clean sheets.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Every two weeks on the regular, or after every adult sleepover. I shudder at the thought of people who don't wash after the latter.

 

[Volimar]

I switch them out like every 4-6 weeks and then wash the old ones.

I always forget about sheets *shrug*

Same here.

Plus it's always a hassle, but that fresh sheet feeling is bliss tho.

 

[Alucrid]

crust n' grime

 

[Icanplaythat]

How is this possible? Do these people not secrete bodily fluids during sex?

 

[Rynocirator]

I'm guilty of this. I'm pretty sure I do it less than 4. Like 2 or 3

 

[Dennis]

How is this possible? Do these people not secrete bodily fluids during sex?

Sex? Do you know where you are?

 

[marrec]

There's been some great hygiene threads.

There's definitely some crazy ass Venn-Diagrams to be made based on Hygiene alone.

Heh yeah...this is true. I am always worried about reading some of the responses in them.

I've learnt that brown undies are required, and showers don't always need water.

I think there's some other things I've blocked out.

Once a week still seems excessive.

*someone out there somewhere on GAF*

REGULARLY?

Once a week still seems excessive.

You can probably get away with twice a month at most, but once a week is easy because it's:

Sunday - Replace week old sheets with fresh sheet from the linen closet.

Monday - Wash load of laundry including soiled sheets. Put fresh sheet on the bottom of the sheet pile in linen closet.

Ad infinitum

Just an easy habit to get into. Plus, Sunday is clean sheet day!

 

[Maoyama]

Meh, just wipe down anything that's specially sticky or wet before going to bed and repeat... Bodily fluids are not that gross to some people

 

[Jeffolation]

I wash all my bath towels every every week and a half, I'll strip and wash my bed sheets with them.
