About ten years ago, my washing machine went kaputt, and due to complicated circumstances, I ended washing my clothes manually, for about two weeks, until I had a new washing machine. And my clothes were not very dirty, and I did not put all the effort into it that I could have.
And still I understand these women. It is exhausting, boring, repetitive. Way worse than doing the dishes manually (which I already do not like to do).
- gowld 9y agoWashing dishes is rather easy -- dishes are glazed ceramic, designed to be dirt-proof. Underclothing is designed to draw sweat from clothing, and outerclothing can't practically be made soil-proof since you don't want to wear ceramic armor all day.

Especially if you leave your hand-wash dishes to dry on the rack. Whereas a washing machine saves lots of time because as you say, clothes take longer to wash.
