I will sit naked on the furniture after I have taken a shower. If I used the restroom at any point during the day, I will sit on a towel to be safe.

I wanted to add to the comment Gnarlyoldman said about using gray water. Gray water recycling and rain water capture are passions of mine. I would recommend to anyone who is inspired to pursue this, please check your local building codes. Some areas don't allow the water from the kitchen sink to be used as gray water due to all the food material. This is the case in California.

Amen on conserving water in drought-stricken California. I am thinking of planting cactus everywhere in my garden, and exchanging my car for a camel.

Washing towels takes water. I do think about using paper towels to sit on. Maybe the "quicker-picker upper" would suffice. Maybe I'll just lie on the carpet and let it go at that.

One thing that is obvious to me is that nudists forget which side of the towel they sat on when they go to use that towel again, after they've been walking around, and have taken their towel with them. Makes you wonder if a towel is the answer. Maybe you should spray the sat-on area with a disinfectant, if at a nudist resort.

At least California has some code about gray water. When I built my home I found that our code did not have any provision for gray water at all and the local building code enforcement officials didn't want to deal with it. I ended up installing a shower outside on my lawn so at least the shower water goes to the lawn in summer.

I hear you about the kitchen water. Some people put a lot of food scraps down their drain. The material I read about gray water systems say that pumps and outlets tend to clog up with hair and other messy things. More design support needs to be provided by the plumbing industry.

Freezing would be another problem for gray water distribution in winter here. That's probably not a problem in much of California. If gray water distribution was supported we could have a diversion valve to turn when the weather turned cold. Shut it off in fall while blowing out the sprinkler pipes.

Washing towels to sit on every day would create a lot more laundry over time and waste a lot of water, especially in dry places like California. And as mentioned, if the towel was needed, turning it over next time would be a problem. Just washing my back side makes more sense to me. I like feeling clean.

i use those nice comfy $5. blankets you get at big box stores and fold them over lengthwise to fit the sofa and depending on weather may change out after a few day and all get washed on wash days. towels are ok but these are alot softer.

We sit on our furniture naked. When we go to the resort we sit on towels. Have not hosted or been to any nude house parties yet but would either put out or bring an extra towel. Of coarse we vaccume our furniture regularly.

I think the point being made is that ... we all do different things in our lives that we most times ... live nude. There really isn't a right way or wrong way of how you live your nudist life, in your own home. The only time there are any rules or standards of etiquette or behavior is when we are around other nudists and then there needs to be a common ground area and respect for one another.

There are certain times when we've been naked and sat on our own furniture. It's not a big deal, it's our furniture but ... we've just been in the habit of sitting on towels that that is just the way we do it ... most of the time. If you'd rather not, in your own home, that's perfectly fine. There is no hard, fast rule that that's the way it should be.

We probably all have a favorite seat in our home. In our sectional, mine is the most broken in spot on this piece of furniture. I never paid much attention to it and I tend to sit there and watch TV with my wife after our evening showers, but every time we have a gathering, like we did for Super Bowl Sunday, my spot was always taken up by one of our female friends.

I was asked how come I didn't sit and watch the game. I replied that I didn't care for who was playing and that every time I thought about it, someone was in my spot! Two of our female friends said, "you know why that is, don't you?" I said, "cuz it's the best seat in the house?" They both said, "no, it smells of your cologne! Best smelling spot in the house unless we're standing close to you!" :D

Can't take all the credit. My wife changed up my brand. It must be one they all like! ;)

LOL

OK FP...Do a public service for us guys on what cologne you are using, but put something in about sitting on a towel as well so that we stay on topic.

Look at the posts I've posted. There's plenty there about what I/we do with regards to towels and this topic.

I'm almost always on topic and only go off for a bit of humor. How much can one have to say or need to say about using or not using towels on furniture at home?

Or ... maybe you didn't care for my dig about who played in the Super Bowl!

...and my wife and lady friends seem to like Perry Ellis. That's what my wife and daughters have me wearing now.
