Why does it seem like every guy on ATOT has a female roomate?

i have a female roommate... actually, three female roommates (my roommate, her daughter, and her mother). before that, i only had one female roommate.

it's a LOT nicer to live with females than males... they're WAY cleaner and the bathrooms don't smell like piss.

this is my roommate
 
2 female room mates in their early very early twenties here. Everyone saying they are clean either has no experience with the subject or are blessed with better room mates than myself.

They are way messier than any guy I know, and they are always looking for someone to sympathize with the disaster of the day they are currently experiencing.
 
"Mom" doesn't count as a "female roommate".

I lived together with my last GF, but I don't quite count that the same. Female roommate = someone you're not in a relationship with (though might potentially be humping)

QFT. I'm living with 3 roommates, all girls.

..One is my sister.

Get me out of this hellhole.
 
Cuz every guy on ATOT is 6'2", totally ripped, has over 100 friends who would die for them, has a awesome job, drives a BMW and will have enough money to retire at 45.

Of, and of course have super-model roommates they have tantric sex with all the time!



















Or not...
 
I've lived with 2 girls at once. It was funny because I wasn't on the lease and wasn't supposed to be there so when the manager came around, I had to pretend I was visiting. But, I think the bed in the downstairs "living" room gave that away. :laugh:
 
I had a female roommate, it wasn't bad at all, except she had her bf over all the time, which got to be quite annoying

I have 2 females and 1 male roommates. Trust me, you DO NOT want to have female roommates....unless you want to deal with drama and nasty bathroom.

Female roommate is overrated like butt seck. You don't know how deep sheetz you into until it's too late.

You know, "seck" isn't a real work, neither is "sheetz". You can use real english words instead. No one will laugh.

When I had roommates I always picked women. They are cleaner and smell better.

the second part is true. the first...

'you don't thank me for cleaning up the house'
'why should i thank you for cleaning your own mess?'
 
I've had both male and female roommates. It doesn't really matter, to be honest.

A person's sex doesn't determine if they are a slob or clean or a good or a bad roommate. It's more about background and how they were raised.

1. living with a female
2. At least 6'2, 180lbs
3. Moved out at age 18

yeah, I'm not living with a female roomate, 6'1'' 170 and havent moved out yet and I'm 18. Sorry kids, moving into a dorm room doesnt count as "moving out."
 
I thought I was one of the few living with a female, but then I always read things like "my roommate.... she..." and it makes me wonder.

Yea, except mine is always at her bf's so it's like paying for a 2 bedroom apt for half price. Wewt. She comes home from work/school in the late afternoon, and once he gets out of work, she's outta here. So she's here maybe an hour or so? Sometimes she just stays on campus until he gets out of work. There have been periods where I don't see her for weeks (except in class). Hey, I gotta say I don't mind. It's just a little embarassing that I leave the apartment so messy though since it's practically mine.
 
it takes a certain kind of guy to be able to live with female roomates (not counting gf's or wives). usually effeminate and lacking in masculinity.

Is it a Three's Company fantasy or something?

No. I did live with them because they are a lot cleaner then most guys. Also most of my boys were party animals back then. One was friends girlfriend and her friend. The house rent was $475 but divided by 3 it was easy on our pockets. My firends lady slept over his house a lot more then she did our house. So that was cool.
Her friend was cool as hell. I tried to hit it a couple of times when her boyfriend did not come over. But I never got to before I had to move out 🙁 Oh and she use to cook all the time. She got out of a marriage before she moved in with us so she was use to it. I swear I gained 5 pounds two weeks after she moved in.

1. Was living with 2 females
2. 5'8 150
3. At the age of 17
 
Lived with two different females on different occasions. First one was really clean and pretty cool to be around, good roommate. Second one was a filthy annoying bitch. There was always a problem with something or someone... a real downer.
