For those of you who are almost always nude, how do you handle washing your clothes?
Combine them with sheets and towels?
Wait a long time until you have a load of just clothe?

    Someone on another board posted that he had installed full body dryers so that the need to wash towels was greatly reduced also, leaving him with only a minimal amount of clothing and towels so the laundry consisted primarily of sheets.
    Has anyone else done that?

    My wife actually splits the laundry into 6 loads.
    Knit
    Permanent press
    Jean's, t shirts, athletic wear
    Night wear and underwear (all hers )
    Towels
    Sheets
    Then she comments on how small the loads are.
    Do any of you know of someone who does something similar?

    I have to be dressed for some of the time because my nude-phobic son lives with me. I do 2 washdays each week for his and my clothes. The first wash each time includes my jeans - so they get washed twice a week. It matters as I never wear underwear. And one laundry day includes his bedding, the other includes mine

It works until something that sheds is attracted to a fuzzy or the leg of a pair of pants gets tangled in a sheet while drying. I had a clothes line. No need for it now.

    Laundry is my wife's obsession. Everything goes into the washer with no separation by color or fabric type. That means t-shirts and underwear are washed with the jeans among other things.

    I have three loads: White, not-white, and towels (mostly due to the weight).

I have a jumbo sized washer and dryer, so quite a bit fits in. The only time something gets done alone is the thick bed quilt. Now that winter is upon us, there will be far fewer beach towel loads, and the regular towels will just get thrown in with the regular load. John aka cobeachbum

My wife says that the heavier sheets and (her) nightwear make it too much to put in one load. She does spend a lot of time in nightwear at home so she probably has more of it to wash than most people who wear it. In fact one of my lines when I was starting to be nude at home was that if she was in her night wear I might as well be in mine. The difference is that she wears pajamas and my "nightwear" is my wedding ring and nothing else.

    When i was single I had enough clothing and such to wash three different full loads, whites, permanent press, and fuzzies. Since retiring I no longer have permanent press. Fuzzies were towels, socks, and colors. My wife is a bit OCD with the laundry and washes most things way more often than I would, but puts it all in one load. I'd say that we do three to four loads per week now. Most loads will have one to three pair of underwear, some socks, and a couple of tee shirts that are mine. The washer has more capacity than the dryer so we do separate into two loads primarily by fabric type. Heavy like towels, jeans, and jackets, and everything else.

    My wife got me a heavy bathrobe. Ahhh
    Rest of the time pretty much naked. So its just towels and sheets. Oh I am retired now, which the need for work clothes is almost gone. When friends come over for cards I can be naked. So just a sitting towel and thats it. I think she does the laundry once a week.
    We are football fans so we are wearing those team cloths. After the final game the clothes go into the laundry.

    I would rather wear regular clothes than a bathrobe. In fact when I started sleeping nude, I kept one pair of heavy pajamas for chilly mornings. I have towels for my favorite football and baseball teams and USA Olympics so I can show my team spirit without getting dressed. PS Since your need for work clothes is almost gone, have you gotten rid of most of them?

    There is two types of laundry for us towels and other items and in the summer the other is mainly bedding to the lack of cloths to wash and, then it is down to if I am working from home or out and about. In winter there are more/more bulky cloths to keep warm.

    This is a great question.

    I do about one tub per week and combine bedding, towels, and sheets in one with what few clothes I may use when out and about. If I have enough, I do a separate permanent press load with just clothes. And for my professional attire, I dry clean, so no worries there.

    If I'm home all week, then I may even skip a week and not do any clothes or any laundry. I even reuse towels to not have to fool with it.

    I almost never wash clothing. I have bath towels, kitchen towels, and bed sheets. When I do wear clothing it's just a t-shirt and shorts and they're only on while I'm shopping or at an appointment or the like. Eventually, however, they do need to be washed. I typically put them in the washer by themselves and run a very short cycle. I have a high efficiency front-loader. It only uses as much water as is required to actually wash the clothes. So, it's no big deal just washing an item or two.
