Poll: Who's more organized/tidy, you or your significant other?

Who is more organized/tidy? You or your significant other?

This is in the sense that if you look at their car, their bedroom, their desk, etc, it is neat and tidy and there is no clutter in every corner.

I’d like to see if there is a trend, or whether things are equally balanced between the genders.

  1. Who’s more organized/tidy, you or your significant other?
  2. Are you male or female?
  3. Age range (20’s, 30’s, 40’s, …)
  1. Her, by a factor of several thousand.
  2. Male.
  3. Both in our thirties.
  1. Me, very noticeably, though neither of us is that great.
  2. Male
  3. 35

She is, by a country mile.
I’m male.
I’m early 30s, she’s late 20s.

  1. He is definitely tidier, although I’m more likely to notice/deal with dirt. (Or as I’d put it, he’s neat, and I’m clean.)
    2)I’m female
  2. Late 20’s

Me. If I wasn’t around, he would live in an apartment full of cables and boxes. :stuck_out_tongue:
Female.
30’s.

I’m not a stellar housekeeper by any means! I’m a cluttered person too, but I have a somewhat higher standard than he does.

Her by another country mile, downhill to boot and recently regraded.
Male.
I’m 40s and she’s a decade shy.

  1. Who’s more organized/tidy, you or your significant other?

I’m more organized; she is marginally more tidy. I can usually find what I want fairly quickly, but my desk is a mess and my file system is to put the most often used files in the front of the drawer. She puts things away, but forgets where she puts them, leading to long searches.
2) Are you male or female?

Male

  1. Age range (20’s, 30’s, 40’s, …
    50s.
  1. Neither - we’re about as cluttery as each other, which is to say extremely.
  2. Female
  3. I’m 24, he’s 27

Her; I don’t even place in that race, hell I’m not even sure we’re on the same track. If I sit still too long I may get dusted.

Male
Me 40 Her 50ish

My significant other is incomparably tidier and more organized, which is really bad as I’m single and can already tell you this about without having met them yet or even knowing if they exist.

  1. Who’s more organized/tidy, you or your significant other?
    I am the neater and more organized.

  2. Are you male or female?
    Male

  3. Age range (20’s, 30’s, 40’s, …)
    40’s.

  1. Him, always has, always will be. But I have managed to bring him down a bit closer to my level. By the same token he has made me slightly neater. I just don’t see dirt or mess most of the time. And we really don’t want to talk about my car or my desk. Really. As for my office at work, I need a shovel.

  2. Female

  3. Both 50’s

He’s making good progress & the both of us motivate eachother… we both tend to procrastinate though =) One of us eventually says something & there we go cleaning again.
30’s
female

  1. He is much more tidy and organised than I am.

  2. Female

  3. I’m 29, he’s 28

  1. I am organized enough for both of us. (He’s no slob. I’m just obsessive.)
  2. Female
  3. I’m 22; he is 27
  1. She is
  2. Male
  3. 30’s

It is about equal. We both have a tendency to let things pile up but we both seem to realize it needs cleaned up about the same time.

I am female

I am 39, he is 45.

I am. I really wish I knew how to get her to do chores on a regular basis, as many fights have been spawned over the topic. She folds laundry and occationally puts it away. I do dishes, trash, vacuuming, wash laundry, bathroom, and general pickup. It just wouldn’t get done otherwise.

Male

I’m 24, she’s 21.

  1. He’s definitely more organized, although we could use more storage space.
  2. I’m female.
  3. We’re both in our early 40s.
