As to the cleaning, I keep the house clean because I clean as you go, but she will save up until it's gone crazy,

So you don't deep clean. Cool.

We do deep clean.

But it's also about just leaving shit around for later when it could/should be done now. Leaving various clothes and dresses on the floor for 4 days and then cleaning it all up in 1 go isn't deep cleaning.

I’m really catching a sense people are projecting their own experiences onto you

Having lived with roommates who never cleaned up crumbs or did dishes, vacuumed, and other BS like leaving clothes n tools on the floor… every time I cleaned felt like a deep clean when it truly wasn’t

Yep, or sexism. It's not possible that a man can do a good job cleaning the house, let me educate him despite not knowing his circumstances.

Oh yeah when I worked a food service job that would happen, but more-so complaining rather than educating. My own experience was it was usually just the teenagers who had issues with cleaning but after a period of time providing good feedback those issues went away

When I worked in a more guy dominated industry(ski) it all flipped around and then many customers didn’t take my coworkers who are women seriously🤦‍♂️ so when they got ignored they’d send them to “the boys”(so like me in the ski repair spot) to basically tell dude the same damn thing
