Men and tupperware
Do men just have like an allergy to tupperware? Putting it away in particular. My husband empties the dishwasher, stacks the tupperware up...then leaves it on the counter. I think he doesn't understand how the tupperware drawer works...
Anyone else?
ps..please note, it does not have to be tupperware brand plastic storage containers, other brands are available.

Re: Men and tupperware
My sister always complains about how my BIL doesn't appreciate the value of Tupperware - he treats it like the disposable stuff. 
All of ours goes in a drawer and is stacked by size. Dh never puts it away - i think he's afraid I'll tell him it's "wrong"

OMG, YES!!!
I thought it was just our house
ETA: I think a 12 step program is in order. Judging by the amount of responses this is an epidemic

Re: Men and tupperware
DH has a love/hate tupperware relationship - he either goes all OCD and rearranges the entire tupperware cabinet - or leaves them stacked up and won't put them away

Re: Men and tupperware
OMG, PIMP.....That is my DH too. I am not sure what the issue is, I think it's the same one he has about brining more toilet paper into the bathroom.

Re: Men and tupperware
My DH always loses mine when he brings his lunch to work in them. They seem to disappear!

Re: Men and tupperware
I always stack the tupperware (and the pots and pans) in the correct cabinets, in the correct order. It's not that hard, really. There's often no other way to put them in the cabinet. I think they are just being lazy.....

Re: Men and tupperware
OMG!!! This is so my husband. He will put other stuff away, except for tupperware and pots and pans. It drives me INSANE!!!!!!! He puts a dishtowel on the table and stacks it all up on there, leaving us with no room to eat or anything!!!!
How hard can it be??? THEN he has a habit of putting random stuff INSIDE the clean tupperware..Megans shapes from her shape sorter, random spoons, I even found 2 bananas in there once. WHAT THE H ELL???????????

GoldenRod,
Do you think you'd be willing to teach a class in this?
We can hold it as an official LIF GTG...
Maybe we should have it at Appliance World.
Every DH would have his own dishwasher to empty with assorted items to put away in the display cabinets.
Can't remember exactly how many they have on display but I can call the owner tomorrow

Only if the guys who don't "pass" have to put on a pair of gloves and go a few rounds with me on the mat...
