Cleaning porn

If I’m flagging, I get myself domestically aroused by sticking on some cleaning porn such as ‘How Clean Is Your Home’ and the like. It quickly gets me in the mood.

For instance, about ten days ago I watched ‘The Minimalists’ on Netflix and now I have a front room full of stuff that I am going to sell/recycle/dump later today.

it’s titillating stuff!

Do you use cleaning porn, and if so, what is it?

Yep, how clean is your house or obsessive compulsive cleaners or a hoarder programme.

I also do this when I want to exercise and can't be bothered. Secret eaters, supersize v superskinny, my 600lb life etc. Put a bit of that on youtube and I'll be on my crosstrainer within half an hour.

Marie Kondo gets me going!

“Domestically aroused” - this phrase is going to make my week. Have you seen sort your life out on iplayer and there is Nick Knowles version on ITV.

I am aroused at the moment. I have just been to the tip, to the charity shop and am ironing eBay items. Then, some more porn before going at it hard on the cleaning front.

I love these shows. It’s hearing the squeak of the cloth as it’s dragged over a mirror. Watching the presenter’s face as they sniff the aroma of the antibac. The unburdening of a thorough declutter.

Really does it for me. 😁

I love “Clean with Me” YouTube videos - get me really motivated. I’m always really gobsmacked at how much some of them do all in one go - an entire house with 3 bathrooms/5 bedrooms etc. They are machines 😂

Mezmer · 22/10/2022 18:34

I will check that one out.

have had a massive day on it and even listed 13 things on eBay.

my lighting of the mandatory post clean candle has prompted ‘what for?’ looks from the fam.

more to do tomorrow.

It took me a minute to work out what the thread title meant. Honestly for a second thought it meant cleaning the boxes of nasty dvds and disinfecting dildos.

This was my thought also🤣.

Just had Scandish playing on YouTube while cleaning the bathroom

Gloucester15 · 23/10/2022 09:22

I also found Maid on Netflix good for making me want to clean

Mezmer · 23/10/2022 16:03

Gloucester15 I just checked out Scandish. That’s high class porn right there. I must admit after watching Dirty House Rescue yesterday I was a bit non plussed about that particular series and I think this is more to my taste.

Well I say non plussed but actually I was a bit upset. The house on DHR was beyond disgusting it was a health hazard and apparently there were two boys who lived there with the mum that you didn’t see and I got quite down about that thought.

Then presenter Hayley came up with her ‘C and D system’ which, wait for it, means ‘clean first disinfect after’, in case you couldn’t guess. Obviously due to the system’s complexity Hayley deems it requires an acronym.

Have a look at Honeyjubu on Youtube
It's very relaxing 😂.

Am just settling down to ‘get organised’ featuring a couple of American women who seem to be on some sort of drug.

I need some cleaning titillation as I spent an horrific afternoon in my loft yesterday looking for - and not finding - things I wanted; and finding a whole lot of things I didn’t. It was a low point I have to admit.

however, woke up feeling better and tackled two bin liners of junk, put free stuff on Facebook and a couple thing on eBay before work.

my recycling is full up with paper.

now doing a bit of voyeurism to keep the flame alight but am not sure these crazy ladies are gonna do much for me.

OP posts:
Mezmer · 28/11/2022 19:17

Ok, I don’t recommend this porn. I don’t want to offend anyone but I’m so glad I don’t live in America. They are so loud!

in this episode a team of five experts drove for a number of hours to help out a lady on a ‘pantry project’.

they ended up filling up a five foot by five foot space with more perishable items than a farm shop. Totally beyond the ingesting abilities of a fam of four. And colour coordinated in rainbow fashion. Very pretty. Completely impractical.

plus I have bleeding ears despite turning down the volume.

still, the see through jars they used have encouraged me to decant my muesli into an old coffee jar that I put through the dishwasher. It looks nicer that way than leaving it all in the packets.

OP posts:
Speedweed · 28/11/2022 19:29

I think I've seen the rainbow women show - I didn't find it satisfying as it all just seemed to be a lot of effort, time and consumption of new storage to make an area pretty but impractical - I think the episode I saw they spent hours sorting a kid's lego into rainbow colours.

Plus they over-labelled - no one needs to label a glass jar, that's why you use glass so you can see what's in it.

KatnissNeverdone · 28/11/2022 19:31

I've recently fallen into a professional cleaner rabbit hole on tiktok. There's a duo who work in the next town over who post a lot and have loads of finishing touches. I'd love for them to come and clean my house but as it is I'm left to buff my own bath taps and trying to learn toilet roll origami.

They get so much done in 2 hours whereas it's taken me from 9am to 3pm today for me to clean my house to an ok-ish standard.

beachcitygirl · 28/11/2022 19:34

@Mezmer is it "the home edit " on Netflix with an annoying blonde and a tall brunette? I love it!! They do reese witherspoons wardrobe soon GrinGrin

as this thread seems to have been resurrected; I kept getting the Finnish lady with bright DM style boots and very tight braids on my Insta but she did grab my attention coz she was cleaning small neglected rooms whereas to be fair a blooming dressing room/pantry/playroom/garage aren't relatable to me and just make me sad, I love how she seems to genuinely enjoy it which on a good day I do too. did I notice that Cheyza (sp) from OG UK cleaning porn turned up on dirty house rescue or whatever it was unthread or am I being silly? yes I'm sure I could Google but it's a discussion 😋

Mezmer · 30/11/2022 18:58

I think that’s where Cheyza came from: She was an OCD cleaner and then got ‘promoted’ to professional and host. Has anyone come across ‘Peachy’? She reliably comes up with banal tips for organising that are positioned as ‘revolutionary’ and will happily spend at least 7 minutes explaining a concept that most three year olds could grasp in 7 seconds.

Where can I find Dirty House Rescue? I too am domestically aroused by watching others

PingPongMerrilyWithPie · 01/12/2022 10:09

OP you've created a whole new genre of cleaning porn. I'm feeling stirrings just from reading this thread. How very meta.

I'm a traditionalist, I like But First Coffee and Minimalist Mom. Neither are strictly cleaning, but being talked to about productivity gets me going.
