Answer 10

remember the good old days before washer/dyer. our folks used to dry in clotheslines - sampayan - under heat of sun. this made cotton underwear hard - like toasted. so they iron (after water sprinking) to make it softer and to further remove germs coz iron is hot. heat kills germs.

no i don't iron mine.

Answer 11

as much as i would like to, i can't.   my mother-in-law regularly uses gawgaw or almirol to my underwears.  sigh... imagine how my undie can stand on its own...

Answer 12

Only if the wrinkles on my n*****k will be ironed out too.

Answer 13

h**l no! I wear Boxer Briefs and the only one who is going to see them is my Wife. Besides, They don't wrinkle much at all.

It must be some sort of disorder...

Answer 14

it does no harm if one would make sure their undies are ironed to disinfect it, some people,esp women, are more susceptible to UTI (urinary tract infections) that it is needed.

Answer 15

Who wears underwear anymore!?!?!

Honestly, I thought that was some old hollywood gag about anal retentive people ironing undies. I have never met anyone that admitted to it...and if I do meet them, yes: I will certainly think less of them.

Answer 16

I think the reason behind the "irony" is that some people are clean freaks. They thought some bacteria/virus had smeared on their undies during washing procedure particularly during when it was hang to dry. They believed that the heat of the iron can kill the bacteria/virus smeared on the undies.

Answer 17

I can't iron lace, nylon, lycra, and spandex.

Those materials are wrinkle free anyway and who cares if they're wrinkled.

Answer 18

yes I do. it's part of making everything clean, meaning free of unwanted germs that might still be lurking around. sometimes, the drier and the sun aren't enough to kill them.

and come to think of it, undies are used for the delicate parts of our bodies.  

Answer 19

No.  I don't even iron my outerwear.  That is why permanent press was invented.

Answer 20

no, not me.  someone does it for me.

Answer 21

7 years ago, i was in cebu, i saw the girl in the next room ironing her undies.

if you would like to know, NO way did i peak, the door was just open.

Answer 22

i don't iron my anything.  

Answer 23

No I don't because I'm a meticulous person when it comes about my personal things like clothes especially some delicate of these fabrics like silk etc.

Answer 24

Old people do because they think it's important.

Answer 25

"Disorder" hahaha

You just made my day

No, I don't iron my underwear.  I don't iron anything unless I absolutely have to

Answer 26

I do iron it. Not my underpant but my boyfriend's underpant. It's a habit of mine..even a lil bit of piece i do iron it.

Answer 27

Nope I don't iron mine. I guess it could be a habit if they just like to iron it all the time. Or a disorder if they feel the underwear must not be wrinkly

Answer 28

Yes, Kabayan.

If I still had my iron and ironing board.  Last time I went for vacation, I had them shipped thinking this was my last stint in Riyadh.

And then, they pushed me back on the plane again.

Anyway, I do that as a sort of psychological cleanser.   We both know the sunlight in Riyadh is sufficient to kill all the germs on the garments left out to dry.   But this does not reassure me, considering the near Alien life form tenacity of the bedbugs in my room.

Answer 29

No, I don't unless I want my underwear to stretch to allow 2 persons to wear it at the same instant. lol
