I've posted this is women's sexual health, but anyone with long hair or living with someone who has long hair is more than welcome to comment.
My hair is hip-length and though it is fine in terms of strand thickness, it's very thick in terms of density. This inevitably means that when I wash my hair, some of it winds up stuck in the shower drain. During college, I lived with three different sets of roommates, all of whom were male with short hair, and I always took it upon myself to make sure that the drains were clean. I figured that since it was unlikely that they were contributing very much to the problem (though one of them had so many women over that he very well might have done so more than me) it was my responsibility even though it was a totally icky job (especially since the drains were NEVER clean when we moved in).
That being said, I did far more cooking than anyone else I lived with, but I was never responsible for taking out the trash. I made it clear when I moved in with my roommates that I prefer to take on other chores. I don't like taking out the trash, and I will pawn it off on someone else for as long as I don't live alone. I find cleaning the shower drain to be equally disgusting, but since I know that I'm not alone in that (and none of my roommates cared much about trash disposal), it somehow seems like a much more doable task.
What about you guys? Since there are so many different situations in which one could find oneself, I'm
