Firm

[GaryandSherry]

You people haven't obviously been in the boy scouts or military. I do agree that my SO's bed was like a board, but why complain when I had the most beautiful woman in the world laying next to me? I didn't have that being in the boy scouts or military. As for her preference? She really doesn't care. I think she feels the same as I do. We can sleep anywhere, as long as we can lay close to each other.

I agree!

They should try sleeping in a rice paddie durning a monsoon.

A board feels like heaven compared to that!

I don't care where I sleep as long as she in laying next to me.

Well, sure, but the point was just the difference in culture. Enough beds that I slept in were firm enough that I assumed it was part of Chinese culture to sleep on extremely hard beds. The responses seem to have shown that there are exceptions, but not maybe. It's been a good talk.

Chinese beds appear to be a plywood plank with about 1 inch of padding and a sheet on top of that.  This is based on my experiences on about 15 different beds over time, in both the north and south.

The solution is a Tempurpedic. They start out firm, but conform to your body. So they soften up for my 6' 230# frame, but my wife at 5'3" 108# its almost flat and very firm. She doesn't sink into it too much. She likes it very much. "not too soft" Also she seems not to snore when she is on it, which is priceless to me

 

Edit - They must not be ill-boding! Mine is new and bodes well. The old one is also a tempurpedic, and goes in the paper next week if I have time, but I won't mention it is ill-boding.

Ah Merc, you have finally surfaced for air. Enough of the 'Ill boding mattress'. It is now time to report in.

 

How did everything go?

[mercator]

:D

 

Any questions?

Ever watch Paint Your Wagon when Clint Eastwood asked Lee Marvin the day after "How's married life" and never cracked a smile? Gee Dennis , but way to go. Hey Merc glad nothing is ill-boding now.
