I keep shorts next to my bed, I'd try to grab them as I hop out but if that didn't work out I'm okay going nude. I'm not going to constrict myself on the miniscule chance of an emergency, that's living in fear.

Basketball shorts are my normal attire. I've also been a caregiver for many years for my mom, and I can assure you, in an urgent situation, I can have the shorts on before I stand. I'm a pro at wake up, reach down and grab, and slide my legs into them as I'm standing. It literally takes no more time for me than it would to walk out of my room naked. They sit directly on top of my flip flops that I also slide into as I stand up. Shirts take more time, but that's less important for me as a guy (still pretty important as a fat guy that hates being shirtless beyond what I can even explain).

That said, not everyone is such a seasoned professional. Robe is probably the better call. I'd wear a robe more often if I could find one that wasn't so hot, I can only handle them in deepest of winter

How often has this happend to you?

Never understood naked sleepers

I now imagine people training wake up.

It's not totally unheard of. Firefighters do it. I imagine back in the day when doctors lived at hospitals (does this still happen?) they did it, too. People who do live in caregiving often practice waking up routines in case of emergency.

Robe, or just going naked out the door. Probably naked since my priority first is getting my partner and animals out. In this scenario, lacking clothes seems like a pretty minor thing.

It's sterile and I like the taste.

I need to remove more than my clothing to be naked.

Here's why: I fainted once in the hospital, while I was drying off after a shower, and when I woke up I was surrounded by cute nurses I'd been flirting with all month. They were kind enough to give me a towel for dignity.

This is not the most embarrassing thing to happen to me in this hospital, but this was the first big one.

I know where my towel is.

Yeah, realistically, what household doesn't have a few extra blankets lying around? If I awake to my neighbor's house on fire, and them standing naked in the yard, the least I can do is hand them a blanket to wrap themselves in. And that's one of the few situations where being completely naked in public is perfectly socially acceptable.

Twice but I live in firesville

In the summer I may as well catch on fire if I sleep in clothes. A fire preventing me from getting dressed is just a good excuse to not have to wear them outside for once. In winter when I'm happy to wear clothes I wear them in bed too.

Usually pants are very close to my bed, even if I evacuated nude, taking some basic clothing with me wouldn’t be a big deal, I also wear pants in no time. Countless times I woke to like parcel delivery and had to dress up quickly, it’s not a big deal
