This is a question that goes long back in domestic history. Should the Alpha Male be responsible for his own laundry? Some say "No, I have more important things to think about. And, besides, the kids don't have to either." Others take a different view which often results in rude, derogatory language directed at the Alpha Male.
Now, I am single male and have been doing my washing for years. I don't really have an accurate perspective on this one, but seriously, dude, I'm not sure it's morally right that you are expecting someone else to take responsibility of your clothes, which you obviously don't want to do yourself, and then you are criticising them when you are inconvenienced.
Talk with your wife, find out why there was no clean laundry for you. Maybe she was too busy looking after the kids, or packing your lunch, or vacuuming the floors, or perhaps cooking your dinner.
This seems like a question you asked just for the reaction.
Well done. Crawl back to your cave.

Only a question for you before my answer: Do you work and get money for your wife and family??
If so,, its her duty,unless she is ill of course (in which case you'll help with everything ).
You have to make money for her and she has to take care of the household and kids, make sure that her family has clean and ironed clothes to wear, freshly cooked food when they come from school and work and a smiling face.. If she is working the same hours as well, you can have healthy take away sometimes and you can help her with the rubbish or something you can do. But having no clean underwear or clothes to wear is really unbelievable ! (except if you are joking!)

Please tell me this isn't a serious question!

A wife is NOT a maid. Remember, this isn't the 50's. Grow up! You are perfectly able to do your own laundry. It isn't rocket science, I promise.

If you only married her for her housewife skills, you are a very shallow and indecent person. Show a little appreciation! Housewives work way too hard and usually get very little gratitude. Don't take her for granted! Why not help her out more often to show her that you love her, that you are competant, and that you are appreciative of how hard she works for you.

She probably needs some "love." Think of her before yourself, and then she will be willing to do things for you out of the goodness of her heart, rather than obligation.

Hey hey - didn't you learn how to make undies last in Boy Scouts ? - First day - wear normally, second day, turn back to front, third day turn inside out normally, fourth day inside out back to front.
(Hithero only needing 2 pairs of underpants to make it through the week - 4 days each - 1 week 1 days worth of underwear - and make sure the first pair get bleached and washed before you need them again in another 4 days time !!)
Enjoy !! (PS You may want to spray them out with deodorant each night to help with the odour problem by day 3 !!)

If you're going to fire anyone it should be yourself for leaving it up to her. What's wrong with you? Why did you fail to mention something sooner? Is she supposed to be omnicient? Do your own laundry or ask her to do it.

If you are joking then it's hard to laugh because I think some men still think this way. I take care of the laundry and won't take any crap from my husband because I know he knows how to do laundry but he wouldn't give me any. He's a wonderful man.

Give her a hug and a smooch and tell her you love her and she will come around.
We women tend to get flats with the cleaning and wash. It's kinda like the movie "ground hogs day". Same, same, same.
I haven't fired my hubby from launching a banana peel across the room to make a basket and bouncing off my clean wall and blaming the cat lol.
Or maybe she wants ya to go buff :)

Your wife is your spouse and suppose to be soul mate. She isn't your maid and she isn't required to do the laundry. You should help out. How about you do the laundry sometimes? I don't understand why so many men still think a woman should take care of all housework, laundry, etc. Things change, ya know? Welcome to 2007.

Hire somebody to do the washing and spend time with your wife in a bedroom than in a laundry.

Give the poor girl a day off.....with pay :)

(((While she is enjoying her PAID day off, you should be catching up on some much needed laundry)))

I do most all of ours, mainly because my wife only knows how to "load" the machine..from there on its a no go....

Good Luck!!!
