A woman shared her 11-point list of ‘green flags in a man’s apartment’ and we’re not sure if these replies say more about men – or women

Here’s a rather fabulous thing that’s just gone viral on Twitter, and that’s not a phrase we use so often as we did back in the day.

It’s this American woman who shared her 11-point list of ‘green flags in a man’s apartment’, 11 things to suggest that you might be on to a good thing.

Here they are again, just in case it’s tricky to read in full.

Green Flags in a Man’s Apartment:

1. Expensive candles
2. Nice hand soap
3 Actual toilet paper, not a single-ply situation (recession indicator
4. No clothes on the floor
5. No dishes in the sink
6. Uses face wash (bonus points if it’s not 3-in-1)
7. Owns a hairbrush
8. Plants that are alive
9. Wine glasses that aren’t stolen from a bar
10. Clean sheets (that smell like detergent, not “boy”)
11. More than two things in the fridge -and none of them are expired

It went viral – wildly viral – and we’ve read all the responses (well, quite a few of them) so you don’t have to and these people surely said it best.
