I don't use any medium when I paint either but then most of my paintings are done with only one to four layers, and painted thinly. The key is that old rule of fat over lean: just be sure you don't use medium in lower layers and then put something with no medium over it. And of course, thin paint always holds up over time better than thick layers. It's less likely to crack.
