What Are The First Things You Notice In A Lad’s House? Here’s What The Ladies Of The Internet Said…

Verdict? Our standards are pretty low.

You can get to know a lot about a man on a first date… but it’s only once you see his house that you really know what he’s like.

While he may have turned up in a smart shirt and wearing just the right amount of aftershave for the initial meetings, there’s nothing that can quell even the most intense of attractions like a stale-smelling apartment and a toilet that looks like it should belong at day three of a festival.

One user of Reddit decided to get the ultimate insight on the domestic turn-off’s this week… and here is what we learned.

A parental supervisor is definitely not a plus…

Animals, on the other hand…

Just as long as you keep the litter box far, far away…

The bathroom has got to be clean though, no excuses…

A tastefully decorated house obviously doesn’t mean a guy is gay…

Self-portraits are the worst EVER (if you didn’t already know that, WTF?!)

Evidence of other women is also a definite turn-off…

A hygenic and well-kept home is no guarantee of success…

You gotta have a bin in the bathroom (again, this should not be news to anybody)

Plants are a sign of a responsible and dependable man

We don’t like competing with other women… especially virtual ones

In short… our standards for men’s homes are pretty low!
