Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I'm allergic to dryer sheets.
Me too. At least, I stopped getting random rashes wherever the elastic of my clothes hit when I stopped using them, and being around clothes dried with the stronger smelling ones makes me sneezy and teary.

Sean, here's the Materials Sheet for Bounce.
If Bounce were made of fiberglass, they wouldn't be so casual about ingestion. The instructions for what to do if somebody eats one boil down to "Wait till it shows up on the other end."

I like dryer sheets well enough, but I'm too much of a cheapskate to buy them. Yes, I get cheap over $2.00. Hey, 15 boxes of dryer sheets = a half-way decent bottle of single malt. Gotta have priorities.

Hmmm.... Okay, your link confirms that the sheet deposits softener on the clothes (also confirmed by the clothing professional, who says that deposit of softener can also worsen certain stains), but it's not quite debunking the abraiding-of-fabric effect.

They may well abrade the fabric, but it's not because they're made out of fiberglass. They're made of nonwoven polyester cloth.

I dislike dryer sheets, but on occasion will use half of an unscented one with the laundry.
Never, however, on anything that touches the kid.

You wanna know what's weird? 15 years ago when my kid was an infant, they told us to rub Bounce sheets on her hair (or tie them in as a bow) for a safer-for-babies insect repellant.
Of course, they also told us to put her to sleep on her tummy, ALWAYS, for fear of SIDS.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I use no FS on anything that touches the kid. As Cash once pointed out, it un-tards the flame retardant.

Okay, can you at least wait until I ask a question before you answer it?
