Sheets are required when you sleep on a bed or a couch. You don't want to keep having to clean your actual bed or couch so the sheet is a easy way to quickly keep your sleeping area clean. It's not there to bug you or not for your mom to have the bed look pretty.
I'm saying this because it really grosses me out and someone that just moved into our house but has not set up his bed is sleeping on my futon which is in his room since I haven't moved all my stuff out. I wasn't even asked if he could use the futon but he is using it anyway for sleeping in every night. But he has not brought his own sheets or asked for mine and I just noticed that today. He also used my comforter without the comforter cover since I was just storing it under the bed for a couple days too. So now I have to make it uncomfortable and tell him to use a sheet but seriously he should already know that.
So now, I'm going to have an unclean futon and unclean comforter (not visibly dirt but in my mind). How fair is that.
So please, if you have anyone sleeping over at your place please offer them a sheet. And if someone offers you a sheet, use it!

futon - a couch that folds out into a bed.

not if it builds up over time.
i'm not that clean obsessed but some things just gross me out, and not using sheets on a bed is gross.
and what if not just sweat get's on. like snots or other body fluids.

Ahhh! "Futon" is the girls' name for it; us blokes call it "bed-couch", "couch-bed" or "foldy bed thing".

Wait, even this is different in north america?
THIS is a futon here in Brazil... and that thing you showed us is a couch-bed aswell Now you're going to tell me you guys don't use kilometers to measure speed, celsius to measure temperature and you put the day between the month and the year when writing dates? j/k, but these things are illogical to us outside north america.

There is nothing like a few love stains to give a piece of furniture some real character.
