The Wonk Princess has recently acquired a couple of shirts that require laundering and pressing. I took her shirts to the laundry with mine and was shocked to find out that they charge about 2.5 times as much to do women's shirts as men's.

I had occasion to ask this question once, and their explanation was that they dry clean or hand wash (or something) women's shirts, whereas they launder/press men's shirts, and the latter is cheaper. Translation: just say they're men's shirts (if they are cotton) to get the men's price.
