Women have been trying for years to domesticate men. Try as they might, men still find ways to watch sports instead of doing the cooking, ironing, etc. So ladies - how can you get the guy in your life to willingly volunteer to do all the ironing whilst you take a well deserved rest?
Introduce him to, Extreme Ironing (or EI) - An extreme sport and a performance art in which people take an ironing board to a remote location and iron a few items of clothing. According to the official website for the sport, it is the latest danger sport that “combines the thrills of an extreme outdoor activity with the satisfaction of a well-pressed shirt!”
Men need competition and domestic life doesn’t always offer too many physical challenges, but this sport is guaranteed to have the man in your life running to do all the ironing!- All a participant needs is an ironing board, a steam iron, a few wrinkled shirts and an extreme location.
Honestly, this sport is a multi-tasker’s wet dream finally fulfilled! - there is now no excuse not to get fit during the weekend and turn up to work on Monday looking absolutely fresh in crisp shirt!
Some locations where such EI performances have taken place include a mountainside, a forest; on a canoe; whilst skiing, snowboarding; on top of a statue, middle of a street, underwater; whilst parachuting; and even under an ice covered lake.
It is a great way to stay healthy whilst scoring some lovable points with your significant other. The performances can be done solo or in groups, so get out there and try it! -scramble your life!
