Will You Be My Personal Washing Machine?

Now to the matter of national importance of whether a wife should wash her husband's clothes or not, here is my verdict...

I love washing. We have a washing machine I don't use. Why? 1) No light and 2) I am too archaic for washing machines.
When I had my baby via a C/S and my husband was told that I shouldn't do any heavy duty work for 6 weeks, he bought the washing machine. I thought, "Err Oga, shouldn't you be packing my clothes and hand washing them as a sign of your undying love?" Mba, the love no reach to wash. It took me a while to adjust to my husband's disdain for washing. When drycleaners started featuring in our conversations, I decided to wash my clothes myself. I put the bucket on a stool so I won't have to bend and I hand washed my clothes. I did it before the man came back from work.
When he came back from work and saw what I had done, he scolded me. Eventually, he left the matter. He cannot understand my love for hand washing.

For me, hand washing is my opportunity for "Me time". I sing to myself, dream and strategize. I get inspiration when I'm washing. My hands in water makes me happy. I don't understand how so many people can hate washing.

So, as an ardent lover of washing, I think a question like this is making much ado about nothing. However, what concerns me is the fact that a man is sitting somewhere putting on clothes and getting them dirty, expecting (sorry demanding) that the "slave" he bought will wash the clothes and that's a shame. For the records, I don't wash my husband's clothes. I would have loved to but he prefers giving them to drycleaners. He claims I can't scrub his collard and sleeves the way he would love them to be scrubbed so my services are not required. I will still continue to tender my proposal...

I think if the man is treating his wife well, she will not feel resentful about washing his clothes. As hard as it is for me to say, if washing is not your wife's thing, wedding vows will not miraculously make her a "washing machine". If you expect your wife to wash your clothes, sir, include it in your proposal when you're asking her to marry you. "Will you take this journey of life with me? Will you become my personal washing machine?" If she says "Yes, I'll love to"... good. If she hisses and stones you with your ring, sorry, try another lady. Lol.

Let me catch a nap now. Enjoy your day.
