I see lots of cases of women complaint about their men’s subpar hygiene but they don’t leave to the best of my knowledge. And it confuses me. But I think it has to do with gender socialization. Men are socialized to be messy. Women are socialized to clean it up or toilerate it. One women told me her husband sprayed the toilet like a power washer. But she left not because of that but because of his abuse and infidelity and self destructive behaviors.
