@pagandad no they iron their own uniforms. Probably didn’t want to drive to the cleaners and pay someone.

@pagandad the ROTC students in the dorms always had an ironing board set up in the hall & would iron their uniforms.

If they’ve spent any time in the military they can. I actually iron my wife’s clothes for her.

Doubtful, all the men I've know don't mind wearing it wrinkled.

@curiosi I fall under that category but most men I have seen would prefer to never have wrinkles on their clothes

Probably the irons they sell don’t fit their hands well, that’s why

Mine does. I showed him how to do it so he irons for me as well.

I'm not a husband but I can iron. My uncle would say "ohh that's womans work" ...but hes kind of a jerk though. His wife also mows the yard and feeds the cattle. I guess that's womans work to according to him

I don't know, but my seven year old sister knows how to do it, so they literally have no excuse for not knowing how to iron their own damn clothes. Someone with half a brain cell can do it.

I'd say VERRRRRRY few! In college, I didn't knows about doing laundry so I washed a the pants to my suit once (ONLY ONCE). I had to teach myself to iron and sew too.

I used to wear suits to work every day, so I learned how to iron quite well. Although I don’t do it as often, I still can.

I can iron
My first wife failed when she tried to iron a nylon shirt.
My second wife didn't know what an iron was for.

I know how to iron I know how to wash dry fold and put away clothing I know how to clean the house clean the bathroom I've done it all.

I can iron, but not very well. Probably more a function of not doing it often than an inability.
SW-User
No, most don't. But I do. In fact I do it in part because it hurts my wife, so I will iron her clothes as well.

Not a husband. Mom had me ironing at home at age ten. Including her nursing caps, with starch!
SteveTomms · 56-60, M
Well I can only speak for myself when I say I do the vast majority of the ironing.
Beatbox34 · 31-35, M
Not married but I don't know how to. I do know how to cook to some extent though
CharlieZ · 70-79, M
Did it when single.
Did it while married.
Did and do it since divorced.

I’ve never taken a poll. But I’m just as likely to scorch a shirt as anyone. I opt for permanent press clothing whenever possible. 😅
