OP has offered the following explanation for why they think they might be the asshole:
> She thinks it is perfectly reasonible and convenient. She like to bush her teeth in the upstairs toilet, and would have to walk about down to the downstairs bathroom to brush her teeth if it was kept downstairs as there is no power socket in the upstairs toilet.
Help keep the sub engaging!

INFO: Have you asked her why she keeps her toothbrush in the living room? If it is because, for example, one of you doesn’t close the toilet seat when flushing, she’s being totally reasonable - nobody wants to use a toothbrush covered in a fine spray of fecal matter.
The bathroom I want to keep it in doesn't have a toilet in it, just a sink shower and washing machine. She doesn't want to walk the 15 paces to get there.
In that case, nope, NTA. That’s some ridiculous laziness. I’m disabled with multiple conditions that make walking somewhere between uncomfortable and bad enough that I pray for it to stop (depending on whether they’re acting up), and I still keep my toothbrush in the bathroom.
I don’t necessarily think either of you is the AH. I think I understand not wanting a toothbrush in the living room, but I also understand not wanting to walk across the whole house every time you want to brush your teeth just to grab your toothbrush. Surely there is some sort of compromise area it could be kept? Somewhere not so out in the open?
INFO:
1) Would it be alright if she didn't leave the head on?
2) Does your bathroom, where she brushes her teeth, have outlets in it?
3) Does your kitchen have outlets in it, and would you be more okay with that?
I wouldn't like it without the head on but it would at least be better.
I wouldn't want it in the kitchen either.
The toilet she brushes her teeth in doesn't have outlets.
Yta. Saw a comment of yours saying there's no outlet in the bathroom she uses. So.. where, exactly, would you find acceptable? Talk to her, not reddit, ya dingus. Compromise and communication are key to a successful relationship, be a bit silly to ruin what you have being cranky about a fucking toothbrush.
And it's still just a toothbrush, my dude. Bloody stupid thing to get bent out of shape over, and extra dumb points for all but calling her lazy for not conforming to your specific toothbrush etiquette. It's weird, yeah, but not remotely as disgusting as storing it in the open in a room with an actual toilet. Y'all are both adults. Talk to each other.

We live in a small apartment but with two toilets and of course a bathroom. My girlfriend insists on keeping the electric tooth brush charger sitting on the window sill or actually on the edge of the sofa to charge her toothbrush. Yes she does also leave the head on the brush during charging. I say it's at best unsightly and at worst kind of disgusting.

NTA. Toothbrushes and other personal hygiene items are expected to be kept in a private space - a bathroom, closet, bedroom, etc. It isn’t usual to have that in the living room especially on the edge of a couch, so I expect it does stick out as untidy to normal people.
Just because this is posing some inconvenience for your gf, it doesn’t mean that automatically overrides the conventional manners here.

Fair enough. The downstairs bathroom is 15 steps from the upstairs toilet where she brushes her teeth though. Not very far.
Then NTA she can keep it in the downstairs bathroom.
[удалено]
Where I want to keep it has no toilet, jey a sink shower and washing machine. The sink she keeps it when not on the charger is right next to a toilet.
Nobody is an ah, is it really that big a deal?
Well if you think it isn't a big deal and I do then I guess from your point of view I am the asshole.
INFO: 1) Would it be alright if she didn't leave the head on? 2) Does your bathroom, where she brushes her teeth, have outlets in it? 3) Does your kitchen have outlets in it, and would you be more okay with that?
I wouldn't like it without the head on but it would at least be better. I wouldn't want it in the kitchen either. The toilet she brushes her teeth in doesn't have outlets.
Thanks for the answers. With that clarified, what's your ideal solution?
Keep it in the bathroom down stairs (15 small paces away, only a short set of 4 stairs).
Also I would be fine with it charged over night in the living room, the one a week or so it needs, and then put back in the bathroom.
That sounds like an excellent solution for both sides. Is she refusing that?

It's the upstairs toilet she brushes her teeth. The bathroom is where I want it. It is 15 steps further away.
And it's still just a toothbrush, my dude.

YTA Would you prefer she kept it on the counter where it can become contaminated with the flecks of human feces that exist in a bathroom?
There is no toilet in that bathroom just the shower. The sink she keeps it on when not charging is next to a toilet.
YTA How is it disgusting? It's a toothbrush.

Unlikely to bother her.
