People who consider themselves "gym rats" go to the gym because it is what they do.

People who are mountain bikers don't ride to keep in shape, they look forward to getting on their bike.

Those are easy to see, but there are few people who clean their dishes for fun/leisure.

[sgillen]

I clean my dishes because I like having a clean / neat household, "I am the kind of person who keeps my space in order". I find that helps!

[johnchristopher]

I have met some of them. And I can say for certain I find using a dishwasher more fun than washing by hands. Even if it's family time etc. etc.

[paulclinger]

True, but I take loading a dishwasher as a puzzle to do it in the most compact/efficient way, which helps with adding enjoyment to the process.

[cvwright]

No but there are people who pride themselves on always keeping a clean kitchen etc

[PaulDavisThe1st]

For years, I was "a person who liked to ride my bike 300+ miles in a day". Then one day I realized that was a lie, or at least only a half-truth. Then I realized that most of why I did it was that I liked to keep in shape, and to eat a lot.

Somehow you've made a step in the exact opposite direction of what seems to be encouraged here. Does it still work out for you?
