Is it tacky to get your wife sleep wear ?

[bearfan454]

Every year I get Mrs bearfan panties and some silk sleeping items and of course those old lady gowns and flanel pajamas. She likes the old lady stuff the best. She says I buy the silk stuff for me and not her. Do you guys think that is tacky ? She gets me boxers and socks too.

[WoodrowFan]

1. no

no, but I think my wife is sexy in flannel!

[cade]

2. too busy trying to get her undressed

the less clothes the better.

[grannylib]

3. Not tacky to get anyone something they like...if she likes it, it's not

tacky to get it for her!
If she is not into the silky stuff maybe back off on that, but sleepwear in itself is not a tacky gift for your spouse/SO

4. no it isn't tacky, it's sweet

It's fine since you know each other so well. It becomes a mine field when the man buys the wrong size -- too big or too small, it can be tricky either way.

Nothing wrong with getting undies for each other to make the stack of gifts under the tree look bigger. A mix of sexy and cozy is a thoughtful gesture to my mind.

Enjoy your holiday!

5. In my experience...

You want to let her pick it out.

Maybe get her a gift certificate and go shopping for it together as sort of an erotic shopping spree.

Otherwise you will be like me and get her the wrong size and she will have to return it anyway.

9. Chicks like returning things

I often buy the wrong size. That's just another present. She then has to go back and shop some more, usually buying something that costs more than the original.

6. What goes good with sleep wear

is anything Teflon. Ironing Board cover, frying pan. Get her comfortable jammies so she can wear them while she's cooking your breakfast in her brand new stick free skillet.

7. well known fact, sorry

"She says I buy the silk stuff for me and not her" this is an indisputable fact. you can buy them, just do what my hubby does, address them appropriately. when he has been a very good boy, i sometimes buy them myself, and give them to him.

[Aristus]

8. Not tacky, no.

Just a waste of time. My wife and I both sleep NEKKID! Completely buck. What do we need sleepwear for? :evilgrin:

[NewGuy]

10. I do this as well

It started years ago when the kids were little and we didn't have much disposable income. I would wait till we got paid after Christmas and then get her jewelry, a nightgown and some perfume for New Years. We usually stayed home and celebrated New Years eve alone and that gave her a chance to open and put on all that I had bought her.

16. THAT'S really sweet.

[BiggJawn]

11. What would be really good would be....

For the guy to open up a box and have it full of frilly sexy things with a note: "Help me in and out of these a little later?"...

That'd make the bone-o-meter go off-scale, I'd bet....

[bearfan454]

12. Damn right it would.

I can't complain lately at all about quality time with her. 4 times in 1 week doesn't usually happen over here. I wonder when the couch will arrive ?

17. A few years ago I was kinda dating a woman who worked at...

a Victoria's Secret store in a mall here. Went to visit her one day on my lunch break, and she showed me a little satin teddy/slip/clingy thing that she really liked.

I told her I'd buy it for her if I got to see her in it.







No sale.


:cry:

[THUNDER HANDS]

13. I think you have to go all the way with this

Either get her a pair of old granny undergarments or get her something out of a XXX porn film. Don't be subtle. In fact, get both. That way at least you're upfront in her wanting to show off her goods and maybe she'll like that it's so naughty that she'll wear it when she thinks you'd like to see it.

Then she can throw on her Golden Girls underwear afterwards. :D

[WoodrowFan]

14. Only if you put another woman's name on the tag (NT)

[catmandu57]

15. No not tacky

I've bought nightgowns for my wife forever it seems like, she picks them out then out comes the wallet.

[MissMillie]

18. not if it's the kind she likes

never tacky to give someone something they'll like.

[stopbush]

19. I usually get her both an comfortable old lady thing that she'll

actually wear and something sexy to put in the drawer.

We're a little short on money this year so I couldn't afford the panties with a crotch...

[bearfan454]

20. Good one.

Reminds me of the joke I told recently.

[bearfan454]

21. Kick for the pm crowd

Is it or is it not tacky ?

22. Check out this song: "I bought a nightgown for my vife. . ."

". . . a black one trimmed in red. I didn't know her size and so, she gets a carpet sveeper instead!"
"I Yust Go Nuts At Christmas," by the immortal Yorgi Yorgensson. Check it out online, download it, and you have a great present.

[BiggJawn]

23. Oh! Jorge Jorgenson! i haven't heard him in YEARS!

The afore mentioned "I chust go NUTZ at Krees-miss"
and "Kerkies Pies an' cakes" (NOT "Kake"!)

and "Hooooooo Trew De Hally-butt on da Poooooooooop Deck?"

[Faygo Kid]

24. Here's the full lyrics: "I Yust Go Nuts At Christmas"

Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas,
On that yolly holiday,
I’ll go in the red, like a knucklehead
Cause I squander all my pay.
Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas,
Shopping sure drives me berserk,
On the day before, I rush in da store,
Like a nervous nelly yerk.
I look at nightgowns for my vife,
Dose black ones trimmed in red.
But, I won’t know her size,
And so, she'll get a carpet sweeper instead.
Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas
Ven each kid hangs up his sock,
Its a time for kids, to flip der lids,
While der papa goes in hock.

(speaking - background music only)
On da night before Christmas.
Its still in the house,
My family is sleeping,
I’m quiet like a mouse.
I look at my vatch, and midnite is near,
I tink I’ll sneak out, For a cold glass of beer.
Down at the corner, the crowd is so merry,
I end up by drinking about twelve Tom & Yerry,
I get to bed late, and yee vhise how I’m sleeping,
Ven on to my bed, dose darn kids, day come leaping.
Day sit on my face, and day yump on my belly,
And I’m quivering all over, like a bowl full of yelly,
Day scream Merry Christmas, and my poor vife and me,
Ve stumble down stairs, and she lights off da tree.
My head is exploding, my mouth tastes like a pickle,
I step on a skate, and fall on a tricycle.
Yust befor Christmas dinner, I relax to a point,
Den relatives start svarming, all over da yoint.
On Christmas, I hug and I kiss my vifes mother,
Da rest of da year, ve don’t speak to each other.
After dinner, my aunt, and my vifes uncle Louie,
Get into a arguement; dere both awful screwy.
Den all of my vifes family, say Louie is right,
And my goofy relations, day yoin in da fight.
Back in da corner, da radio is playing,
And over da racket, Gabriel Heater is saying,
Peace on earth everybody, and good vill toward men
and yust at dat moment, someone slugs uncle Ben.
Dey all run outside vhooping for da neighbors will hear,
Ohhhh, I’m so glad Merry Christmas,
Comes yust once a year.

(back to music)
Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas,
But I still have lots of fun,
Yust da same as you, I enyoy it too,
MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE.
