I have always differentiated between “clean” and “cluttered”. I insist that the house be kept clean and I fully participate in that endeavor. (I was down on my hands and knees wiping crumbs off the kitchen floor just last night.)
However, clutter does not bother me. Cleanliness and neatness are two different issues, in my mind.

I am literally married to Mrs. Clean, and I doubt these findings.
She might be happier on the inside, but she mostly seems to fret over the stuff still needing attention.

I get very cranky when events interfere with my regular cleaning schedule.

I know why the ladies are happy. The ladies like Mister Clean.

There is a strong correlation with positive life outcomes and: high IQ, a high degree of conscientiousness.
Wanting to have your home in order and being industrious is conscientiousness. And that big 5 personality trait is correlated with having a stable family life, finances in order, not living on the desperate edge.
They’re mistaking correlation with cause.

How about people who enjoy not cleaning house and hiring others to do it for them. That makes me pretty happy.

I cleaned the bathtub this morning with Clorox. It’s a great product and better than the damn toothbrush that the DI made me use in bootcamp.
If Clorox needs a testimonial to that fact, I will do so on a stack of Bibles.

Not me. I hate house cleaning. Hate it. It’s the one real area the wife and I are at odds. I dunno... guess I’m just a caveman.

“The studys first component consisted of an online survey of 2,000 American adults which found that those who enjoyed the act of cleaning were 25% happier that those who did not”
I love cleaning the house...I can watch people doing it for hours.

My late mother and my wife and lots of other women I've known always used to say and the wife still does that it's important to make sure the house is clean before we go out somewhere ‘’in case somebody comes by.’’ If we're not home and somebody ‘’comes by’’ to me that means that somehow or another they've gained entry into the house. If this were ever the case the last damn thing in the world I'm going to be worrying about is whether or not this intruder found the house clean.

Alas, it looks like I’ll never be happy. My own theory is that if you neglect housecleaning, entropy will increase until it reaches a point of stasis and will never get worse. If you can live comfortably at that point you’ll never have to clean again.
