Q: A new survey found that 10% of people wash these every time they use them?

A: jeans

 

A new survey asked people how long they go between washing some things that, frankly, lots of us don’t wash very often.  Here are the results . . .

  1. Jeans.  10% of people wash their jeans every single time they wear them and 44% do it at least once a week . . . but 28% go at least a month, and 18% will hold out for months and only wash them once they get a stain.
  1. Towels.  9% of people wash them after every use.  43% of people wash them once a week . . . and 15% wash them whenever they get around to it.
  1. Sheets.  44% wash them every one or two weeks . . . another 35% wash them once a month . . . but 21% use them indefinitely and only throw them in the laundry when they’re repulsive.
  1. Bras.  Only 5% wash them after every use . . . 56% go one or two weeks . . . and 33% wait until they SMELL WEIRD.  Women are much more aggressive with their sports bras.  41% wash them after every use, and no one just lets them go indefinitely.
  1. Underwear.  97% of people wash their underwear after they wear it once.  3% of people sometimes re-wear the same pair even if it’s dirty.
