Nah… It’s a waste of time now… Washing machines and detergents are super different now than they were when we were little… Seems completely unnecessary now…
I don’t usually, but it does make your whites shirts get dingy after awhile, my family just doesn’t wear much white to begin with.
People who say no have no idea how color in clothing is put in. Do some research or your own experiment by putting darks into water and watch the color bleed out. Ofcorse you separate. Not only do you separate, but darks use cold water to wash. Lights use warm and whites use hot. Laziness is exactly why good clothes look old and dirty after washing. But hey, most people don’t care what they look.like by the sounds of these comments. Lol

I only do if I have something that will bleed, or if I want to bleach my whites.
I do colors, darks, and whites.
Yes always and socks wash by themselves
Yep, by color, and by fabrics. Jeans, t shirts, cotton, and delicates go separately.

Yes we do, whites, lights, darks etc. You can definitely tell who washes their whites either other colours
Nope…I use color catcher sheets
Only thing I was separate is towels and clothes. Whites/light and darks go together
Only if I have whites I’m concerned about.
I separate by weight, heavy and light because they wash differently
I only separate colors if I’m bleaching whites or if a color is new and likely to run
Yes if it’s some thing that might run
Or if I’m doing whites using bleach
Nope it’s a waste of time. If it’s something that might bleed I will wash separately after I buy it otherwise I’m good.

I seperare blues, blacks, pinks, whites, yellows, greys etc
I don’t I just throw all that shit in together
Yes and you can tell who doesn’t lol! Whites go in on their own on hot with bleach, colours on their own with oxyclean on warm, darks on their own, also with oxyclean. All bedding by itself in hot water, duvets with bleach added and hung to dry. All my towels get washed on their own, also in hot water. Dish cloths, I soak in concentrated bleach overnight when used… if you mix your whites with darks or other colours your whites will turn grey and look dingy. Also jeans should go in by themselves, delicates, etc. 
Clothing together, linen alone, towels alone

If the coloured clothes are new I separate. After a few washes they no longer shed color so I throw it all in together.

Throw everything in at once 
if you get a pink shirt, underwear,socks,wear them with pride 
, I never separate
I do it simply because my husband and I love the smell of freshly bleached whites. Everything else gets thrown together. Just to clarify, though, we don’t bleach every white item we own. Sometimes they get thrown into the same wash together.
Yes I do. If you wash whites with darks it fades the whites

Yes!! If not, your whites aren’t going to stay white and colored clothes certainly don’t need hot water like whites and towels.

I don’t separate shit 
but if I get something I think will bleed onto other things I do wash separately. Normally I just throw everything in though.
I don’t unless it’s something important I don’t wanna risk but that’s rare lol
I do. My fiancé doesn’t. He will only separate the towels lol
Defo separate…keeps them brighter…
Only when I don’t want my whites to be gray and grungy looking.
Generally speaking…no.
We don’t have enough whites to make it worth a separate load TBH.
When we had/used a white comforter I did but we rarely use that comforter anymore.
Mine and the kids socks are colored.
We don’t have my white shirts. None of our towels are white.
The only thing I do seperate is cleaning rags, bath Matt’s, ect they’re all done in their own load about once a week.
No but I will if I have something new that’s red for a few washes
No…but only bc there isn’t enough clothes to wash to do that. I have my kids wash their own clothes.
Yes, always. There’s nothing worse than whites that are grey and dirty looking.

Towels and bedding in one load, clothes in the other lol. No clothes get separated😂
Only towels and bedding go separate from clothes. I don’t separate lights and darks
Yes definitely separate
Never. Never had any problems.
I do. I bleach the whites to keep them as white as possible for awhile. I hate dingy white.
I do. I separate whites, colors, and darks.
I don’t because I don’t have any whites 
I don’t separate by color unless its a new red or dark item, but I do keep towels and bedding together, and socks and underwear together. In my mind, socks and underwear get a better wash and rinse without bigger clothes in there.
Yes! And also the mans clothes are separate from my own. He works and mold.
The only time I separate would be if we have new clothes.
My last paycheck was $16,815 where I worked online 19 hours a week. My sister’s boyfriend made an average of 16,000 for months and works about 20 hours a week. I can’t believe how easy it was after trying it.

Nope. The only whites we have are hand towels or bath towels. Towels are separated from the clothes, so technically yes lol, but not in the sense you are talking about 
Yes! I even separate by material

Nope!the only real white clothes I have are socks and undies. I’m not separating whole loads just to wash then. Too many loads and I’m too lazy lol. That being said, if the load is too big, I will separate jeans and other heavy clothes. Towels are their own load as is bedding.
I don’t own much of anything that is just white… Waste, gets dirty so fast. So no we.dont have to sort. Although I do separate towels and clothes…
I separate whites which are all of hubbys socks , delicates/ my work clothes, and my hubbys clothes his stink from work and have chemicals on them everything else is washed together for my daughter and myself our daily clothes towels etc.
I can’t believe adults are actually asking this question in 2022.
I separate towels and clothes. If I hv enough whites I’ll put them all together and do a just white load with bleach. But I usually only bleach/white load my bed sheets.
Yes and I turn my blue jeans inside out so they actually stay darker longer. Don’t know why but it works
Yes ! Separate everything and turn certain clothes inside out

No… everything goes in together. I only separate towls and blankets
I don’t bother lol never makes a difference only time I do is when it’s brand new like jeans but that’s it
I sort laundry into piles. Clothes. Towels. Bedding. But I don’t separate lights, darks, colors and whites. Nobody has time for that! I do use a detergent that has like color protection, so colors don’t dull and bleed onto the whites/lights.
I don’t but Janet does.
I have a separate basket for whites. My husband wears white T’s to work everyday. Washing them separately with bleach keeps them fresher and have to be replaced less often. If someone else in the house wears something plain white it just goes into hubby’s basket. It’s not like I’m doing extra work or anything

I don’t bother separating. No issues so far and I’ve been doing it for over 15 years
I separate everything. Whites, lights, darks, gym clothes, towels, sheets, blankets, dog bedding/towels …. anything else is just gross 
Nope, never have. The only separation in our house is by person.
100% I always separate laundry.
Only when I’m doing my partners laundry
Whites from dark? No as long as there is nothing new in the load. Other things yes!
I definitely separate laundry. I wash all of my towels/wash cloths/underwear with bleach. I feel like if you don’t that’s just nasty 
plus if you wash your colors with your whites, the white ends up looking dingy. 
Depends. If it’s brand new I wash it separately the first time just in case it bleeds. Otherwise it’s all together with oxy-clean
Lights and darks towels/sheets blankets. In my house
Only issue I ever have with my whites is when it’s washed with well water. Otherwise it all goes on together!
I separate jeans and nice clothes from the rest.
I only separate my colors when I buy something new, then after that I throw them all together. Towels and sheets are separate from our clothes.
