Am I the only one who likes fabric softener? For me it was a game changer to go from wrinkly, stiff clothes to softer, less wrinkled clothes.

I definitely don't use it every wash, but I do think it makes a real difference.

I wouldn't be caught dead using dryer sheets, though. That's a scam.

I like both softener and dryer sheets ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't, but dryer sheets are incredibly cheap too.

IDK anything about it, but I've read "softener bad" a few times so I've just stopped putting it in and honestly haven't noticed.

My partner does though so now when she sees or hears me doing laundry she reminds me to use the softener.

Many clothes, especially athletic/athleisure fabrics, should not be washed with fabric softener. Check the label to be sure.

athletic/athleisure fabrics

I really don't understand the point of that trend. Unless you're competing at a high level, your clothing doesn't matter at all.

That said, it makes average women's bodies look incredible. So maybe that's why.

Sounds like maybe you do understand the point.
