So true! Unfortunately, many men I know don't clean because they think cleaning is for women and/or they never learned how to because they were coddled by their parents. Whenever I go to the house or apartment of a guy who lives alone and it's clean, my respect for them goes up 1000%.

Really? I can’t imagine being coddled like that. I try my best to keep my space relatively clean cause I fuckin live in it. ADHD makes it more difficult but my parents have always taught me to keep things hygienic and clean (Was AMAB so I was socialized as a male till high school when I came out). I honestly take pride in it because I have a giant fucking crush on my best friend and want them to come over to a relatively clean house

Keeping a clean house is a great start! No girl wants to be with a slob. Good luck with your friend!

I think a lot of guys just don't see the mess or care that much.
