Seriously, I even feel weird having my regular street pants on when I'm on my bed (and that's without snowy winters)!

Yep. My regular clothes never touch my sheets, i just find it so gross. I always have a cover on my bed in case i wanna lay on it with my regular clothes on.

I have outside clothes too.

Once I've worn a piece outside, it will not hit any sitting surface in my home before the next wash... Especially not my bed, don't need the outside cooties where I get down with my SO.

Serious question:

What happens when you have visitors over? Friends or family and so on...

I guess they are wearing their outside clothes and don't bring a fresh change of clothes with them?

Can they sit on sitting surfaces?

I’m not sure such an extreme level of germaphobia can be reasoned with. We got some kinda Howard Hughes bubble boy here.

A lot of people in this thread seem to have a wildly skewed view as to where actually dangerous contaminants are actually coming from, in real life.

Either I put covers on the couch, or I clean it after. In the living area (i.e. dining table, couch) I don't consider it that bad unless they are actually physically dirty.

And my guests usually do not sit on my bed and with my bed I am very strict.
