Do I move to house with women or men?

    I'm looking at renting a room and up to now I've lived with the brother, now I'm looking for a place again and I have a choice between taking a house with women or a couple of blokes?
    What are the good and bad of both?
    I'm a bloke, and I'm just wondering are women cleaner/easier to live with etc or am i better off in the company of like minded men who are on the lash four nights a week.
    Will my head be wrecked living with chicks?...all those crazy hormones et al?
    What you reckon folks?

    I'd say living with women could be a right pain. What about a mixture?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    As tempting as the chick house may be, I'd say the novelty would wear off pretty sharpish. They're certainly no cleaner than blokes in my experience and in some cases are a lot less clean (both on a personal hygeine level and a domestic one).

    That said, living in a house full of lads brings it's own set of problems....permanent sessions being only one (there are those who'd claim this is far from a problem, but if you're intent on trying to get enough rest/sleep for a days work or studying then I'd say it is)

    As Binomate suggested try going for a mix....both sexes tend to be a lot better behaved and take better care of the place when faced with an environment of latent sexual tension and the possibility of social embarassment.

    Good luck with whatever you decide...

    they are filthy, they leave their bras and towels all over the place, not to mention wreaking the bathroom

    Mixes is whats required to keep the peace

    It depends on the person, not the gender. Meet both groups and see which one seems to have the best vibe.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,942 ✭✭✭missingtime


    I remember I was all up for living with girls (mostly cos they were hot) but in the end it was the most frustrating thing ever. Granted the were tidy but all they ever watched was soaps. Home and Away followed by Emerdale followed by god knows what other crap is on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,648 ✭✭✭dundalk cailin


    still, not all girls r like that. i think there's good and bad points for both


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    Move in with the men, guys are much easier to get on with. As long as you're not either a former alcoholic, or have a family history of alcoholism, it will be great! Living with women is a complete pain, and much less craic.

    Just make sure you're moving in with people you like...

    Find out what star signs they are first!!! :)
    Have to be compatible there b4 anything else!

    That said...as a woman I would want to live with a mix....
    I hate living with other women as a rule........
    I am the master of my own domain!! ;)

    says the cailin with the friends quote in her sig:D

    anyway, on point, the mixture is the key. Blokes to go on the lash with, girls to talk to, in order to get the insider knowledge of the fairer sex

    ...bloody hell, im hammered and typing posts on the internet, while getting mashed...i have supreme thanks to the spell check

    I'd go with the lads! I'm living with 5 people 2 of which are girls! All they say is turn off that xbox, Clean up (the house is clean)! They even gave out to the landlord about us! Girls are to much hassle!

    I won't live with girls again!

    Were actuall quiet clean! Its just one of the girls is a neat freak and the other one just does what she says!

    The best advice I ever got was 'never share a house with women'.

    I was told they:

    1) Take over the bathroom with their crap.

    2) They move in, and the boyfriend moves in too....unofficially if you know what I mean.

    The advice was given to me by a sound lady.
