I suppose he’s never had to clean his own toilet?

Voluntarily you mean?

Are there people who are forced to clean their own toilets?

Well, nagging could count as compulsion. πŸ˜‚

πŸ˜‚ yes!

From necessity

There is only voluntary or involuntary.

Necessity is involuntary i guess

It is not an objective measure.

We can refuse to do necessary things.

That's not the point. Aristotle said men do something they think is good or pleasant. It's good to clean your toilet, but it comes from necessity not pleasure.

Right?

That would be "removing that which seems evil". In this case, germs.

I think not, because in that case good equals pleasure and Aristotle would not have to distinguish good and pleasure cases. So i fuck because that gives me pleasure, i clean the toilet because it's good.

One can argue that everything is involuntary: one cause and all effects. In the realm of man: no man creates himself nor instils passion within and guidance beyond.

Well, yes, as a theology.

"For I reckon among good things the removal of that which is evil or seems evil, or the exchange of a greater evil for a less, because these two things are in a way desirable; in like manner, I reckon among pleasant things the removal of that which is or appears painful, and the exchange of a greater pain for a less."

Cleaning the toilet improves sanitation, so it is a labor exchange of the bad for the less-bad.

Yes, we are in agreement.
