My mum would spend hours ironing clothes when I was a kid. I dont think I’ve ever seen an ironing board at any of my friends houses. A whole generation just said “fuck ironing” and we did. Good work everyone. 

 @2144e09c I was born in 1952 and I can tell you that clothes were made out of very different fabrics. Synthetics were still a very new thing and a lot of technology is used today to make clothes "easy care".
