14 Things About Women Men Only Learned About After They Started Living With One

There are many things men don’t know about women, much outside the textbook information from the school. It takes living with one to shock them so much that they’d go, “Woah, so women are like these.”

Can’t say we’re not mad, but these are just so accurate. Way too accurate, in fact, that perhaps we’ll watch out more the next time we need to use toilet paper. The men shared what they’ve learned from observation after living with one in this Reddit thread.

1.

“I lived with four girls in my first year of university. I learned that they can be just as messy–if not messier–than guys. There would always be a stack of dirty plates and cutlery whenever they finished cooking, and the kitchen would be filthy. Guess we all live like a bunch of animals.” – Reddit

2.

“I didn’t realize women lay in the bathtub with their legs going up the wall, where the faucet is. So the faucet sprays water on their vag, to get off. When my GF moved into a new apartment, she walked right into the bathroom and turn on the bathtub faucet, and excitedly gasped at how high the water pressure was.” – SpankMeDaddy22

“That decorative pillows are a thing. You carefully choose and purchase them just so you can spend the rest of your life pushing them out of the way, and occasionally cleaning them.” – Renaissance_Slacker

4.

“Had no clue I loaded the dishwasher ‘wrong.'” – MakeTVGreatAgain

5.

“Women pee with a pressure hose. I still get a little scared when I hear a girl have a good piss, and it sounds like she’s boring a hole through the toilet.” – aegroti

6.

“That women have magically regenerating hair. Otherwise, my girlfriend should be bald judging by the amount of hair she leaves around the apartment.” – _Ardhan_

“In my 10 years living alone, I have never once needed to dump Drano down any of my drains. They just never get clogged with the short hairs that go down the drains. I have to dump Drano down the drain every 4 months, or else I’ll get a lake in the shower. And this also happens when I use those shower mushrooms in the drain to collect hair.” – ioncloud9

“Women are always cold… always. I can be sweating in shorts and a t-shirt, but my SO will be wrapped in blankets still.” – Reddit

“When I first moved in with my girlfriend, I got yelled at for putting ‘dirty’ clothes with my clean ones. I was totally under the impression I could wear that shirt like two more times.” – UnspoiledWalnut

10.

“I never realized just how much blood comes out of a woman on her period until I walked in on a friend taking a shower… I honestly thought she was dying and bleeding out.” – Eldritchedd

11.

“Women use a lot of toilet paper, A LOT.” – nunesgss

“Female shaving their bits. Oh, man, the first time I saw my girlfriend do this, I was immediately terrified as if I knew a better way to do it.” – I_dont_bone_goats

“It took me a while to figure out that pads are stuck onto the panties as opposed to right on the vagina!” – aurelieus

“My bathroom filling up with more niche (and unreasonably expensive) hair and skincare products on every available surface. I have bar soap and a thing of shampoo. My last two partners both had at least 20-30 different bottles of product.” – aether_tech
