My mum would spend hours ironing clothes when I was a kid. I dont think I’ve ever seen an ironing board at any of my friends houses. A whole generation just said “fuck ironing” and we did. Good work everyone.

@robb
My great aunt used to iron her bedsheets 💀

@ana @robb My parents had a special ‘rotary iron’ — a big padded rotating drum with a curved hot plate pressing onto it — which was used for sheets and similar. 😱 It was actually quite fun to use.
Something like this, though ours was a table-top model.
