Men aren’t as useless as some people like to think, but they do develop their own ways of doing things, just as women do. So, what happens when they live with a woman who challenges them and their methods? Some men are sharing some pretty insightful things they didn’t realize until after they began living with a woman — and it’s all courtesy of r/AskReddit.

Fridges Can Hold a Lot

Isn't it amazing that we can have whatever food we want whenever we want, thanks to refrigerators? They can keep just about anything fresh, giving us so many more options at mealtime. At least, if you keep it full, that is.

Who knew that fridges could do more than hold five bottles of ketchup that are all partially finished and two of which are expired? Women, that's who. They're shopping geniuses and great at arranging things to fit as much in as possible.

Toilets Need Frequent Cleaning

When you think about how often a toilet gets used, especially with more than one person living in a house, you realize that it makes perfect sense to clean that sucker as often as you can.

This guy didn't realize it, but thank goodness he had a woman to teach him. We don't even want to think of what kind of state his toilet was in before she came along. He probably didn't know the bowl isn't supposed to be brown!

Women Can Be Slobs

One stereotype about women is that they're always very clean. Perhaps it comes from the fact that women used to stay at home and take care of the household. But, the thing about stereotypes is that they aren't always true.

Women may know tons of tricks for cleaning, but whether they actually use them is another matter entirely. Messiness isn't gender-related; some women are super filthy, while some guys are super clean. The goal is to find a partner who shares the same habits as you.

Long Hair Clogs Bathroom Drains

Since humans lose an average of 100 hairs a day, the shedding from a woman is definitely noticeable.

Hair in the drain can not only cause clogs, but it's also just plain gross. Pro-life tip, men - you can buy filters that go over the drain to catch all that hair. They'll make your life much easier.
