Trousers 10:03 - Oct 19 with 2621 viewsWeWereZombies

I did a wash on Tuesday and, as usual, I turned my socks, shirts and pants inside out because it makes sure that the dirtiest areas get closer to the detergent inside the drum of the washing machine. But as I put a pair of trousers in, been used for gardening so muddy here and there, I wondered why I never turned trousers inside out. Most of a pair of trousers faces the skin on the inside, parts covered by pants and socks being the exception, but tends to brush against it rather than the direct contact of the other garments mentioned.

Also, could be the subject of a board poll this, legs sweat less than armpits, feet and crotch so not so much need to turn them inside out. And trousers are more inclined to get muddy and so on from the bottoms upwards on the outside.

Perhaps I should set up a checklist of my trousers and use it to count when I have washed a pair of trousers without turning them inside out three times before turning them inside out for the fourth wash. Any TWTD posters do this?

I believe this is what's known in media circles as "A slow news day".

Or an attempt to not mention something else. So far, so good.

No Brexit bad news today?

And you should only ever dry clean trousers. Washing them takes the goodness out of the fabric.

I turn my trousers inside out both for washing and drying. Both detergents and the sun have bleaching properties - I do it to keep colours stronger for longer.

You must be extremely smelly!

I wash most things after one wear (apart from jeans and trousers) and I can honestly say none of my clothes or Mr Bluebell's ever smell. Even socks and pants are not 'dirty'. The only things I turn inside out are the shirts as I hang them on the line so as not to make marks on them with the pegs. A good deodorant should stop sweat and if you shower each day your feet shouldn't be dirty. I will also add that if you wipe properly your pants shouldn't get dirty too!




BUT of course I am a female.

So sorry to bring this up then, snowflake...

As mentioned a few weeks ago - two days then turn inside out, another two days the turn back to front, two days later then inside out again...

No point then in turning them inside out to wash then.

I turn my trousers inside-out as a fashion statement. Getting stuff in and out of the pockets is a little awkward ...

I did wonder why Mrs GB was so keen to emply somebody to trim her bush.
