I haven't ironed in decades. If you pull your clothes out of the dryer while they are still hot and get them hung up, you will very rarely need to iron.
Get them before they are completely dry too.
Same here, the only time I iron is when my shirt pocket flap gets out of line, or my collar decides to go rogue. Otherwise hanging clothes works. Also in a pinch, such as a hotel that has no iron, you can hang them by the shower and turn the shower on really hot for a while and the steam will help remove the wrinkles.
I've done this too. Hotel showers are awesome at getting stupid hot.
Well then I guess I'm the weirdo for putting fresh creases in my shirts and slacks after each wash.
The clothes today are wash-and-wear. Back then, clothes were untreated wool or cotton and looked rough unless cared for. The introduction of nylon and rayon and orlon changed the absolute need for ironing. Orlon? https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1990/06/13/so-long-orlon/b3eee7f2-a132-44d6-9063-2929305af711/

I haven't ironed in like ever. If you pull your clothes off the floor and put them on, you will never need to wash again!
...until you actually press a shirt or pants and look at it next to an un-pressed one, even hot out of the dryer.
You haven't seen one of your articles of clothing pressed in decades, so you probably don't remember.
