'House-Cleaning More Pleasure Than Sex - Women'

By Graham Hiscott, PA News

One in four women say they get more pleasure from cleaning the house than having sex, according to a survey published today.

The number was even higher among under 35-year-olds, with 40% of women happier to tidy the home than make love.

The poll of 1,000 women, for Good Housekeeping magazine, gave other insights into cleaning habits.

Four out of 10 women said they felt guilty relaxing when the house was untidy.

However, 60% of those questioned admitted the only time their home got a really good clean was when guests were coming to stay.

A further 26% said they gave the impression they had cleaned up by stuffing objects into cupboards and drawers.

Some 81% of women claimed they would always change the sheets on the spare bed after someone had slept on it.

But when it comes to their own bed, it seems the same rules do not apply. Twenty-per-cent of the women surveyed said not washing the sheets was one of their dirty domestic secrets.

Lindsay Nicholson, editor-in-chief of Good Housekeeping, said: “Women are forever battling with domestic guilt and perceptions of clean and tidy vastly differ from household to household.”

Fact:  One in four men admit they love their car more than their wife.

I think this one in four woman is married to the one in four man, and they need to stop whatever it is they are doing and start fucking more often.

I had a rebuttal to an Ann Landers letter where the woman complained about how her husband liked golfing better than being home and had no interest in sex anymore.

The guy's letter responding said that who could blame him for wanting to be around buddies who support him and share good times with him rather than a nagging, critical, 180lbs of unkempt woman.  Thought it was one of the best letters I've ever read.  I saved it for a while but it got lost over the years.

Q:  How can you tell when your woman has an orgasm?

A: Who cares?

I'd rather have the one even over all three of the others.

I really don't care if she does like sex or not, she's still a sure thing. But getting the house cleaned - that's getting lucky!

Women's innocuous cleaning assistant...or marriage killer?

Tonight on ABC Nightline, we investigate several unique vacuum cleaner attachments. The men who promote them, the women who buy them, and why some folks think they should be subject to government regulation.

I think that all of the women who like cleaning more then sex, arent having sex with the right guy. They need someone to show them whats up.

Since my ex was interested in neither housework NOR sex, they need to add a category for "bitching at her man" and see where that compares to the other two in terms of enjoyment.

Where was the survey from?
Who participated?

Not that I actually give a shit, but we could draw all kinds of conclusions from it.
Example, were these all married women? (they are have their "support" in place, don't need to use sex to keep him around anymore)
Do they all have children? ( a clean house with kids really IS a major accomplishment in my book)

Just a few examples, but we could make up so many more "facts" by knowing who they surveyed.

1 in 4 like house cleaning better than sex?  That's probably a high figure since I doubt 25% of women even know how to clean a house.

Know how many women it takes to change a light bulb?

Just one. She sits in the dark and bitches until a man comes along to change it.
