Unusual Things Married Couples Fight Over #2

or

Before you were married, you never thought you would fight over this

#2 Bathroom clutter

Perhaps the modern metrosexual man is an exception to this but, in general men seem to be bathroom minimalists. The general necessities for bathroom going include toilet paper, hand soap, a toothbrush/toothpaste, a towel, shampoo and bath soap and shaving items. In an average-size bathroom these will take up almost no space, leaving an uncluttered bathroom and an, if not pleasant, at least not frustrating bathroom-going experience.

Women, on the other hand, seem to have an almost psychotic urge to fill whatever bathroom space exists. Regardless of the size of the bathroom, rest assured, it will be completely filled with...stuff. Once all the 'necessities' are moved in (and I have no idea what most of those 'necessities' are), if there is still visible open space, a woman will proceed to introduce all variety of small, colourful, often smelly and generally in the way, decorative objects. All of this has the result of turning a once simple room into a cluttered mess.

Is there any surprise men don't like to wash the bathroom? The shear volume of objects to move for completing the task is almost overwhelming.
