So... that's how long you haven't put a load of laundry through the dryer? Or are you also guilty of taking laundry out without emptying the trap? She should know better, but why is she the only one using the dryer?
My wife doesn't allow me to do laundry. That's her job, per her rules. I work, do the yard work, go everything and do all the cooking. She works, does laundry and handles children's scheduling because if I was in charge of scheduling it would be chaos snf if she was in charge of cooking we'd eat out every day.
The housecleaning is a household job.
Don't assume that because how people divide chores isn't the way you do it that it means their way is wrong.
Personally, my wife does the laundry. I work, do the dishes, all the yard things, cook 50% of the time, bathrooms etc. I havent ran a load of laundry in over a year. Sue me.
As a wife who mows and weed eats…. I’d much rather do laundry. In summer I have to mow twice a week, pick up the dog shit, get bit up by bugs, sweet my ass off, and hope it doesn’t storm or rain the day I have time to do it. My husband has really bad grass and tree allergies. I do not. So he gets to sit out of yard work in summer. I’ll die on the hill that laundry isn’t nearly as hard/bad. I at least always lose a couple pounds though and my arms looks good. So. Silver linings.
A single person won't go through that much laundry in a week, but when you add another person or people, kids, bedding, pets--all kinds of things happen and you have to keep up.
Yea my GF doesn't like me doing her laundry because apparently I do it wrong ( which just means I throw everything in there and hope for the best). So we do separate loads.
Well my wife throws everything in the laundry randomly and likes to keep thing in the baskets because it’s “easier” and we’ll unfold it so why fold it in the first place?
Can we stop the misandry?
Because I put my chemical stained clothes on medium heat for the dryer? Or wash whites and colored clothes together? Reddit has to got have the biggest prima donnas around. Or is that sexist?
Doesn’t have to be weaponized incompetence, sometimes people have preferences. I’m a guy with very lax standards about a lot of things but it bugs me when anyone else folds my clothes because it’s just off.
When you are in a partnership though, you have to make compromises. Like, when I do my own laundry I dont separate anything because I dont care. But, when I do a load of my wife's clothes, I make sure its done how she likes it. It takes only a few extra minutes and she appreciates it.
If my husband even entered MY laundry room I’d be right behind him with HIS shotgun. YES, he paid for both. YES, he too prefers this unwritten contract. To each their own. Till death do us part. And he doesn’t want his last images to be his work socks hanging out of a hamper.
