/meh·soj·uh·nee/ — noun — ★ Maldacity Original
The domestic double standard in which a man’s mess is “just how he is” but her request to clean it is “controlling,” “OCD,” or “uptight.” Reframes basic hygiene as her problem and his filth as a personality trait.
“She asked him to clean the bathroom before her parents visited. He said ‘you’re so OCD.’ The toilet had visible discoloration. She’s not OCD, sir. You declared a biohazard a lifestyle choice and called her the extremist.”
Rated a 9.3 and honestly that’s generous.
