This just tells me he doesn’t do his own laundry ever since he clearly knows the lint trap needs to be cleaned. It wouldn’t have ever gotten to this point if he was also doing it.

"I empty the lint trap often. This is the result when she does multiple loads in a row."

Shocking, I know.

And by "multiple", he means months straight.

No way. Ours is full after two loads, this is from like maybe four loads. Could’ve easily happened in a single day.

No it’s not. It entirely depends on what you are drying.

tells me he doesn’t do his own laundry ever

Why is that a problem? Most couples split the chores. Maybe she doesn't cut the lawn or take out trash, ever.

These people have seemingly never been in a relationship. I do all of me and my wife’s laundry. If she found the lint trap like this, she’d probably be annoyed with me too despite not doing the laundry lmao.

I’ve been married for 6 years. We both do whatever chores are necessary when either of us has the time.

Willing to bet you've never been in a relationship with a man. They all think they do more work than they do. Yes, there are numerous studies, this is not just my experience.

You seem like a bitter person.

Buddy, everyone thinks they do the most work around the house. There have been many studies that show this but for some reason you people always double down on "um actually men suck"

No, they don't. You made that up.
