Asking him to help in common areas or outdoors, or to pay rent or contribute to utilities is reasonable.

This!

Yes, a job he should have learned 20 years ago...

A 25 yr old who has a good full time job should get his own place.

Gotta be honest, OP: there would have been no need to ask this question in the first place had you trained your son to make his bed when he was five and reinforced the idea that being a member of a given household entails age/developmentally appropriate responsibilities that benefit the whole household, a message that boys/young men especially need to learn.

Do you still wipe his a$$ and blow his nose?

Is this a serious question? My child was expected to make their own bad by 5 years old.

Omg just shut the door
He’s an adult who cares.

Yes charge rent out it in a fund for him don’t tell him you did.

They should be *able* to make the bed. If they pay rent, they should have the option to close their bedroom door and not make the bed if they choose.

Of course it is not rude to expect all household members to share the chores. If he won't share the upkeep of the house, he shouldn't be allowed to live there.
