What's meant by the term clean freak?

Answer 1

A person is called a clean freak if they are constantly cleaning things. They want to have a spottless house, office, etc. It is usually meant as a deregatory term, but some people take pride in their "freakiness."We define clean freaks a little differently. Our definition is: someone who is physically calmer in a clean home versus a messy or cluttered home. It's more of a state versus an action (e.g., cleaning all the time). Also some clean freaks hire services or use products that make sure their homes are always tidy so don't have to clean all of the time. (p.s., we're some of those mentioned above who don't think "clean freak" is a derogatory term and definitely take pride in it!). -- Carol
