Maybe I should just put my pants in the dryer and try to shrink 'em.
Don't laugh -- it works! First wash them in super-hot Water for maximum shrinkage. Of course, the pants may get shorter but no narrower. . .

I'm a line dryer myself, but if you haven't had any complaints from Patty, just keep doing what you're doing. You must be a wonderful husband indeed if this is the only thing about you that her complaining friend can whine about!

Yeah, Betty, I am glad I asked. I was truly stumped. And I didn't want my personal feelings to interfere.

Thanks guys, I know it may have sounded like a silly question, but I know what to do now. I'll dry them just as I have all along.

I put mine in the dryer and I have hefty ones. I think you are awesome and yes you should put your pants in the dryer too.

Well, I am late to this thread, but just wanted to put my 2 cents in, LOL! I buy fairly expensive bras and I want them to last a good long time so I hang em up to dry. Now if my dh does the laundry he always puts em in the dryer. Am I gonna complain? HELL NO, HE DID THE LAUNDRY!!!

Ryan, you just keep right on doing what you were doing. Becky should be proud that her dear friend has a husband who is so willing to do all the things you do. Shame on her!!!

OK, I'm super-late to this thread. I line dry mine. It's so strange when you are a caregiver and helpers come in and end up getting involved in your loved one's underwear. All the former boundaries disappear. My Mom's best friend shamed me into buying her new bras. She was right, but it was just strange to have her going through my mom's underwear drawer.

Ryan,

I never dry my bras in a dryer. I buy bras that last for years if treated right. This is what my mother taught me & I have always air dried them & they last a long time. I just set them flat on top of the dryer while the rest of the clothes dry. That way they get a little warmth to help them along. It goes quickly. They are expensive ($60-$80) each. You want them to last a long time. I do have a few less expensive Victoria Secret bras which I will tumble dry but only for a few minutes.
