Do people not own ironing boards anymore?
I’ve literally not met a single person who owns an ironing board under the age of 40, and since most of the Gen X I know were punks, even there it’s a very rare thing. I’ve personally only ever used one in hotels, because might as well since it’s there.
I'm 24 and I own one! Well, my husband brought it into the household when we moved in together. And he only owned one because is mother is an insane clean freak that will iron literally everything, even towels and socks/underwear.
We've used it 4 times in the past 5 years.
Then you don't know anyone who owns a sewing machine.
Personally I just iron on my floor when I've got a shirt that needs ironing
Yeah it's not the best but it works in a pinch
You don't even need an ironing board. I lay a bath towel on my table and iron on that.
