Do you pay additionaly for laundry?

Hello, just a quick, do you make your maids responsible for laundry? Do you pay additionaly for that? My maid (actually it is a male maid) is doing all laundry for me and my family, also handwashing my delicates. My expat friend is paying extra for that, how it is in your case?

Not really. Try to wash in machine nylon hosiery, i mean real nylon like Gerbe or Cervine. You will ruin them very quick

Gerbe is cheap tatty underwear- no need to hand wash at all

You should know that it is Cervin- cant you read the labels ? (but also very cheap and nasty underwear) .

The sad thing is people like this de exist in Britain. I've nannied for a family who had a housekeeper who did literally everything including cleaning dirty knickers off the parent's bedroom floor and washing (with a machine though). I had the same role for their kids and I expect they are not embarrassed by others seeing their dirty underwear because it's always been someone else's job that's how they grew up it's not weird to them.

Do your own washing

My colleague has a young male overtly effeminate housekeeper three times a week, I’ve met him when Ive been to hers.

i can never get the thought out of my head!

I had someone do laundry for me when I lived abroad in a country where there weren't washing machines. It was normal.
In the UK it would be weird. We have a cleaner and she changes the bedding and puts the used bedding next to the washing machine for me to wash.
I have heard of Nannie's doing children's laundry but I wouldn't expect ours to, at most I would ask her to remind the kids to put their own dirty clothes in the wash.

Er, what thought?

I recommend M&S for pants. You can chuck in at 40, tumble dry and save the maid the bother of scrubbing your gussets

This thread is so bizarre

DatingDinosaur · 02/06/2024 11:50

I think you're all being harsh. It's quite obvious the OP has a dom/sub fetish and is getting randy over the thought of her manslave washing her frillies.

Nothing wrong with telling us about it OP but you might be better off posting on the Sex board Grin

Of course, always had as I remember? Do you expect that executives are doing this on their own? We live in Singapore at the moment, before spent years in Peru and Ecuador.

<spits out tea>

This cannot be real 😂
