Guys might sleep with their hands in their pants primarily to regulate temperature and for comfort.
Here's a breakdown of the reasons:
Temperature Regulation
- The genital area is sensitive to temperature changes.
- Men may adjust their hands or genitals to regulate temperature, as explained by Dr. Ashrafi.
- It could be due to feeling too hot or too cold in that area, which in turn can cause further discomfort. (Dr. Ashrafi, 19-Oct-2023)
Comfort and Security
- Comfort: For some men, it's simply a comfortable position. The warmth and enclosed feeling can be soothing.
- Security: It can provide a sense of security and protection.
Other Possible Reasons
- Habit.
- Anxiety or stress relief.
In conclusion, sleeping with hands in pants is usually about temperature regulation and comfort.
