Tell me (all you men) if this is a general male thing:
My love language is generally speaking acts of service. Im nearing the end of my degree this month then starting full time work in January. Im always super busy. BUT I cook for myself and my husband the majority of the week and I thoroughly enjoy it. Hes fantastic at doing really obvious cleaning jobs like taking out trash/recycling, doing the dishes, hanging out laundry. But when it comes to smaller less obvious jobs like cleaning certain areas in bathroom/toilet or remembering to keep the cupboard that keeps the plastic containers in a tidy condition hes average. Not dissing my husband at all, Im very grateful for the wonderful husband God has given me.
But Ive also been room mates with a couple of guys when I was at university and they were the same. Great with doing the dishes, but if theyd ever shave and leave their hair all over the sink they wouldn't do anything until I complained but then theyd hardly make it a priority. Also they seem to be fond of the idea that if "you can't see the mess then its not there" myth, example being not regularly cleaning the toilet rim, until it got so bad there was a permanent poo stain (shudder).
Is being detail orientated re cleaning kryptonite to men?
