Adult Pajamas

I still call my pajamas my "jammies."  Does that make me any less of an adult?  No.  Does wearing an unisex tshirt to bed make me less of a woman?  Maybe?  Is this the age in my life in which I am supposed to start wearing little teddies to sleep in?  Don't get me wrong - I think little cotton or silk dresses are actually pretty cute, but unisex tshirts are most often free.  Is someone giving away free jammy dresses?  No one I know.

IS THERE A MORE OFFICIAL NAME FOR THIS? Clearly, I'm not adult enough to even know what they are called.  I googled it.  It's a chemise.  Not a jammy dress.

When I looked it up on wikipedia, here's a photo that popped up.

A fashionable young man?  Well, that's not all that different from the off the shoulder sweatshirt I often wear to bed.
I spend enough money on clothing, do I really want to add cute, feminine jammies to that budget?  No.  Well, when I describe them as "cute and feminine," yes.  When I wake up, will I then have to switch into an unisex tshirt in order to cross my living room to get to my bathroom? Yes.
