    "You don't know what you don't know"

    This should be everyone's mantra when online dating. I hate when people see red flags in everything. There could be dozens of reasons why a man would check off "must be clean." In all likelihood, he has had a previous relationship with slob (yes, slobs are not confined to the male gender). If you are worried about the oral sex thing, maybe you should ask about it instead of assuming.
