Showers, for two reasons .... it's quicker and I don't have a bathtub. Occasionally, I would like to get in a tub, but I do that when I visit people with a bathtub. ;) :D
Showers, only and ever and very short showers. I hate water, I can't swim so just the thought of sitting in a tub of water is enough to make me squirm.
showwersssss can't stand baths, its like... wallowing in your own filth... ughhhh! lol
Showers. How else am I supposed to thoroughly wash my hair? It's so thick and long even though I keep getting it cut :rolleyes:
I prefer showers. I've tried taking bubble baths, but I always get bored after 5 minutes so I've decided it's just a huge waste of water!
I already voted/posted, however have more to add.
I used to love taking warm baths to relax, however now I take a shower with the water all the way to the hot side. It is one of the most relaxing things. I usually just stand there with my eyes closed for a few minutes before even begin washing.
I ALWAYS take one of these long showers after work. The warm water feels so good on my young (but, feeling old) bones!
Kay I do that sometimes too, but I sit down and just let the water hit me. That feels great after a rugby game or a tough day at work.Quote:

same here. I only shower when I am in a hurry, otherwise I take a bath, but its a habit. my old house had a claw foot bath, the only way we could shower was with the shower head that had this attachment that clipped on and off the faucet, so we had to sit in the tub and sprya water at ourselves. it was sort of a half bath half shower lol then for years when I lived in this house I only showered, but when the shower broke and was broken for many many many months it was take a bath or stay dirty lol when the shower was finally fixed, I was so used to baths that showers felt weird, so I continued with baths. even now when I shower, I tend to sit down lolQuote:
Baths. But it is probably more of habit than anything. For 13 years my husband and I lived in an appartment with no shower. (therefore, no choice) when we bought our house, the shower did not work and after the purchase and some improvements, fixing the shower was not a priority. Now that it works, I do the shower if in a hurry. Otherwise I just find it clumsy
Both! Now that I have running water whenever I want, I take showers every day, sometimes twice a day, and bubble baths at night a couple times a week.
Ditto! Nothing like a cool shower on a hot day, and nothing like a warm bath after a bad day;)Quote:

For baths, my grandmother would put a big washtub in front of the coal furnace in the kitchen and the kids would get bathed in it. She heated the water on her cook stove. The water wasn't changed between kids, we were just popped in then the water passed down to the next kid with more hot water added as needed.
It was gross but we lived through it. We had too!!! :D
Connie, I was just thinking about having to take a bath after my sister in the same water she used. YUCK! But I survived, too!

Both! They both feel nice. I couldn't care less.
