Lying on the leather couch also felt like I was curled up with a guy in a leather jacket (NTTAWWT). It was all too weird. Chicks simply don't dig leather.

Late to this thread, but I was the leather sofa advocate in our recent move (to a new apartment with an extra bedroom for baby). It's pretty traditional, not
moderne so as to avoid the coke dealer thing, which was Trepidation Dad's concern. It does wipe off like a dream - milk, barf, peas, the mini reese's peanut butter cup leftover from the "dinner" we scraped together upon realizing that neither of us had the energy to go either to the store or the ATM and which I sat on and melted into a smudge of mush at 4 am while feeding the bairn in the dark.
I also recommend highly-patterned Persian rugs if you don't want entirely bare wood floors. If you get nice ones, the wool is fairly high quality and therefore cleans up well, and the pattern hides your sins if it doesn't.
Oh, and I will not tell you guys if I get into a threesome. Sorry.
