I think that also, you have hit upon a fundamental difference between men and women. Women tend to value things for their aesthetic quality, while men value things for their functionality. For men, if something doesn’t have a functional value then it has no aesthetic one either. For example, if I have a decorative sword on my wall but it’s made of tin, it doesn’t belong there. But if I can pull it down and slice a home intruder in half with it, it’s a beautiful thing. For women, however, a pillow which adds flair but serves no other purpose is purpose enough in itself.

I’m a bit odd about decorations.
Pillows left in the same spot when I leave my residence.
They are the first thing seen when walking into the room. Trust me, anyone comes into my residence and something is out of spot, I’m out of the house.
Had a scare years, actually, decades ago where I walked into my house, realized the front door was open and stupid me....CALLED THE POLICE from inside the house. I was still not used to having a cell phone.
That said, aside from security, I have a decoration system in place that will let me know if anything is off.
I laughed at someone (a guy!) for using that system.
I don’t laugh at it, anymore.
Oh. As an aside, we actually do have swords on our walls.
LOL
