AP: "A Hillary Rodham Clinton campaign stop was interrupted when two men stood in the crowd and began screaming, "Iron my shirt!" during one the US senator's final appearances before New Hampshire voters cast the first primary ballots in the US.

"Clinton, a former first lady running to become the United States' first female president, laughed at the seemingly sexist protest that suggested a woman's place is doing laundry and not running the country.

"Ah, the remnants of sexism - alive and well," Clinton said to applause.

"The two men were removed from the auditorium after raising a pair of signs that said, "Iron my shirt!" They also shouted the slogan."
