I was having a chat with some friends and we were talking about how, in the U.S. at least, washers are usually on the left and dryers on the right and why that might be. Someone pointed out that we wash first and then we dry. But then someone else pointed out that we are sort of primed to think in left-to-right terms already since that’s the direction in which we read. So here is my question:
Are washers usually on the right and dryers on the left in the Middle East?
Heat, alone, doesn’t dry your clothes. If you’ve ever had a blocked exhaust tube on your dryer, you’ll know that clothes can be hot and wet. You need the airflow to carry the evaporated water away.
Like what you might find in a hot, dry region?
Airflow?
TIL the Middle East was in a vacuum.
It was frequently humid when I lived along the Persian Gulf. It’s not like the entire region is sand dunes in the middle of nowhere.
Awesome, which side was the dryer on where you lived?
