Why do SOME men think that sweeping dirt etc. in a corner or under a rug is cleaning?

Why do SOME men think that sweeping dirt etc. in a corner or under a rug is cleaning?
Or moving junk to a closet instead of putting it away, etc.

I DO KNOW that some women are the same, its not only men. But I have noticed almost every man I have ever known "cleans" in similar ways. I dont mean any offence at all, I am just honestly curious. Thanks

I'm lucky enough to have a husband who was raised to do both! He can even sort laundry and vacuum the corners of the room with the hose! He's very domesticated, lol.

mich_wlvrins:  Most men think along the lines of "out of sight. out of mind". At least I know I do but I don't clean like that.
