I once had a discussion with pupils of mine, 17/18-year-old girls. They all ironed their underwear and told me that that was the way to do. They had learnt it from their mothers. I couldn't believe it!
I thought they and their mothers had a screw loose and they may have thought that I was a slovenly housewife.

I had a "neighbor" in my college dorm who ironed her bras. I thought maybe it was a southern thing here, she was from Louisiana, a southern state.

@GardenGerty I think it is an individual thing. Some people do have a screw loose!

@MALUSE LOL Did you just say my husband has a screw loose! That would be wrong. He has several that are loose!

I don't either, but I do like the way he folds them and puts them under the mattress. That comes in handy.

@Writingghost You don't have to do it; so that's a plus!

@LindaOHio That is true and when it's time to change sheets they are under the mattress in the pillowcases and things go quick and easy. No complaining on my part.

We did not iron sheets, but in college the girl next door to me ironed her sheets, and her bras among other things. I did not own an iron in college. Is your husband from the south?

I do like crispy sheets but I no longer iron them I just buy Ralph Lauren green tag sheets that are rather stiff and it is perfect.

I hardly ever iron anything anymore and especially not sheets!
