Let's talk laundry...

My DH has never done laundry at our house. He refuses to do laundry. Please tell me if this is a guy thing or it's just my DH. Chat Icon

Who does the laundry at your house?

Re: Let's talk laundry...

We both do it.

If my DH thought the same way yours did, his dirty laundry would sit in a pile until he did it himself.

I do it most of the time, just because I know what needs to be done, and it just doesn't occur to DH. However, if I ask hiim to do it, he does it without a problem. He just needs some prodding. He does the whites on his own once he realizes that he's out of socks...Chat Icon

Re: Let's talk laundry...

DS has never done laundry since I've known him.

We just got a brand new modern washer and dryer because of Sandy and he starred at them "amazed" at how cool they were, yet, refused to use because he was afraid he would break them.

To be fair though, there are plenty of things I have never done around my house either because they are "his" jobs.

Knowing DH, he wouldn't want me to even try either. Chat Icon

He will maybe put clothes in the dryer, after I ask him 20x. That to him is 'doing laundry'.

I always do it. When he does decide he will do it, he screams about 62364892 questions up the stairs so I'd rather just do it myself lol.

I do all the laundry by choice. DH is a very helpful husband, but he is disastrous with laundry. I like my clothes to come out the same size and color they were when they went in, so I do it myself Chat Icon

He will throw it in the washer, put it in the dryer and then throw it in a laundry basket.

Then he comments when I discuss doing laundry about how the machine does it. He doesn't do the hard part - folding and putting away.

it's just one of those things that he feels I should do. Don't know. He has never done laundry in his life.

Re: Let's talk laundry...

we used to each do our own, so yes he has and will do laundry Chat Icon i usually would end up folding it for him though LOL but thats not a huge deal- I do it while i'm watching TV.
BUT now that i'm a SAHM, i've been doing it all just because, obviously, i'm home more and have more time to throw it in or switch stuff around.

Re: Let's talk laundry...

DW does the laundry. I did my own laundry for 4 years of college, and I've done it on occasion in our house, but DW is a SAHM, so she takes care of it while I'm at work. It's not a "him vs her" thing, it just works out that way for us. I have no problem doing laundry if I needed to.

exactly this- we have division of labor- I don't mind my chores and he doesnt mind his... Neither of us would trade for all the money in the world
