I agree with Hispanic. I suspect some portion of attachment to driers pertains to the shameful connotations of the phrase "hanging out one's (dirty) laundry in public". My wife asks me to hide her underwear behind other clothes on the rack.
Perhaps someone may invent a non-PITA way to hang dry our clothes. Robotic clothes horse?
- HeyLaughingBoy 14y agoWhat's the point of the robotic clothes horse when dryers are already available? To each his own, I guess. But as I said, dryers were invented for a reason. That reason is mostly convenience. I grew up in a home that hung laundry out to dry. I now live on a large enough property that no one without binoculars would know if I hung my laundry outside, but yet I use an electric clothes dryer. Why? It's infinitely easier and more convenient to just toss clothes from the washer into the dryer right next to it, push a button and walk away knowing they'll all be dry and fluffy when I get back. Don't discount convenience; it's the other Mother of Invention.
