Honestly can't believe I'm even asking this

[nahnonever]

My partner has skid marks in every fucking pair of pants he wears. How do I wash them without spreading germs everywhere?

Why on earth are you inspecting the inside of his pants?!

That's such a thick comment.
You honestly have to ask that?

Think i would put them in a bucket of milton and hot water outside in the garden, and keep adding to them until you have a pile to wash in the machine on 60 degrees. He ll feel embarrassed when people ask what's in the bucket! 😂

This is a LTB if ever there was one. Alternatively, if there's something about him that magically makes up for his refusal to wipe his own arse like a grown up, I'd refuse to do his washing and ban him from the bed until he could prove that he'd learned the basic skill that most of us learned as toddlers.

I'd wash his undies separately, with plenty of bleach, on a 90 degree wash cycle.

Then, when he wants to know why all his thundercrackers have fallen apart, you explain to him they were a health hazard and the wise women of mumsnet had advised that they needed to be boil washed in bleach.

Then tell him that he can choose between paying to have a Japanese style toilet with built in bum shower, like this www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/metro-smart-toilet-with-bidet-wash-function-heated-seat-dryer installed, or or making his own arrangements to send his shitty undies out to be professionally laundered.

After he masters the controls of the magic bog, his nether regions will be cleaned regularly, and you will both be laughing come the next Great Bog Roll shortage.

Do you actually fancy this guy?

If I leave them for him to do they might accumulate and then I have a heap of shitty pants in the house. Grosse

Indeed. What part of him is attractive

I’d just collect them up and throw them out and when he runs out of pants tell him, because he can’t wipe his arse properly you’ve thrown all his pants out.

Yuck.

Stop washing all his clothes just in case. Tell him the nasty surprises were making you nauseous.

I would leave.

However if for any reason I couldn’t, I’d just bin them and tell him why.

You have sex with a guy who gas a shitty arse?
Omg, vom.

Apparently this is how some guys remember how to put on their underwear: yellow to the front and brown to the back.

Is he disabled or sick?

Cannot imagine why else a grown woman would be washing a grown man's pants.

Have you low self esteem?

@totallyfuckedupfamily

Er NOT WASH MENS PANTS WHY THE ACTUAL FUCK WOULD THIS BE THEIR JOB?

Mumsnet has gone insane again.

Yeech

Cannot imagine why else a grown woman would be washing a grown man's pants.

Well I wash DH's because it would be really stupid of me to leave them in the washing basket when I put a load in the machine. Equally though, when he fills the machine, he washes mine.

No help to op but I can’t imagine any circumstances, except ill health, where I’d put up with this. It must be a monumental turn off, and shows lack of respect for himself, but mostly for you. I would be mortified if my partner (if I had one) saw a pair of my knickers with skid marks just once, never mind habitually. Have you spoken to him about it op?

Piles?

When my piles returned second pregnancy I would wipe and wipe but still have skidmatks in my knickers... Albeit smallish ones. Now they've gone down again I'm mainly skidmark free. But it does happen with piles

Cannot imagine why else a grown woman would be washing a grown man's pants.

Because I do the washing and DH does the ironing.
In fact he’s doing it right now while I’m sat in my garden with my book and a glass of wine.

And my partner does the washing and I was not mortified, but then I have no self respect eh?

When I had my daughter she had issues with her bum and that sparked my MIL to tell me that when OH was a baby, he had to be hospitalized every week for an enema because he couldn't use his bowels at all. He was under the hospital until 14 when they started to work on their own a bit better. So he does have really bad issues with pooing that aren't really his fault.

So I think he is cleaning ok, but maybe a bit is coming out. Sorry I know this is grosse. I just genuinely wanted to know how to clean as I have 2 young children and don't want the clothes in the same wash

Also to reply to some comments.. I haven't actually ever noticed skid marks until recently which when I saw it , it panicked me so I kept checking each pair after! And most do! I did tell him, he just laughed it off and I told him to wash his own and he just threw them in the machine and put on a normal wash. I don't really want my machine running with 1 pair of pants every evening because I will never get all the other washing done.

He is attractive to me, doesn't smell, always showers before bed, and in the morning. I don't feel this is a reason to LTB. Although completely get why you are all saying this 🤣 comments have had me chuckling to myself

dp can at times be guilty of this. let them sit in dettol water for a bit then bung in a hot enough wash in the machine. in all fairness he does have a legitimate reason for this as much as it irks me.

Bin them

@LilQueenie thank you for that advice. Yes I feel his reason is valid. His not all bad 🤣
