A traditional couple used to refer to having sex as 'Doing the laundry"
One night the husband turns to his wife and asks, " are we able to do the laundry tonight"?
She responds, " not tonight, I have a terrible headache".
So they turn back to back and go to sleep.
Some time later the wife feeling bad that she declined the offer turns to her husband and says
" We can do the laundry now".
Her husband responds by saying, " that is all right, I only had a small load so I did it by hand".
