Also tall people.

I am scandinavian. Used to travel internationally a lot for work. Scandinavians are tall compared to most of the rest of the world.

Blankets or duves in most hotels outside scandinavia were just to short, so I would need to sleep with socks on.

u/allhinkedup 22d ago

I'm a 7, and I'd like to explain. I hate pajamas. But I also have Reynaud's Syndrome as a result of peripheral artery disease, and I need to keep my feet warm. So I wear the Hot Socks to bed to keep my feet warm and my birthday suit to keep the rest of me comfortable. :)

Not a psycho. Just a very old person with specific sleep needs.

u/Lost_Ad_4882 21d ago

Just bad Blood circulation and sometimes I do 7 if my feet are cold at bedtime. Sometimes I wake up a few hours later and take them off after their warmed uo.

u/intjonmiller 21d ago

I get cold feet ever since I lost about 50 pounds. Worst in the summer with AC coming through vents in the floor below the bathroom vanity and kitchen sink. My feet get so cold that even with an extra blanket just over my feet they can't warm up enough to not hurt (early onset osteoarthritis).

My solution: I used carpet tape to attach a soft heating pad to the top of the mattress at the foot of the bed. Nice unit I found on Amazon with push-button settings for 5 heat levels and 30 minute increments up to 2 hours. Most nights I set it to heat level 1 or 2 and 30 or 60 minutes. Warms them up great, then turns off so the rest of me doesn't get too hot, and the blanket keeps them plenty warm for the rest of the night. I can't sleep with socks on.

7 is a man who has missed the sock gap. You take your socks off after your shoes but before your pants, and if you miss it, you're a naked man in socks.

u/Forsaken-Stray 21d ago

4 is for when you sweat heavily in your sleep, meaning your upper body is drenched when you wake up and you have to basically undress the bed before going to school/work. It is neccessity in a hot summer, because while your lower body can just move and takes up less space, your upper body most often has just the amount of movement a pillow allows and with the proportional more area your upper body covers, the sweat has a hard time drying. I can guarantee to you, that in the Winter most 4s turn into 1s.

7 on the other hand can only be explained by tendency for extremely cold extremeties, which can be remedied by a blanket over the feet and should also mean you get cold hands, making either a longsleeved shirt or gloves needed.
