to iron my hubbys boxer shorts?

[bozo14]

Just doing the ironing and wondering if everyone irons boxers or I can get away with not ironing them hehe.

They are the loose fitting they do look slightly creased

Why isn't he ironing them himself?

Only you and he are going to see them, plus they will wrinkle when he puts them on anyway so what's the point of ironing them in the first place?

A list of ways in which you are bu:

Use of the word hubby (aargh)
Doing another adults ironing for them
Ironing underwear
Needing to ask on here if YAbu

It's a Sunday morning though, I presume you are as bored as Iam!

YABU. Why would it matter? Ironings for aesthetics. Unless he wanders round in his pants its an utterly pointless task.

I have never ironed boxers.

hehe

Hilarious

Why are you doing his ironing anyway?

RJnomore has said it very eloquently already.

YABVU, for all the reasons outlined by RJnomore.

I've never ironed a pair of boxer shorts in my life.

To the people asking why she's doing his ironing, perhaps it's part of the chores they split down the middle?

Why on earth would anybody iron anybody's underwear??
Genuine puzzlement to me.

OP, YABU, big time.

RJ I find ironing boring any excuse to brighten it up.

OMG i actually didnt realise I shouldnt be doing hia ironing. He says he cant iron and I just do it ?!? He would look all creased otherwise...

I wondered if they would be more comfy if ironed?

Yabu no need to iron most things underwear.

If your life is completely empty of meaning then go ahead..
On the other hand I have started folding pants (part of decluttering technique - I blame mumsnet!) so how can I talk.

You clearly haven't read the thread with the bot fly. :)
Sometimes underwear should be ironed.

Big, badly creased boxers I might iron. Slightly creased, no.

If you find it boring why are you doing it?

Having now read your second post

If he claims he can't iron, teach him how to do it or let him creased clothes if he refuses to learn.

HTH

*wear creased clothes

I do iron for my husband but not his boxers. I iron for him as he does all the cooking, the hoovering and various other household tasks. It's called sharing the load isn't it?

I only iron school stuff and dh's shirts (he makes my dinners so the least I can do is iron his shirts). I would never waste time ironing underwear, bedding or anything else really.

I never iron any of DH's clothes so perhaps I'm the wrong person to ask. But I'd say NO don't do it!

what rj said.

Though I lost the will to live at the word "hubby"

We don't iron anything at all except the odd shirt, trousers and my blouses. Dh does it all though. He loves ironing.
You do not need to iron any underwear. Nobody sees it. As long as it's clean that's all that matters.
I have a lunatic friend who actually irons her dh's socks!!! Socks!! Gaaaaah!!

If in Africa, iron everything. If not you could get a tumbu maggot living in your flesh. Ours was called Billy, but he has many relatives waiting for your unironed clothes...

It's all in the hanging up of washing - nothing in this house gets needs ironing.

Bot fly infested areas may need an exception, I accept that….

I don't know where my iron is.

Insane to iron boxers though as yes he really should be doing his own ironing. Life's too short.

Hope you starch them too.

I tell DH 'if you want clean knickers get them in the machine now!'

Hatespiders you do realise I will NEVER be able to un-read that now, don't you?
