Does anyone actually sort laundry?
i dump it all in! I'll do the sheets separately but whites and darks and sometimes towels are all thrown in the same load.

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
I do darks, lights, sheets and towels all separate and then last I do my whites because I bleach them through one cycle and then do a cycle with detergent.

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
I do the same thing. I don't have a lot of whites, I would never be able to make a whole load.

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
I do. I'm actually really anal about it. 
Sheets / towels
Knits / Delicates
colors
whites
horseback riding clothes and workout clothes (that don't go in the dryer)
If I don't have enough for a full load, though, I'll either way or combine somehow... Laundry in my house is neverending, though, so I don't generally have that problem -- even with just two people!

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
Yes. Darks, Brights/Lights, and Whites. DH doesn't when he does laundry, hence all of his white undershirts are so dingy!! I want my whites to stay white, thank you very much! 
ETA: Before we were married, DH did his own laundry. Now he occasionally does all our laundry, but rarely!

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
Yup. Lights, Darks, Whites. I grew up seeing my mom doing that and she made me believe that the darks will tint the lights if you mix them. This could be an urband legend but I am not willing to find out.

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
I do darks, lights, brights, whites, reds/pinks and delicates.
Eta: forgot towels and sheets - they're separate too. Our loads are usually small so it doesn't take long.

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
I do, but we have to go to the laundromat and since it adds up, it's whites alone so I can use bleach, and then everything else together.

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
wow good for you ladies!! i guess i am the minority!
i honestly don't see a difference in my laundry...
if anything i would probably like to do the whites separate so that the socks n tshirts stay nice and white- but for now, i'll continue to dump it all together

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
I definitely separate. I use different soap for different colors, diffrent temperatures, etc. I do so many differnt loads. Reguarl darks, dark delicates, regular lights, light delicates, sheets, towels, jeans, etc.

Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry?
I separate my laundry. It's much easier now that I actually have my own washing machine!
I do a whites/towels/sheets that I wash in hot water.
Then I do a warm/light colors wash.
Then cold/dark colors. I wash DH's socks in cold that are black so the colors don't fade.

exactly! I use warm water for lights, cold water for darks. I also hand wash and air dry many clothes too.
I honestly don't have a TON of clothes so I like to keep all of my clothes looking great for as many seasons as possible. I have clothes that are over ten years old ( classic pieces ) that still look brand new without being faded or fuzzy!
