Where can I wash my clothes.

I want to wash my clothes (skirt, crop top and thigh highs) without my parents knowing, since I’m a boy. What should I do ?

Hi Angelz,

I think your options here depend on your circumstances. To list a few ideas:
  • If you have a washer and drier, you could try to wash your clothes while your parents are not at home.
  • You could try handwashing the clothes. If you do, you'll need a space where your parents won't see them, and where you can hang them to dry (make sure the floor can get wet).
  • If you have a friend that you can trust with this, you could also wash it at their house. You might have to think about whether the friend's family will notice, and the consequences of that.
Some clothes, like stockings and thigh highs, tend to be delicate and are best washed by hand or on a gentle cycle. You might want to check the cleaning instructions for your clothes.

What do you think about these options? Don't worry, if none of them work, we can troubleshoot.

For sure! As long as you feel comfortable going to a laundromat, that's a great idea.
