Why do the Japanese use these weird half-blankets? I mean, I always sleep with my feet sticking out from the blankets, but I feel like there are times when a full blanket would be useful. Like in the winter.

Is this just a summer thing? What's going on.

>> No.9873426

That's the only part of my body that I don't want to overheat, since my balls would get saggy and then its uncomfortable. Wouldn't you rather just have one on your feet and shoulders?

I don't use a blanket at all when I sleep... it's thermally comfortable in my house 24/7. I'll just turn the heat up if it's cold at night.

This means you're insecure. Did one of your parents die or go away?

>> No.9873437

If they just sleep closer they could share the blankets.

Same, even in summer. I just can't get comfortable otherwise.

And there's a silly Japanese myth about a cold stomach leading to a cold, so they cover their bellies during the summer.

Miscellaneous question, as long as you're using an Evangelion screenshot: why did Shinji turn into a total wimp and not kiss Asuka after she murmured something in her sleep about her mother?

I don't get it. That would make me wanna kiss her more, since she obviously needed someone to be with her.

I don't care if my chest is covered, but my feet get so unbearably cold if they aren't covered, even in summer, but I can't wear socks, because I'll fidget with them and take them off.

Dunno about the japanese. Maybe their feet are totally numb from wearing geta and sitting suiza all day. Except this isn't the meiji era...

He wasn't being considerate, just horny. Hearing her talk about her mother made him feel some sympathy for her as a human being, making it harder to see her as a sex object he could start groping without consent

Even on hot summer nights I have to have everything below my shoulders covered with some sort of blanket. It's just a comfort thing, it's hard to go to sleep if I don't feel secure.

It's actually very comforting to sleep with someone else in the room. I wish I could always have someone to sleep with, although actual skin-on-skin contact is uncomfortable for sleep as their heartbeat can be felt through their veins and whatnot and I find the rhythm of someone else's pulse to be disturbing.

I use two blankets. One for my body and the other to wrap around my eyes in a comfortable way. Sometimes my eyelids would slightly open for some reason and it disturbs me.
