OMG... ! :oops:

In a survey of 2,000 people last year, 30 per cent of those asked confessed they wash their bedding once a year or less, while a further 38 per cent said they washed their coats the same amount.
Over a quarter of those asked admitted they only washed their cushions and blankets once a year, while a further 18 per cent washed their jeans just as infrequently.
When it comes to washing underwear, the majority of women said they washed their undergarments after every wear, while a quarter of men admitted to washing their underwear after every five washes.
When it comes to age, millennials are the cleanest with 17 per cent washing clothing after one wear, while 65+ year-olds have the lowest percentage of those who wash after one use with 13 per cent.



I can't even imagine this... ! I wash bedding every week... the comforters get done every 4 weeks, cushions, pillows and throws every 4 weeks ... my jeans every 2nd wear... my coats get washed several times a year... and of course my underwear after every wear..

How on earth are a massive 1 in 3 people being so dirty ?>.ugh!!:sick:
 

Are you kidding me????

I jist can’t imagine how that bedding must SMELL! 😵

I wash the sheets every week, the rest of the bedding every month. Most of my clothes are washed after one wear, except if I change to go out to dinner or other outing. Sometimes those clothes get hung back up for another wear, depending on a variety of factors.

I hate walking into a home and having the smell of dog overlaying everything else, so I wash and disinfect our dogs’ bedding and crates etc every week.
 
From Levis:

WASH YOUR JEANS LESS​

Wash them once every 10 wears at most to maintain fit and prevent too much "rebound." Or go even longer and wear them until they smell a little funky. Use a damp cloth or old toothbrush with mild soap to remove small stains instead of washing them. You know the distinct lines and creases you see on your jeans, the ones specific to you? That unique look comes from wearing your jeans for long periods without washing.
 
All my personal clothing gets washed after one wearing. Jackets after each season and are put away clean unless we have traveled, then everything gets washed.
Bedding once a week, blankets every month except for the electric blanket. That one gets washed twice a year. The comforter at the end of each season because it only covers the bed and is taken off each night. I would melt if I had to sleep under it every night.

Reading this thread makes me wonder why 'naturism' isn't more popular. Bedrooms could be a thing of the past with everyone sleeping in a hot tub, then the population would then all be nice and clean.
Well, I'd give it a go. :)
 
OH MY! You want to sleep in a stinky bed I guess you can. Not this ole' Packer! I love fresh laundered clothes and bed sheets. I do laundry every Saturday morning. One Saturday I do all my personal laundry and the next Saturday I do my bed sheets; including pillow cases. Simple Math will tell you that I wash my own clothes 26 X every year and I wash my bedding 26 X every year. Love to go to sleep in fresh bedsheets.

I still miss my cottage days when the bed sheets were hung outside to dry. That was heaven. You know when I see men with those huge unkept beards that need washing, I imagine that their beds are pretty much the same. It is a shame that so many people show absolutely no shame in the clothes they wear, the dirty cars they drive, the beards they carry and the beds they sleep in. Even "Porky the Pig" showed some class!

By the way, ladies, how would you like a blind date with the guy in the photo?

They must all be single and living alone. It is too yucky to contemplate.
